      Actually some people might have that stuff in their pantry. It's just alum which is used for pickling stuff. You could buy it in a supermarket in the spice aisle pretty easily if you wanted to.

    @wirebrushproductions1001 2 года назад +33

    Two improvements: First, put a piece of cheesecloth over the top of the beaker. This will cut down on dust getting into the solution, and will minimize the number of unwanted crystals growing in the experiment. Second, once you have a medium-size crystal, make a new batch of solution using only the non-chrome version of the sulphate. Transfer the crystal to the clear solution, and you will grow a clear crystal with a purple heart.

      Alum powder (potassium aluminium sulfate) can be found in the spice section of many grocery stores It is used pickling recipes as a preservative to maintain fruit and vegetable crispness.
      Potassium chromium can easily be found on the internet (try Amazon) and is typically sold for the purpose of crystal growing.

I keep it in my muscles, teeth, bones, and the rest of my body. If you were to extract and concentrate these trace elements, every person is carrying around a few gold nuggets and uranium nuggets worth on them. But if you are so deprived, go smoke a cigarette.

      @nickturner5721 9 лет назад +13

      +chí bách trần There's also the fact that permanganate should be able to oxidise the chromium in the salt, probably to dichromate, forming the brown precipitate as well. If you're unable to import some chrome alum into Vietnam (there's none here in Australia either), purple food colouring might be your best option :)

      uhuju1 Crystals of salts (ionic compounds) are generally very brittle so you would have trouble shaping them also the growth cant be molded because the structure of the molecules is very specific and will only form one shape after a certain amount of growth.

    Salt is the easiest crystal to grow but know table salt makes a different shape from these (which grows similarly to alum salt, which can be found in the spice/salt section of any grocery store sold as pickling salt)
    Epsom salt is harder to make a singular crystal, but they grow rectangular like rutile and table salt grow in cubes. Alum salt grows like a diamond in this vid

    This is SO COOL! Is there anything else that I could coat these with that doesn't give the streaky effect of nail polish? Like would a spray sealant work?

    • @petrino

      the propelant in most spraycans will melt it. but if you have a paint gun that doesnt use propellant it could work.

      If you want to go really low-tech and low-cost, I've had success with just pouring a bottle of polish into one of those spray bottles you can pick up for $1, then adding a bit of polish remover to thin it. Shake it up to mix well and you have some instant polish spray paint that will give you a smooth finish.

      I know you've already gotten answers but heh I want to add another possible option.
      I'm not sure how it would affect the crystals, but you could also try to use sculpey glaze and coat it in a few layers. If you coat it evenly, it will be nice and smooth.

    If you were to hang something in the solution, like maybe a marble or small plastic figure, would crystals grow on it?

    • @officiallparts913
      @officiallparts913 8 лет назад

      It depends reeally, the way the crystals would grow on it would be through small holest and non-even surfaces.. So if your marble is a little rough, it would be possible.. (please note that the crystal will not continue the shape of the crystal, but take its natural form until it is obstructed by something)

      Anyone try drilling with a tiny diamond point bit? If not that, maybe try wrapping some thin jewelry wire around the fishing line and loop it at where you expect the top of your crystal to be, and let it grow around it.
