"I won't have to worry about them being taken out of my closet for another chemistry project." You know there's a lot of history revealed in that one sentence.
she went from having measuring cups, to having no measuring cups, to having measuring cups she'll never use. i guess his next gift should be some measuring cups...
Tony Flamingo metallic gold could only kill you if you invested about an ounce. It simply didn’t react with anything and you would just pass it(deficate)
Terren Maplethorpe Pretty much the only way gold can kill you is if someone drops an anvil made out of gold onto your head. Or if you make it into a compound salt and inject it into your bloodstream.
"I happen to know my mom needs measuring cups" "I'm worried you're going to take them for another experiment" -> You are leaving something unsaid here ....
RIPBlueInk; Actually, the gold can form soluble complexes with some things (creamy dairy products come to mind), and the gold does indeed impart a taste to some of them (kind of like Lead also doesn't taste of anything, but Lead Acetate (basically lead combined with vinegar) tastes very sweet).
RIPBlueInk This is true. This is why some of us don't use silver cutlery, it makes things have a weird taste. And gold cutlery make things taste sweet or better.
i guess all moms are the same.... you give them an expensive gift like gold plated measuring cups and they store them in the cupboard or put them up as decoration, then they go out and buy a cheap plastic set and use that.....
Yeah but they don't want to use this nice gift you gave them because they would be worried that they would mess it up. If you ruin some rando cheap plastic set you just bought then MEH just buy another, but if you ruin your expensive, precious gift set, then damn. No way to replace that. So yeah, most people (moms as you say) are kind of the same with that line of logic.
I said it already 2 times but you are reason I'm interested in chemistry! Before I discovered your videos I thought chemistry are just boring formulas but your videos show the practical side of chemistry! I went from grade 3 to 1 ( German system ) and my teacher is stunned by how much I know. Thank you very much for uncover my pation in chemistry Cody. Love Jason ( #nohomo )
Pleasing your mom is the major guaranteed way to get blessed in life and beyond. It's a good trade, you please her with gold plated cups so the almighty Lord plate you with his mercy and love!
That steel toe save is one of those "yeah safety was a pretty good idea today" moments. I remember when I was a kid I was playing with my bb gun in my back yard, I shot at a 2x4 laying on the ground. I hit the side facing the sky but it bounced back and smacked me right in the middle of my safety glasses lens.
Aww that's so sweet because it has a touch of your hobby and skill on them. I love personalized gifts from someone that shows a touch of that person's personality within it. Beautiful, Cody.
Aw, beautiful! It's always fun when presenting your parents something with your own effort. I bought my father a wrench kit with my own money when i was 14 😂 , and the payoff is just like nothing else 😊
You can tell she wasn't impressed. Who gives their mom kitchen utensils for Mothers Day? Even if they're gold, they're kitchen utensils. "Oh, great. As if I don't do enough work around here, he gives me something to make more cakes and it's just something else to have to wash and he could've given me a day at the spa or even just some flowers but no, he gave me something to use to make HIM more food but I have to smile and sound pleased because I'm on camera for his dang internet videos and why can't he get a real job so I don't get measuring cups for Mothers Day..."
You're Mum is cool, you give her a set of measuring cups and she is very grateful, others on RUclips give a new car and the Mum is not happy, keep up the great videos.
Rijl Qanturis Notice how he spilled some acid. The plastic bin is actually great because it is inorganic, the acid would have eaten away at wood and glass and metals would be a problem.
Thor214 You are overcomplicating te discussion, I used a non chemistry connotation of inorganic as in not related to living things. I thought that would be obvious but in retrospect I could have been clearer.
Ronie Von Varona; Thickness of the plating you want × surface area that you want to plate × density of gold = mass of gold required (Theoretically, each atom that gets plated should be replaced by an atom from the gold electrode, although you wouldn't really want to deplete your plating solution so much, as the plating quality would suffer. It's much better to have such a large excess that the whole plating procedure hardly changes the concentrations of your plating solution's constituent salts).
i can't wait for more of codys lab i think it would be awesome if you maybe started making the inside smoother/more asthetic the idea being you can look into polishing the materials etc.
I have mixed emotions about Patrion. Like all endeavors in life, there is some good and some bad. If your product is high quality, like Cody's Lab, then the patrons get a good value. Else, it is simple begging. I lean toward honestly earning what you get. And the easiest measure of success is how much is someone else is willing to pay for what you make.
Well done Cody! Last year i gold leafed a bird statuette for my mother's 80th birthday. She reacted about the same as your mother, so it was time well spent!
4:20 A little bit of Sodium Hydroxide in my life A little bit of Sodium Cyanide by my side A little bit of Gold Hydroxide is all I need A little bit of Gold Cyanide is what I see A little bit of Hydrochloric acid makes me your man
You aren't supposed to wear gloves when working with Nitric acid cause they spontaneously combust if they come into contact with it. Without them you can just wash the acid off your hands.
nitric acid isn't as dangerous as you think, I've gotten it on my hand for like 30 seconds all you have to do is wash it off if you feel burning and you will be left with a yellow spot on your hands
Not having to use gloves? That is completely false. Add in the fact that he’s mixing nitric and hydrochloric, which produces one of the strongest acids, could leave to a horrible disaster. Just a second of Aqua Regia (mixture of those 2 acids) will cause intense burns and leave a very noticeable scar
admit it cody, the only reason she needed new measuring cups is because you destroyed hers in some experiment
Skyler Bulford Bingo
JadeX Games a lot of people have that
10:02 It proves your theory.
Skyler Bulford 10:04 she said that he did do that

this is fucking great thats why im here
puts cyanide in measuring cups

"I won't have to worry about them being taken out of my closet for another chemistry project."

