  • Hey! In this FUNNY :D video I’m going to carry on with the series of experiments with burning magnesium, changing the liquids I’m putting it into. And all of this is going to be in SLOW-MO.
    0:00 Intro
    0:28 Hydrogen peroxide
    1:47 Liquid ammonia
    3:54 HCl
    5:00 CH2Cl2
    5:32 CHCl3
    6:24 CCl4
    🎥⌚️ Shooting slow-mo video requires a lot of financial costs💵, so if you enjoy what I do, and would like to help me to buy chemical reagents and equipment, as some of my viewers do, I will be glad to see you as a member of my Patreon ❤️ 💛 💚

    • @philouzlouis2042
      @philouzlouis2042 2 года назад +2

      Maybe reaction could/would be even more energetic by allowing concentrated/saturated NaOH or solid NaOH hydrate prills to fall into concentrated H2SO4 :o)
      When at the chemistry lab at university we dropped a few ml 96% H2SO4 onto solid KOH prills into a beaker itself put inside the lab ceramic drain... the prills were whistling with a very strong hissing noise and dancing/gliding/spinning/jumping and vibrating all arround... probably a consequence mix of excessive heat, vaporization of water, water formation, salt formation, dehydration.
      Of course, lab coat, googles and gloves on ... and only tiny amounts (10 ml and 10 gr)...

    • @metaphysicalretardation
      @metaphysicalretardation 2 года назад +7

      ​@@philouzlouis2042 I have actually tried dropping some solid NaOH into conc. H2SO4 a couple times out of pure curiosity, but not much happened. Now when you mention what you saw, I think nothing happened when I did it due to the liquid pulling out heat so fast that the temp couldn't rise enough to do anything interesting.
      I might try this again one time like you described it.
      On another note, I found it to be quite an interesting effect to drop some NaOH beads into dilute H2SO4 with some phenolphtalein. The beads slowly dissolve and leave trails of pink which quickly disappear. Basically like pink underwater smoke.

    • @atrumblood
      @atrumblood Год назад +1

      They really do try to make it seem like a catastrophic mistake.
      I remember Cody doing a video about that and he found it difficult to get much of a reaction, only when he heated both water and acid did he get a significant reaction.

    • @LogjammerDbaggagecling-qr5ds
      @LogjammerDbaggagecling-qr5ds Год назад

      They dont say not to do that because of the chemical reaction between acid and water, they say that because some acids can be heated well beyond the boiling point of water, so it's like throwing water in to hot oil. Like concentrated sulfuric acid doesn't boil until somewhere around 600F. Go throw some water in to that and tell me again how the danger is overblown.

    Only: using a scoop with a longer and bent shaft would make these operations safer. You could then place (another) protection layer between you and the point of action. Especially with CCl4, it could also detonate and then expand into all directions, not only up.

    So let me guess that the last reaction is a displacement reaction:
    2Mg + CCl4 ---> 2 MgCl2 + C
    You can see solution turning black and the black smoke is the carbon powder being created. Also, this seems to be the most vigorous reaction of all the chloromethanes as it contains the most chlorine.

  • @lajoswinkler
    @lajoswinkler 2 года назад +10

    Literature often repeats certain things and they become factoids as hardly anyone ever tested them. One of the examples is the explosion of reactive metals with carbon tetrachloride. People often think explosion means literally "will detonate on small scales" and that's simply not true. Not only explosion ≠ detonation (detonations and deflagrations are a subset of explosions) but small scales and big industrial vats make a huge difference.
    Thank you for making these videos, they are highly useful.

    Carbon tet was used in fire suppression devices for ages.
    I did work in our courthouse attic in the 1970s and there were sealed glass bulbs full of it hanging from the rafters.
    The theory was that a fire would break the bulbs and the CCl4 would vaporize to smother the fire.
    Same principle as a Halon system.

    beautiful as always, seeing the finer details in slow mo, and compared to what you miss in the blink of an eye is amazing.
    makes me think some of these reactions however, with ammonia and oxygen, now under regular earth conditions these are nice , but with exochemistry, differing pressures , i wonder how some of these may react under intense pressure, and then could be even more volotile.
    Considering other planets biologigy and to start before that planetary chemistry , pressure, temp, gravity all play varing roles. so i do wonder how such extra terestrial chemistry when they do interact might play out in differing planetary bodies and variations.

    • @cmdrpanpiper6415
      @cmdrpanpiper6415 2 года назад

      many of them will react with gaseous , so creating explosive bubble over the beaker situations, but if the pressure would not allow gases and they are contained by pressure , ....
      such variations as these intruige me. although ttrying to get this down before i forget the train of thought as always.

    The other problem with CCl4 besides it's native toxicity is that under certain
    fire conditions it could produce phosgene. When i was a kid it was still used as a degreaser as well.
    And on magnesium, wonderful stuff for pyrotechnics, but a machinist friend of mine worked at a shop where a lot of Mg turnings accumulated. It ended up in a small metal dumpster which was intended for recycling, but one day a fire started in it, which burned brightly but more or less in a contained way until someone panicked and sprayed water on it....not a good idea.

    For the beauty of it and for completeness of the experiment... would have been nice to add to the list of solvents to avoid with preheated magnesium powder:
    -hydrazine (N2H4 more bang than NH3)
    -ethylene tetrachloride (C2Cl4 an extra C vs CCl4 so more black fume)
    -chloropicrine/trichloronitromethane (Cl3C-NO2 more heat, explosive power)
    -trichloronitroethylene (Cl2C=CCl(NO2)) (blacker and more power)
    -solid candle with stoechiometric mix of Mg powder and hexachloroethane (Cl3C-CCl3 or C2Cl6...usually used in white smoke bombs...) would be fierce black smoke supervolcano :o) or nova.

      It would be interesting to see if you could provoke a cold mix of magnesium and tri or tetrachloromethane into ignition.
      Or somehow form trichloramine in situ or pour it onto cold magnesium powder from a safe distance.
      Probably not a nice experience if it was done in normal glassware/fume hood.
