  • Today we're trying something a little different. We're going to show you what happens when you place lithium in water all in one continuous take! This lithium battery experiment was so fun and easy! King Of Random loved every moment of it! This is perfect for those wanting to know about battery explosions, battery experiments, battery life, lithium battery explosion, what’s inside a battery, exploding battery test, dangerous experiments, lithium battery explosion, burning batteries, and more!
    If you want to try something new and creative or an activity such as: DIY battery test, science experiment, explosions, fire experiments...watch the video to learn more. This is a perfect weekend project guaranteed to give you loads of fun!

      @fat_pigeon 2 года назад +4

      These are metallic lithium batteries, not Li-ion. They probably contain little if any fluorine. Hot alkali (formed by reaction of Li with water) can also etch glass, which seems more likely.

      @@TheWolfman112 lithium would then displace sodium becuse it is more reactive so nothing interesting would happen other than formation of Lithium fluoride,the heat was so intense that it started destroying the glass when the color changed to orange it was becuse it was pulling Na+ ions from the glass so it would probably damage it a lot

    • @thrasher9898
      @thrasher9898 Год назад +3

      You don't get HF from this reaction. You do get LiOH which is the weakest of the strong alkali bases. The etching probably comes from the lithium hydroxide dissolving an extremely small percentage of the glass. Studies show that strong alkali metal bases can react quite well with glass, so it should be quite plausible that the LiOH was reacting with the glass. Definitely some experiment ideas i want to test now.

    I'd guess that more accurately what happened is that the flames got hot enough to cause the glass to chip away in the area with the divot, which then spread around the bowl in a crack. I'm not sure which brand of bowl you used there but it looks like how pyrex might chip, although pyrex would completely shatter from my experience.

  • @spookywizard4980

    It can etch the glass because when the lithium reacts with water it froms lithium hydroxide, which can slowly attack/dissolve glass (especially if when hot)

    You could try the same with sodium - it produces a bit faster reaction, and if you drop small enough bit in, it glides over the water really fast - thanks to leidenfrost effect. You might even be able to get your hands on kalium (pottasium) for even faster reaction, although I would recommend dropping that one from a stick, as it might throw sparks of burning metal around.
    Fun thing is to make a paper ship and put any of these metals into it - a delayed Michael-Bay-style Titanic!

      "Do something with ferrofluid" That's really specific. But all cynicism aside, some cool things you could do with ferrofluid
      You could try heating it up very strongly, preferably to above the melting point of iron. Another thing would be to see how it reacts to very strong electric currents. Furthermore, you could try exposing it to a vacuum, or to extreme cold.
      I think especially the one with strong electric currents would be interesting, as an electric current induces a magnetic field around it, to which the ferrofluid would in turn react.
      Heating it up would probably just evaporate the carrier fluid, turning the ferrofluid into a big lump of magnetized iron, and supercooling most likely freezes the carrier fluid, which leaves you with a solid superparamagnet, rather than a liquid one. I see hardly any reason why a vacuum would affect the ferrofluid in any way.

    Interesting that even after those batteries were partially disassembled (and the internals were exposed), dropping them in water did nothing. Perhaps the wrap was (still) tight enough that the lithium wasn't exposed to the water and/or since it was submerged, the reaction was slowed enough prevent any combustion.

    I'd like to see what happens if you drilled a few 1/8" holes through the battery and then dropped it into the water; let the water seep into the lithium while the battery casing is intact, so that it it gets to build up pressure.

      Lithium actually looooves water Bc of the oxygen in it. Lithium is an alkali metal meaning that it has 1 valence electron, so it just needs to get rid of that one electron to become stable, while the oxygen has 7 valence electrons, so it only needs 1 more for a full shell. Because of the amounts of valence electrons in each shell, they mainly react with each other because they fit each others needs.

    Interesting the sulphur strip, I wonder if it is used because it has a lot of loose or free ions in it?
    This experiment shows on a small scale issue the ev cars might be having issues with.
    I'd be curious to know if it is a small bit of condensation that is igniting them or possible trapped water from he weather.
    To see he flame as soon as it touched water, you have to wonder if that is something causing the fires?
    Unless the batteries are designed differently, maybe the housings or casings have been collecing moisture or something.
