"Almost as if they were bleeding. It was really rather beautiful."
A little Jack the Ripper leaked out of Sir Martyn it seems
+Tagg Xero I like it when the red water comes out.
+Tagg Xero It is beautiful though.
+HashGray Like beans in tomato sauce ;)
Hmmm now I'm hungry :)
+Tagg Xero All great men have secrets
as soon as i saw that hair, i knew this channel wasn't messing around.
So funny🤣🤣
😂
🦁
Amen
Do you post this on every video of theirs? Kinda weird
somehow i think you guys put a little more lithium than they did.
Papers please
jorji not this again.
SECURITY!
Jorji Costava!
No, a REAL passport please
Just a little more
I love how he specifically tells us its not product placement
I think it might be a British thing. Tom Scott has a video on product placement in the UK.
"This video is totally not brought to you by Pepsi. Why isn't it though?"
I believe its British law. Look it up on tom scotts channel. He did a video about it.
+ooo 52 I think that, from the video, 7-Up and Pepsi would never endorse this video.
+Cole Loves You Not like something that was wrong was in there, but there's always that anti-vax kind of level of ignorant people that think this means something :p
Well kids, don't eat Lithium after drinking 7up. Actually don't ever eat Lithium.
+igNights77 the ironic thing is lithium is used for anorexic medicine
+Joshua Rohla so don't eat it unless prescribed by a doctor.
*****
True, but that is generalising in the wrong direction I think. Lithium compounds are harmful for completely different reasons than similarly reactive metals like calcium.
+Joshua Rohla bipolar too
+Cyanakrli Sodium bicarbonate. Otherwise known as baking soda. You are saying you should never eat this? Sodium is an alkali metal, and reacts with acidic solutions. It is also completely harmless and makes self rising flour rise when you bake it.
What chemists do when they're bored XD
IMHO this is the best part of science: "what happens if..." needs to answered!
+Leo Wattenberg (LEOXD) "what happens if..."
I used to get into trouble with my mum when I tried to answer that question in our bathroom.
+Emperor_Xenolius I don't chemists are ever bored. This is how all scientist think - have a wild idea, test it, and then figure out what happened. I do this kind of crap all the time just for shits and giggles. 💡+ ⚗+🔬= 🎉
Saturated solution of sodium hydroxide and water + aluminum= unending fun
Taylor Beebe More along the lines of mixing a load of things together and leaving them in a cup hidden behind things on the window ledge so I could observe what happened over a week or so.
"Hey, let's add this to that just to see what happens!" is the reason why chemists don't have eyebrows.
and now we may have indicator 7up
Like Adam Savage?
Yea but they have the best 7 up
I can't believe it didn't burst into flames🤔⬇
We have a new Lithium video coming soon - this was done as part of that, but we decided to let it be its own video.
I'm excited can't wait.
Great, I'll be waiting eagerly
+Periodic Videos Is there a way to extract caffeine and could it be consumable in a pure state? Also I loved the video.
+Valavoose there is already a video on the former and I think the answer to the latter is that it's highly inadvisable and you probably wouldn't like it anyway.
+Periodic Videos couldn't you take an NMR spectrum to determine what you're making?
I love how this went from a joke to an experiment.
Note how the professor is always asking "what if" and "I wonder". That's the mark of a good scientist.
For some reason this entire video is just hilarious to me. I love the random thought processes and "What if we do this?" along with the bets about this or that. It makes such fun experiments and videos!
*This man looks like science.*

Watch out, FineBros will sue you for this "reaction"
shut up

+x1298 aww snap, I wonder if periodic videos is now a member of react world.
Vaughn Rogers no it's just not funny. Your response shows me how old you are.
Duck Mcmallard yes, my age is a major factor in this internet conversation. You're very smart! The only way to win an internet argument is to not participate at all; at that, farewell.
"Natural lemon lime what ever that means" lol my grandfather is hilarious.
This is like the world's greatest science fair presentation. "What happens if I put into soda?" but executed by consummate professionals. I loved it. Thanks Brady!
FineBros currently suing lithium for React™-ing with the 7up. They've trademarked Alkali Metals React™
"almost as if they were bleeding... it was really quite beautiful"
metal af :D
You should get to the bottom of this and write a paper about it.
I asked a question and this guy literally repeated what I said and answered it
+KayNineLP 3:35
you look mouth watering
Captain of the debate team.
This dude is totally rocking the Einstein/Mad-Scientist look.
If it is a new indicator, the perfect name for it would be:
7-Up-or-Down
which probably already occurred to the real chemists.
What's fun is that ph of 7 is considered neutral.
@@solstice2318 It is considered neutral because it is neutral. I consider you Sol...
