finally someone who is smart enough to capitalize on the lack of exotic chemical video's on youtube. you've really found a gap in the market for high quality production videos about rare and expensive chemical reactions
Never in my days at school or college did we ever get the opportunity to witness such reactions, in such great detail and at such amazingly slow shutter speeds. Thanks for sharing this quite unique view into chemistry and the relationships involved between some very rare, expensive and exotic chemicals.
I know fluorine can be contained in certain fluorine-based materials, I wonder if you could possibly use such a vessel and condense some of the fluorine into its liquid form. THAT would be impressive, and you'd probably be the first person on RUclips to do actual reactions with liquid fluorine!
for making fluorine gas alone you must have balls of iridium, and is really impressive, but to make liquid fluorine anywhere you are just absolutely crazy to me rocket scientists in the 60-70s shown that it inst a good idea
The man with the most exotic elements and compounds you have never heard of before! Thanks a lot! Btw, do you work for Sigma-Aldrich, or live next to the shelves with the rarest substances?
To get chemicals from Sigma-Aldrich, Sigma Millipore, Merck and all affiliated names you have to undergo an extensive screening process and prove that you are able to store the materials safely and you are able to use them safely and correctly... Source: I work for Sigma Aldrich
@@smivv02 is there a specific reason why Sigma has been having trouble with the purity of many of their products over the past few years? I know a number of chemists who have bought reagents that haven't nearly been the quality claimed by the company.

We really enjoyed this video, fluorine in one of the most interesting elements, and you don't get to it or it's reactions everyday - especially in this photogenic of a manner. Btw, retail price for the CoF3, MnF3, and CeF4 is $190 in total. Thulium powder was probably at least $10/gram.
Your videos are not just interesting for chemists, they are also a great reference resource for people interested in computer graphics and animation of physical phenomena.
Please try that experiment with charcoal instead of Magnesium powder. Igniting a substance which is not known to be reactive would be more fun than igniting a combustible metal powder.
I know that these reactions are being conducted in tiny volumes with proper safety equipment, but whenever I see chemical reactions with "HF" or "F2" on the product side, I flinch involuntarily. Beautiful chemistry though. Thanks for showing us this stuff!!!
Amazing reactions, fluorine is one of my favourite elements, thank you! I have a suggestions for the next video: what if you did reactions with PtF6? It was used to make the first noble gas compound, xenon hexafluoroplatinate.
I remember subbing to you when you only had a couple of videos and under 1000 subs with someone finding you and posting a video on Explosions and Fire discord a couple years ago.. How time flies, you're nearly at 100k now
I dunno how, but a few days back, I remember seeing a video where they showed all the four halogens (yes, Fluorine included), in transparent containers. The fluorine didn't look particularly remarkable, just colorless, with the slightest tinge of yellow. I have no idea how, but there do seem to be certain transparent materials impervious to fluorine. For those curious, here's the video: ruclips.net/video/u2ogMUDBaf4/видео.html
A lot of these fall into the category of "cursed pyrotechnic compositions" 🤣 ... so pretty - and so full of fluorine, hydrofluoric acid, and other closely related friends!
You are the undisputible king of chemical reaction videos. Thios comes in second to you. Though nerdrage gets the academy award in the nerd category for his potassium creation video
I would really like to know how very inert chemical substances, such as boron nitride, various carbides, etc., will interact with very strong oxidizing agents, such as fluorinated acids or other fluorine compounds... Theorists in lectures sometimes talk about unusually strong covalent bonds . And it’s curious - will the oxidizing properties of fluorine be stronger than these bonds?..
Where do you find information about such a strange compounds, is there any book about it? What is your favorite inorganic chemistry book? Thanks for your films!

