Now I am going to tell you more about some expensive and toxic substances. 
Наука
Buy platinum group metals. They're valuable because of their rarity and their use as catalysts in many chemical processes. They don't really get used up in the reactions and can be reverted to their metallic state.
@The European Bee you don't invest by buying it physically. You loose to much on taxes this way (think VAT, PIT vs CGT). You invest in stocks or commodity on financial markets.
@@ccriztoff Because he makes the videos for Estonians first.
@@poat3453 Recycling? Pt group metals? Sifting through street sweepings might pay off. Or just accept the end-of-life catalytic convertors as your stock for a few species.
I am currently paying CAD $250.00 per troy ounce of 99.99 pure Palladium
@@sznikers or get it out of the trash, refine it at home & tell the government nothing !!
I am currently paying CAD $250.00 per troy ounce of 99.99 pure Palladium
most of that cost is for chemicals to clean it up.
It worked, my $50 gold is now worth $500. The only downside was, that the chemicals cost me $450.
Lmao
$550, you forgot to add sales tax. Lololol.
@@matthewyabsley 😂
nitric and hydrochloric acid? they're both very cheap
@@matthewyabsley & shipping
I think compounds for biology are still the king of expensive compounds, like some toxins, like a amanitin which can cost +100€ for 1mg. There are of course much more expensive compounds but even commonly used ones like probes and enzymes are super expensive per mg
Plus ordering radioactive molecules. I remember ordering radiolabeled drugs as marker substrates that were very expensive. I'd like to see a video on how they synthesize radiolabeled molecules with the radioactive atoms in specified positions. I have some idea, but haven't looked into it. I'd especially be interested in the logistics behind it as some can't be stored for a long time and there's low demand. Not really related, but I remember one professor ordering a $30,000 rat and also placing an order a new mass spectrometer and associated equipment that was just over a million at work, though I can't remember if that was for one or two. That one made me really appreciate that other labs at school let us use their equipment.
HP printer ink is also very expensive.
@ not as expensive as primary antibodies
Copium
Particle physics definitely wins in most expensive materials. Anti-Hydrogen is $1 billion per mg.
Chemistry is such a beautiful science
Such an amazing video, so informative! Thank you.
I could listen to this guy read the phone book and be entertained. The intonation of his accent is just great.
It's quite the opposite for me, and the fact that either the video or the audio is lagging behind a significant amount of miliseconds makes it even more unbearable.
Bob Lazar claims to have 228 grams of Element 115, which of course provides the anti-Gravity drive for the saucers at Area 51. He should be a
very rich man, but says he misplaced the material somewhere along the way. lol
Main problem for most of the people would be finding the place to sell such products. I admit that it can cost more than the original reactants but finding a buyer for me would be hell I guess
Most of us just cooked up some in demand products instead of weird rare chemicals. But i guess there is a difference in risk with the hive method.
@@Sentient.A.I. actual ai acomment?
University science professors?
@@JAKASHA420 no but im a chemistry enjoyer
also, the people buying such compounds are probably not interested in a couple of grams that some nerd made in his/her homelab
1:10 As I know the D₂H can also be separated from ordinary water by freezing it. Deuterium has a bit higher (~ +0.1C⁰) freeze temperature than H₂O
You cannot almost certainly control the freezing process to such a subtle degree, or rather decidegree to be precise. So I'd say it can't be done in real life.
@@LuisAldamiz you dont need to freeze 100% of the water
For example start with 100 liters and keep partially freezing it like 50 % each time
After a couple cycles you will have a smaller amount enriched with D2O
Or just use electrolysis or aluminium NaOH like cody did
@@koukouzee2923 - Is it actually done? You seem to be talking of an actual technique.
@@LuisAldamiz I never seen it done (the freezing method) but theoretically it should work
But the aluminum NaOH and electrolysis are legit
I'm planning to do it one day it's in my projects list
Great video my Estonian friend! Keep up the great work !!
I knew I was right about the accent!
Now if only I could find a company willing to buy chemicals from a random unknown chemist
Ima have to watch this video at least 100 more times! Thank you for this. 🥂
Tritium is most commonly used in gun sights
Another great video. I learn so much from your channel.
one of the many downsides of these process is that depending on the reagents used, you may not know the contaminants in them so it could add a significant ammount of impurities to your product that could havle a drastic effect on the price. one place might buy your 5 grams of Chloroauric acid for whatever ammount, but if its only like 95%-98% pure the place might not even want to buy it. from what ive gathered from metal refiners and chemists who do stuff like this, any significant ammount of impurities will tank your earnings, plus even if your product is pretty pure you still have to buy pure reagents, which are expensive, so this is really only viable if youre doing it in a large scale (50+ gram ammounts).
That an excellent point, very true, the impurities tank the price
Purity is always where the cost comes from. Anybody can stick a few chemicals together in a bowl and call it a finished product.
@@amicloud_yt same can be said for females, it can look good but the value is in purity. If she has contaminants from the whole football team nobody wants it.