@@voornaam3191 No pH 7 does not mean neutral.
@@charlestalks5638 Oops, mistake. It's a negative logarithm of the H30+ concentration. And I had forgotten what is acid, what value is neutral and what values are alcalid. Where is neutral? Zero? And minus 7 most acid, plus 7 most alcalid?
I am sooooo glad Americans don't have oldfasioned Fahrenheit like scales for this. I NEVER use °F, it is Kelvin or °C, that Fahrenheit is bonkers, but still in use.
@@voornaam3191 7 is neutral. I don't know what that other dude is on about. Just look it up.
Li salts,,, as in the mood stabilizer?
+coffeefish yes
+coffeefish Don't forget where Coca Cola got it's name from... Cocaine.
+Dan O'Connell -- and kola nuts.
(Actually coca leaves instead of pure cocaine)
Peter Lund true, but while no one knows how much cocaine made it into the final product, it's certain some did.
+Dan O'Connell
Quote wikipedia on Coka:
"Coca is any of the four cultivated plants in the family Erythroxylaceae, native to Southwest America.
[...]
The alkaloid content of coca leaves is low, between 0.25% and 0.77%.[3] This means that chewing the leaves or drinking coca tea does not produce the high (euphoria, megalomania, depression) people experience with cocaine. Coca leaf extract had been used in Coca-Cola products since 1885, with cocaine being completely eliminated from the products in or around 1929.[4][5]
Extraction of cocaine from coca requires several solvents and a chemical process known as an acid/base extraction, which can fairly easily extract the alkaloids from the plant."
i literally can't stop watching these videos, it's been over a year now, and i still love listening to you guys teach about all these elements, and their properties.
This video is fantastic, I love how the prof's passion and curiosity in chemistry comes across in this video.
this man looks like science.
Do you think, for confirmation, it might be worth trying a non-group 1 base, since sodium and lithium are both group 1?
A base is a base, it doesn't matter which you use.
Quintinohthree Yes, I would think that too. It would be worth checking though, no? Maybe it has something more to do with the group 1 metals than the alkali properties.
+IamGrimalkin Alkali here refers to the solution they make when dissolved in water. All basic solutions are alkaline. Alkali metals in aqueous solution have barely any effect on any reaction, though if any effect was induced this would be periodic. Seeing as sodium and lithium appear to react similarly I'd say there's nothing special about the alkali metals here.
Quintinohthree Yes, presumably, and that seems more likely than not. But you won't know for sure unless you use a non-group 1 base and see whether you get the same effect.
+IamGrimalkin True, but not every experiment is worthwhile. If you have reasonable suspission that another similar reagent might react differently, you can make it into a hypothesis and test it. In this case though I think previous observation and established knowledge suggest changing alkali metal hydroxides for calcum hydroxide or some other similar chemical would have little difference, except perhaps because calcium interacts more strongly you'd get more reactions occurring, like the precipitation of calcium carbonate, which might obscure the reactions you were studying.
I just love it; starting the experiment as a "pun" and finally having an unexpected and interesting result.
That's just why I love chemistry and science so much.
Thanks for doing these videos! As a biology major, it's a nice break going to your channel and learning more about chemistry!
I'm so happy because today
I've found my friends
They're in my head
I'm so ugly that's ok cause' so are you...
We broke our mirrors..
You okay buddy?
+Z00L0GY I'm not gonna crack!
+Myles Bishop bonus points for nirvana reference
+Myles Bishop yeeeeah yeeeeeeeeeah
yeeeeeeeah yeeee-eeeeeeah
I really enjoyed this video, and would love to see more like it on this channel!! I'm not sure how hard it is to make, but it's really interesting to see how chemists just throw stuff together and see what happens to test their ideas
I'm glad you're back! I was starting to miss your videos.
"Natural lemon and lime flavor, whatever that is"........well I'd hope it's natual lemon and lime, otherwise 7up has some 'splainin to do.
Oh boy, I wonder if some clickbait site will make an article trying to slander Periodic Videos/7up with this like last time.
What was last time?
BenCubed The hamburger in acid video, some site, I think it was buzzfeed, made an article trying to say that's what McDonalds looks like in your stomach or something like that.
+MarlowPreston at leadt they got that stomach acid is hydrochloric acid. Now for all the other things dissolved in there.
calypsis Because it's the best avatar.
And that's possible, I tend to watch a lot of different channels.
+MarlowPreston are u ok? ur breathing pretty heavy
Wow now this is what I love to watch. Real science being done rather than the boring stuff you already learn in secondary school or A-levels
I want to thank all of you for a great channel. These videos are so much fun to watch and very informative. Keep up the great work everyone.
"This is not product placement"
"We are not sponsored by the 7 up"
Are they telling us [Li](3)es?