He probably destroyed the old ones and that's why she needs some.
she went from having measuring cups, to having no measuring cups, to having measuring cups she'll never use. i guess his next gift should be some measuring cups...
"so i just dropped the anvil on my foot" something i thought i would never hear someone say calm
KraineK xDDD karambitch I think your picture would be the face of him if he had no shoes on
xDDD
And that's why you always wear steel toed boots
Always? I don't see my self being in much risk of dropping anvils on my toes in my everyday life. Not enough to wear clumsy ugly boots at least.
yes, but thats why you wear carbon steel, instead of low carbon steel shoes.
If something is heavy enough to bend a rated steel toe enough to capture your toes it's heavy enough to completely destroy your foot.
Brian Pinard only if you're dropping a car directly on them from a few feet up. and at that point you shouldn't be in a shop to begin with.

Tony Flamingo metallic gold could only kill you if you invested about an ounce. It simply didn’t react with anything and you would just pass it(deficate)
Terren Maplethorpe
Pretty much the only way gold can kill you is if someone drops an anvil made out of gold onto your head.
Or if you make it into a compound salt and inject it into your bloodstream.
“Right now I’m the process of dissolving the gold”- *1 second later* “So I just dropped an anvil on my foot”
"I happen to know my mom needs measuring cups"
What happened to her old set of measuring cups, Cody? did you use them for an experiment?
st0rmforce
.......maybe
more of a certainly
Most definitely. His mom said : "Now I know that they aren't going to be taken out of the cupboard for another experiment"
Frost
Haha. I missed that first time watching it.
Cody, did you weigh the cups before and after the plating?
How much gold made it on to them?
"I happen to know my mom needs measuring cups" "I'm worried you're going to take them for another experiment" -> You are leaving something unsaid here ....
nraynaud1 I liked his moms comment too. Haha
i thought the same exact thing lmao
My mother was used to finding her kitchen stuff in my experimenter's shack. When she was missing something she used to first look there after it.
pretty sure she was referring to THOSE cups in specific, that he took, and now will no longer take again.
mom: "thank you!"
normal people: *hugs mom*
Cody: "no problem"
Lol
Have I been doing it wrong?
Yo Cody. After gold plating those cups they will hold a smaller quantity now. Your moms pies will never be the same again. lol :)
R Carmisin Should only be a few dozen atoms in the change of the width so it'll be alright
lol thanks for killing the joke lol :)

Gold plate a spoon and do some taste tests. You'll be surprised at how much of a difference it makes to some food if you have a good layer
You mean how much of a difference it doesn't make? ;)

Yes, let's handle hazardous chemicals on some wobbly ass Rubbermaid bin.
What's the worst that could happen?
Rijl Qanturis Notice how he spilled some acid. The plastic bin is actually great because it is inorganic, the acid would have eaten away at wood and glass and metals would be a problem.
Emilio, how did you get the notion that plastics are inorganic?
Thor214 You are overcomplicating te discussion, I used a non chemistry connotation of inorganic as in not related to living things. I thought that would be obvious but in retrospect I could have been clearer.
sorry, can't hear you over the sound of myself splashing mercury, huffing cyanide, and chewing indium
Hes got a cool mom very apreciative of his work.. Glad hes got a great family god bless..

9:49 "How the heck did you do that?"
I wanted him to say "A bit of cyanide, among other things."

"played with some cyanide and hydrochloric acid, then dropped an anvil on my foot."
How do you know/estimate how much gold to use?
Ronie Von Varona scales
Ronie Von Varona; Thickness of the plating you want × surface area that you want to plate × density of gold = mass of gold required (Theoretically, each atom that gets plated should be replaced by an atom from the gold electrode, although you wouldn't really want to deplete your plating solution so much, as the plating quality would suffer. It's much better to have such a large excess that the whole plating procedure hardly changes the concentrations of your plating solution's constituent salts).
surface area * layer thickness * density of the gold = how much gold you need
Ronie Von Varona actually I think Cody just uses an excess and recovers what is unspent
Because he is an chemistry magician
A great safety lesson learned and a very sweet gift given.
i can't wait for more of codys lab i think it would be awesome if you maybe started making the inside smoother/more asthetic the idea being you can look into polishing the materials etc.

Step 1: don't wear gloves with Nitric acid
Step 2: breathe heavily while messing with cyanide
You aren't supposed to wear gloves when working with Nitric acid cause they spontaneously combust if they come into contact with it. Without them you can just wash the acid off your hands.
nitric acid isn't as dangerous as you think, I've gotten it on my hand for like 30 seconds all you have to do is wash it off if you feel burning and you will be left with a yellow spot on your hands
Not having to use gloves? That is completely false. Add in the fact that he’s mixing nitric and hydrochloric, which produces one of the strongest acids, could leave to a horrible disaster. Just a second of Aqua Regia (mixture of those 2 acids) will cause intense burns and leave a very noticeable scar