Since it not up to standards for serious chemistry haha
@@oscarbear7498 uhhh what a weird attitude. are men alright? ya'll fuckin crazy. glad i am a lesbian
@@oscarbear7498 dude wtf
I have most of those metals. I think it's time to diversify and see what lab equipment is needed (and cost). Thanks for the idea.
very interesting!! those reactions are beautyful! thanks for the show!
Regarding the superconductor, it's much "worse" when you want to make usable "wires" from it to make magnets. You need the YBCO to be almost perfectly single-crystalline, which requires vacuum deposition techniques. The endproduct, a thin tape, costs in the order of 50 euro per meter these days (but quickly going down thanks to private fusion power companies like, Tokamak Energy, ordering thousands of kilometers of the stuff)
Yeah, but how do you sell the compounds?
This was super informative and cool!
Always on top sir, thank you!
I want to know the exact type of induction furnace, and where to buy it.
I have experience smelting three metals together (iron, copper and aluminum) to test conductivity and others, so I need this furnace
Speaking of Tritium -- they synthesized it in my home town 👍 Joint venture with DuPont at the Savanah River facility...
Anyway yesterday i acquired the book "History of DuPont at the Savannah River Plant"
It goes into a TON OF DETAIL about the original design of the HEAVY WATER extraction plant built here - Different iterations of the target and cladding designs...
Even discusses how they changed the equipment around to start targeting Tritium for development of Hyperbaric bombs
Tons of original photos also 👍👍
In the GS system to acquire heavy water the Hydrogen Sulfide started forming a "condesate" with the DO .... Eventually the condesate displaced so much water that the whole interior of the tank collapsed 👍👍
They collectively "scratched their heads" 🤣
Also for safety reason they installed a "neutron poison" tank.... The operator could pull a cable and release the poisson into the DO and stop the reaction... That was the 3rd protection... used if the gravity fed DO doesn't work for some reason
While in Washington last time my relatives didnt understand why I wanted to go to the Dupont Museum...
For them, I was going to see Lycra, Spandex and textiles. Ahhh the sadness I felt...
I love industry / history books. That must be a great book to read :)
How is it made? I only thought it could be made by bombarding lithium with neutrons in a nuclear reactor.
@@malcolmabram2957 you are correct - that's what they did except they never "produced electricity" with the "reactors"
They just bombarded STUFF 👍👍💥💥
Oh yeah, I can see a government research facility purchasing chemicals I made in my basement. 🤣😂
i have tried to make my YBCO with your methods but it doesn't become supraconductor, have you use how much temperature and for how long ?
Thats a good shirt
And the reaction looks cool...pyrosynthesis...
The way he manipulates chemichal compounds makes him look like a modern day DaVinci. I love this channel!
It’s just chemistry, but yeah it’s really cool
@@edma06 Da Vinci hand't a great interest in compounds, but later in life when he worked for the military
At 5:02 are those old long-arc xenon lamps that you've repurposed into fancy plasma tubes? That's awesome. I've got a (presumably functional) long-arc lamp sitting on my desk that I was planning on doing stupid Nd:YAG stuff with.
Always interesting:) thank you
May I ask what the electric discharge display behind you is?
Very informative video thanks for sharing
*Walter White Noises*
Edit: I know you dont make *Eh em* Rock Candy with metal
Finally a new video, I realy like your videos.
We should look at the price of antimatter.
It is VERY energetic when annihilating typical materials.
And needs even more energy to make. The only way it’s synthesized is from the most powerful particle colliders in the world
But you cannot effectively make antimatter except in tiny amounts in particle accelerators, keeping it away from regular matter is also extremely tricky (vacuum and magnets are required), so all kinds of impractical. That's why antimatter is so extremely expensive, almost invaluable.
Oh, you’ve been watching RUclips also. Good for you
Good luck ever producing - let alone capturing and storing antimatter lmao.
Antihydrogen has been stored for less than 20 minutes at CERN in the past - one of the most capable facilities in the world for such a thing.
I'm getting into this process in a way, I'm buying silver gold strontium copper and more to make glass colors for artists to use.
pls do another videos like this!!!!!!
Also how much D2O did u manage to produce?
and t what energy cost?
In terms of the gold compound What concentrations do I need the hydrochloric and nitric acid to be.
I know the percentages I just need to find out what the concentration is
This is cool and all but where can you sell it?
Where have you bought your beautiful "neon" panel ? I want the same !
Great Video highly informative and interesting
10:35 Don't show this to NileRed.
The problem would be selling the resulting extremely expensive compounds to those who would need them. "Joe's Chemistry Supplies" wouldn't be a trusted source. Want deuterium oxide as a novelty? Joe will sell you a bottle of water labeled as deuterium oxide for $1 per cc.
Exactly. This business is a gated garden of few big players. To enter such market you not only need a registered business in EU or USA, but also all the necessary compliances (GHS, OSHA, REACH...) and that is expensive as hell. I know two small chemical vendors who also stopped selling to individuals for the same reasons.
Yep, you need to have a trusted name, A normal person can't join.
Just look on line of all the sellers of compounds from China with terrible reviews. That's what Joe blow looks like to companies.