Once again an amazing video. You blow me away with all the exotic compounds you show
I know fluorine can be contained in certain fluorine-based materials, I wonder if you could possibly use such a vessel and condense some of the fluorine into its liquid form. THAT would be impressive, and you'd probably be the first person on RUclips to do actual reactions with liquid fluorine!
If it is pure fluorine, it will still fluorinate Teflon into CF4, but if you dilute it sufficiently in nitrogen or argon, it should be fine
They didn't do experiments with it, but periodic videos did create some liquid fluorine just to look at.
for making fluorine gas alone you must have balls of iridium, and is really impressive, but to make liquid fluorine anywhere you are just absolutely crazy to me
rocket scientists in the 60-70s shown that it inst a good idea
I've seen two or three videos with that reaction. Even one reacting it with caesium
It's cool to see these compound that I've only known by their appearance in Wikipedia articles come to life.
The addition of the high speed footage makes everything look better, and thank you for sharing your videos and knowledge.
You're one of the greatest creators of chemistry content, on this website or any other! Fantastic video!
I stopped the video halfway, just to hit like and tell you how beautiful this is! Your work just keeps getting better, it's crazy how good it is.🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆
this is definitely some of the best chemistry content out there. looking forward to when you get even more famous!

Maybe he is rich dad
The most exotic chemicals man in the world. He doesn't always burn things but when he does it's exotic chemicals.

Wow, it's awesome!!! The Best Chemistry Channel that I've ever seen on YT!!! Glad to see your videos more)
Not only is this an informative video~
it’s a piece of art.
omg i have been waiting for this video for so long
thank you so much for making this
Got to love a guy who casually liberates fluorine.
Respect.
you can also do AgF2 - I think the decomp onset is like ~300ish celcius
its insanely expensive though
The production values of these videos are off the charts. I especially love your music selection. Brilliant 👏👏👏

Normal Chemists: " I fear no man... but that thing..." *FLUORINE* "..It scares me"
ChemicalForce: Haha Fluorine go BRRRRRRRR
oh wow. i've been waiting for you to do some fluorine chemistry-and, as ever, you absolutely don't disappoint :)
Your videos are not just interesting for chemists, they are also a great reference resource for people interested in computer graphics and animation of physical phenomena.
No special “fluorine-lab” but still, YOU can produce fluorine reactions. Great job! Thanks man..
Why so pessimistic ?...
Electrolysis of molten fluorine salts, no ?
Please try that experiment with charcoal instead of Magnesium powder. Igniting a substance which is not known to be reactive would be more fun than igniting a combustible metal powder.
Amazing work! Precipitation reactions are still my favorite. Simple yet so compelling. Can't wait for the next one
absolutely top notch content and cinematography i can NOT praise you enough :) keep up the excellent workk my friend
i just love how he puts epic background music in his videos, that's amazing

My god. First time I've ever seen these! Keep up da good work my man. Next time do a vid on phosphorus pentasulfide!!! ❤ from Bangladesh!!!
If you had some LN2, you could liquify the F2. bp is -188 °C.
But it is probably safer to liquify chlorine.
I've missed your videos, glad you're back
Hey Aldrich Sigma, did you ever think of shooting cinematic ads for your chemicals? We've got a talent here!
It's absolutely criminal this channel doesn't get millions of views
Wow good video keep making them. I am still waiting for that day when we will See ClF3 on the video.
Remember using CoF3 for organic chemistry to add fluorine to stuff. It had a tendency to overdo it. Tends to make perfluorinated compounds. 🤓
I have a pure chemical joy to watch this video. Thank you very much!
Are we closer to chorine trifluoride
absolutely great, top notch work, a sheer pleasure to watch
Your videos look absolutely amazing on my TV. Wow.
Wow, thanks!
His ability to choose the music is frightening .
perfect exposure on the slow mo, good job!
Awesome video please send more videos regarding rest of the metals of periodic table which were not discussed
Top notch chemical content and video quality!
I have started directing my students to your channel :D
I love your videos ❤
I remember subbing to you when you only had a couple of videos and under 1000 subs with someone finding you and posting a video on Explosions and Fire discord a couple years ago..
How time flies, you're nearly at 100k now
Done! 💯
@@ChemicalForce nice one, well deserved
Fantastic reactions, fantastic montage
Came for the fluorine, stayed for the thulium.
Awesome!! It reminds me of the volcano reaction with the decomposition ammonium dichromate….🤔
Excellent demonstration
I dunno how, but a few days back, I remember seeing a video where they showed all the four halogens (yes, Fluorine included), in transparent containers. The fluorine didn't look particularly remarkable, just colorless, with the slightest tinge of yellow.

