@scrappydoo7887 Nile Red did a cleanup video on it, and it was awesome. Considering how much volatility there is in this video, it would be good to see what he did, eg. with the fumes. Are the filters in his fumehood now considered radioactive waste?
As a nuclear chemist, this was very fun to watch :) I would never have the space and equipment in the lab to film such high quality footage. However I would have liked you said some words about the "UO4" being a bit misleading as its better described as UO2O2. UO4 is empirically speaking correct but makes it seem that there might be a octavalent Uranium present (which is not the case). Greetings from the nuclear lab in cologne^^
You know its peak chemistry when several uranium compounds, HF, Anhydrous N2H4 and CO are all shown in same vedio. Not to mention, boiling Uranyl nitrite.
He made nuclear fuel from Factorio! In that game, it's a combustible fuel that is made by combining Uranium 235 with "rocket fuel" (which is made by combining "light oil" and "solid fuel", which in turn appears to be just carbon). It's the most powerful and space efficient fuel in the game.
arguably nuclear fuel isn’t the most space efficient because it only has a stack size of 1 - a full stack of 20 rocket fuel has more fuel content than one nuclear fuel
Great stuff!! A bit dangerous for the danger/beauty trade-off, but still solid entertainment and very interesting!! I do love the sparkling-shower-of-stars in slow motion.. I think that's my fav content from you in general: slow motion fireworks (that in real time look like a poof, and you'd NEVER know how beautiful it was w/o the slowmo).
I never though I'd see reactions with uranium compounds on youtube but man you can make anything possible. Also you once said that antimony could show chemiluminescence, is it true?
There are already lots of comments about radioactive fumes and dust, and yes as a former worker in a radiation controlled facility I also got some goosebumps when seeing the Uranium evaporate but not seeing a negative pressure glovebox... Anyhow, many people on the world have been exposed to Uranium dusts, like soldiers affected by depleted Uranium ammunition, like workers in Uranium mining or even workers in nuclear fuel processing plants. There are a lot of cases where people suffered from long time exposition to this kind of stuff. That´s why the gut feeling tells, one single day of experiments will probably not kill you. But keep in mind that incorporating and especially inhaling even small amounts is not giving you extra health...

Maybe test the effects of radiation on silver salts or a chamber with alcohol vapors? Make some uranium hexafluoride or react uranium oxides with other reducing agents like alkaline metals, lithium hydride, borohydride,etc. Electrolize a small amount. It's not everyday that one can work with uranium salts.
@@ChemicalForce I though that might be the case, thought maybe you created it beacause of this video and will continue to use it. Anyway, thanks for replying, and great video (as always)!
Interesting. Some years ago when the channel Explosions and Fire was effectively creating The Periodic Table of Thermite, I suggested they try a uranium oxide with aluminum. I suggested they be very careful as well (seems they passed on that one - can't imagine why 🙂)
As a chemistry graduate who hasn't worked Iin the field I'm intrigued as to how you deal with the waste. As an undergraduate we perhaps did a couple of reactions using Uranium (1980s) but there was never any discussion as to ultimate disposal although I'm fairly sure it didn't go down the lab sink as all activities took place in a fume hood even though there were no volatile products.. I get it that you concentrate and solidify into less harmful, perhaps insoluble salts, but ultimate disposal? Where's the 'kin around with Radioactive Materials Disposal Agency, so to speak? Before my time but that Sodium reaction was used as a determination for sodium in analytical chemistry.
@toseltreps1101 then it was as anticlimactic as going to what's supposed to be the next nightmare on elm street and they instead play Cinderella, definitely not what I expected, but still it was good

Causes some damage because of the linear hypnosis of radiation. The danger becomes statistically smaller but never goes away. Unlike salt, which is poisonous when large amounts are ingested but harmless in small amounts.

(Although TBF, I wouldn't wanna breath in that smoke either lmao...) xD
Hydrazine is extremely reactive, but most uranium compounds are remarkably stable chemically. Compared to ammonia and literally anything containing chlorine, it'd be pretty tame, especially if the product is the terrifying yellow abomination known as nitrogen trichloride.
When I noticed it was about uranium and your channel I got very excited lol. If I can make a suggestion I had the same geiger and It's eh. Get yourself a radiacode 102 it's worth the investment. Your sample would probably read a bit more spicy, and you could get a spectrum of it. Great vid btw

Soluble uranium compounds are actually dangerous whereas insoluble kinds will go straight through your system and out the other end.

Causes some damage because of the linear hypnosis of radiation. The danger becomes statistically smaller but never goes away. Unlike salt, which is poisonous when large amounts are ingested but harmless in small amounts.
Try uranyl nitrate with hydrazine if you think it will decompose to oxidize the hydrazine.
Which uranium oxide and Al would make the best thermite? (Obviously the Mg/UF4 Ames process is the commercial process.)
Ya I was really hoping he'd show this reaction or at least reduce to some uranium metal.

What is clear is that the use of nuclear fuel is bad, especially if there is user error or an accident.