@@LiborTinka I'm reminded of Max Gergel's memoirs of the founding of Colombia Chemical and its early years-- back then you could actually have a small company making stuff in small batch. But typically you were going to be making the stuff that was a real pain or wasn't economical (or needed in big enough amounts) to be worth it for Dow or Midland or another massive company. Your biggest customer was the military and government then, during the cold war, when the navy had the kind of money to fly someone out to Colombia and try to talk them into pilot plant levels of production of difficult boranes that other people had turned their nose up at because they could afford to.
Great vid! Good to see the kitty!
So how exactly would one go about selling these compounds, just call up places that do research and ask them if they want to buy some?
On my way to synthesis Nihonium and buy the earth
Give some information, if antimony chloride solution is added to sodium sulphite solution, can antimony sulphite Sb2(so3)3 be made?
please guide
there is a good tv show about using chemistry to make money, its called Breaking Bad
And everytime a chemist has any remotely blue compound you guys flock to say Jesse we need to cook
1:50 I like your plasma tube on wall behind you, where did you got from?
Totally cool video! Smart!
Sir if i dissolve pladium in Aqua Riga then how can i recover back tell me please ❤
make car rims from nitinol. Hit a pothole - collect insurance money. heat up nitinol - rims return to original shape - repeat hitting potholes for infinite insurance payouts :)
How do you make polonium?
Good list, I'll leave Os to others though :)
We can make a few of these compounds but never expect to sell them at the same price as Merck, Fisher etc.
Hobbyist cannot guarantee the purity / effectiveness of the compound / catalyst in the same way as those firms can.
It's the same issue with silver refining. Who need Umicore to assay twice refined silver ? It's gonna be 99.99% with or without their stamp...
If you can prove the efficiency you can get a decent rate for sure. This can be as simply as logging the exact quantities of each metal and reagent used and compare that to the mass of the end result. Obviously the hobbyist will have more loss than an industrial setup -- but people like @sreetips can produce high purity chemical products. (He mostly does gold / silver extractions and purifications, but the purity is 99.99% -- so an experienced hobbyist could produce similar results with the same level of expertise.
@@l_unchtime It doesnt matter ! One ounce of gold marked Umicore will always cost more than unmarked bullion no matter who refined it and how talented they are.
Love it 💙
Fascinating. I'm surprised that these pure elements are cheaper than compounds that contain them.
how often does a meal cost less than the ingredients used to make it?
@@axelpothier2957 when it's foraged .
Informative TY
I wounder who does the voiceovers for these videos!
Awesome, thanks.
Source for element display?
what metal oxide put to cement to make strong concrete ,only metal oxide
Remember to never drink heavy water--you'll get atomic ache. (From some 50's scifi novel I read, I don't remember which one)
Nile red drank some. Said it tasted sweet. IIRC
love that accent bro, no sarcasm, true talk
Fantastic video
Nice that you show also TalTech :)
Do you need to be Licensed to sell the Processed Gold ? Or can anyone do this ?
Any one can sell gold. I see it for sell on eBay all the time. It might help to have it tested at a lab before hand.
can you explain how to make novichok?
Old is gold we love you're old voice 👍🏻👍🏻
can you make monoatomic gold ?
Great video
Awesome video, looking forward to seeing what else you have on your channel!
Very interesting video.
I have a diving watch with tritium tubes for illumination. I love it you can read it in any condition.
Do you have a link to this in russian language?
Thanks for the tips, but I don't think I'll be messing round with aqua regia anytime soon. 😳
Imagine discovering the process in which the creation of a super conductor material that forms the reactive properties without the use of liquid nitrogen
Thata gave me an idea
They are spending millions in that research.

i have trition aim sights to my hand gun, amazing stuff, i love to had it!
brightly colored experiments look cool!
0:47 Fun fact. That heavy water is sold by Bob Lazar's company. The guy who used to work on government black budget anti-gravity tech in Nevada. He was on Joe Rogan in 2019
Physicists observed a strange new type of behaviour in a magnetic material when it’s heated up. The magnetic spins ‘freeze’ into a static pattern when the temperature rises, a phenomenon that normally occurs when the temperature decreases discovered the phenomenon in the material neodymium
Sir/ma'am can you please link some article I want to learn more about it
What a video. Thanks
Best Science Video Ever!!!
bro discovered what the basis of the chemical industry was
Cool VIdeo, and the Cat is great.
Very Nice!!!!
I have no clue what this video is about (about to watch) but I really hope there's some great way of idk, chemically turning cheap materials into more useful chemical precursors and being able to legally sell those as an individual to say, a small research lab, or online. That's my kind of modern day real life video game skill farming for money
The problem is even small research labs probably won't buy it because potential impurities aren't worth the money saved. Testing for those impurities and optimising the synthesis costs money, so in the end you will probably be just as expensive if you wanna do it properly. For use in your hobby lab it's probably good enough though
Always something fascinating! Can't get enough of your content dude! ❤️👍😎👨🔬⚗️⚛️
you can make silver more expensive by making it into silver halides and making film, then photographing something very rare with it so the photo becomes valuable.
Αmazing! Thank you so much!!
I kept expecting his shirt to crash to desktop during the video
10:55 i was like wtf when that popped up because it's our tallinn technical university