Inorganic chemistry doesn't get enough love. Those were some really fun reactions.
Inorgo is seen as merely a display of cool colours to some though.
Thank you. 15:36 your video cuts with music are getting good. 👍
Another perfect video. Thank you!!!
Great job!! This is wonderful content
That brown cobalt triflouride looks a lot like a different, expensive chemical I used to really enjoy the smell of. 😅
This is the first time I've seen some Thulium used in an experiment that wasn't ABOUT Thulium. You just had some lying around? 😀
Thank you so much sir for this video... Love from India 🇮🇳
This kind of video are so fantastic. Love u from italy
ClF3 coming soon?
Right after IF7 or BrF5 sure
BrF3 would be nice
awesome video!!!
if I may request a video topic - anhydrous perchloric acid.
A lot of these fall into the category of "cursed pyrotechnic compositions" 🤣
... so pretty - and so full of fluorine, hydrofluoric acid, and other closely related friends!
Please react liquid fluorine with an interesting organic peroxide or decaborane?. Any chance of high number fluorine interhalogen? IF 7 if you dare?
Wish I had this man for a chemistry teacher
This is so amazing
Please make a video regarding different types of acid
You are the undisputible king of chemical reaction videos. Thios comes in second to you. Though nerdrage gets the academy award in the nerd category for his potassium creation video
Royal thanks 👑
it would be cool if you could get Manganese(IV)fluoride too.
I would really like to know how very inert chemical substances, such as boron nitride, various carbides, etc., will interact with very strong oxidizing agents, such as fluorinated acids or other fluorine compounds... Theorists in lectures sometimes talk about unusually strong covalent bonds . And it’s curious - will the oxidizing properties of fluorine be stronger than these bonds?..
I have zero interest in chemistry but your videos are amazing!!! Instant sub
You should try doing experiments with uranium someday but in a lab
Nice reactions and music!
Fantastic video! Thank you!
Fulminic acid is a very unusual and not popular acid and not goo many videos of reactions exist. Can you please do some reactions with it ?
Next please make a video on anhydrous hydrogen fluoride if you can
If you want to go for unique chemical reactions fluorine is definitely the way to go!! 🔥🔥
15:20 - But could it not be that magnesium reacted with the oxygen of the air to a greater extent? ..
9:26 I’m guessing manganese(vii) fluoride wouldn’t be possible simply because that wouldn’t fit into a reasonable crystal structure
Such a show off! Love it
Fluoro thermite reactions, nice!
fluorine !! yesss!! Finally!!!!
NICE EXPERIMENT VIEWS WITH
NEW INFORMATIONS 👍👍👍👍
Как всегда лучший
Missing silver(II) fluoride(AgF2)
very hard to get 😞
Would super heating tungsten fluoride yield hot solid tungsten and fluorine gas? This method is not very efficient.
If you see the labels ond/or screwcap are degraded but the jar is still new, you know exciting times are ahead ;-)
Why are the transition metal fluorides so much more reactive than the alkali and alkali earth fluorides?
wait, i know it wanst visible here, but, fluorine is greenish-yellow?
for some reason i always thought pure fluorine was either colorless or blue
Nice video
you please tell me the simple method to make sb2(so3)3 and sb2(so3)5
Can you show reactions of ammonium fluoride complex compounds of metals? I mean something like (NH4)2SiF6, (NH4)2TiF6, (NH4)2ZrF6 etc.
And what are the highest Gold and Silver fluorides? And could you show some PtF6/UF6?))
For an element that hangs out right next to Chromium on the periodic table... I expect more colors from Manganese than just purple and brown.
CoF3 and S, is the first time I see such interesting looking reaction.......by the way, fluorine chemistry is a nightmare for me in Ochem.....
Someone willing to work with fluorine, eh? Perhaps in a future video you could try making iodine fluorides IF5 and IF7.
Nice!
Im curious with how you handle all of the chemicals that come out of the reactions. Just go into the heavy metal waste?
Nice one
Where did you buy these compounds??!?!?!
You have Tm?!?!?
Can you react silicon tetrachloride with ethanol and methanol
Is it possible to do some experiments about H2FeO4 ? I'm especially curious whether we can get pure H2FeO4, instead of as water solution.
Where do you find information about such a strange compounds, is there any book about it? What is your favorite inorganic chemistry book? Thanks for your films!
Hey!
Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards is my favorite :D