I watched this 3 days ago when it was released...... it is now trending on facebook......
now I'm just thinking "Get on my level"
One of the most interesting science video I saw on the internet. An experiment, an explanation of the reactions. A counter-experiment to test an hypothesis and the building of a theory that will lead to other experiments to confirm it. That's the full path of scientific work.
Wonderful experiment, deduction, inference and explanation! Wish I had been taught chemistry this way.
they revealed the new 7up recipies :D
Just goes to show that soda is full of Li(es)
I once told a chemistry joke..... There was no reaction
MFN Planespotting proton was sitting down alone, neutron told electron to keep his ion proton.
Does anyone know any jokes about sodium? Na I didn’t think so
Looks like I found my new favorite RUclips channel.
Wow, this RUclips video was long overdue! Don't keep us waiting so long, keep up the great work!!!
Ltihium salt is used today as a medicine for bi-polar.
+Erik Granqvist No wonder if Kurt Cobain wrote a song about it.
yeah what not
You're not supposed to dip the test band into the solution. o_O
How else are you going to find out what it is?
+psychoh13 what then???
Justin Koenig You take the solution and drop it on the tester, not the other way around to avoid contaminating the solution. That's like chemistry 101.
+Leo Wattenberg (LEOXD) take a pipette and put a drop on the test
psychoh13 Speedow Contamination of the solution really is a non-issue in this experiment. They aren't trying to prove that some specific material is in the solution, they just want to find out what happens if you put Li into 7up. The quick'n'dirty way really is sufficient here.
once again joyful to watch! keep up the good work! you all never fail to amuse and interest me
Great video professor, this was really quite interesting.
So this is how Pepsi it's made...
So... 7up + Lithium metal = Mountain Dew?
For a little bit, then it turns i to asswater. Oh wait thats still mountain dew
+in Zane Nectar of the tards.
+in Zane cola cola?
+in Zane Is Mountain Dew black or brown? Mountain Dew is orange because it is based on orange juice.
Jemalacane0 I thought it was transparent like water.
Great video! Thanks for uploading
I'm so glad you're back to youtube Periodic Videos :D
well... can be worse... nuka-cola have uranium or plutonium inside.
nuka cola quantum contains strontium-90
It may contain Uranium Carbonate... as a plausible ingredient. Uhm.. metallic aftertaste.
They tried it awhile back. New Coke = Nukecoke. Probably why nobody liked it.
wait wait wait..... it turned into coke!!
It is really amazing and inspiring to see than despite of years of experience with chemistry, you still love it to the extent you literally like to play with it in a very casual way! Really cool experiment! :D
I really enjoy these videos immensely. Thank you professor! And thank you Brady.
Now _this_ is the chemistry I came here for. Fantastically interesting video!
One of the best Periodic Videos yet
The simple fact that you used °C just made my day, thanks for that. And it was an interesting video, so thanks for that too. I'd like too see more.
Great video! Always exciting when a new video is released from you!
I love the colours that are formed. Thanks for such a great video.
This one was great, keep up spontaneous experiments.
Great video. Educational as always!
This man really loves what he does. Made me smile :)
Had to track this down, with so many news sites sharing a ripped video of this, i at least wanted to credit you the view and like. nice video.
Keep posting vids like this! You are the best chemistry channel on RUclips!! Btw where can I buy elements like lithium or sodium?? Elemental
Fascinating. I'll have to experiment with this in the lab next time I go to the office. Thanks!
I love these videos, really interesting experiments with simple items.
That was quite an interesting look into how chemists might go about experimenting on unknown solutions.
Something about this video struck me as, "Ah, so this is where the fun in chemistry is!"
Making a hypothesis, testing via experiment, formulating conclusions...
The scientific method felt so restrictive and contrived when I learned it in high school, but seeing it applied here in such a casual and natural manner really displays its power and utility in a way I have not seen before.
Love this channel always something really neat to learn. Thanks for the great content.
Finally a vid jesus i was missin prof. poli
"It contains... natural lemon and lime flavor... whatever that is". LOL! That was so insanely funny, the way you delivered this line was genius. :D
I really like these videos where you're doing an experiment you actually don't know what the result will be beforehand.
great video! I'd love to see more experiments like this :)
This was very interesting and cool! What a great video!
This is so cool actually. There's remarkable amount of chemistry packed into this one.
It's quite amazing what you can discover and learn from something that started out as a mere joke. I hope that this is investigated further and you guys discover whether or not you actually did create an indicator, that'd be pretty cool!
more content plz, I really like periodic videos.
Yay! Periodic table is Back!
Thanks! You captivated me.
Awesome vid Professor!
The strength of curiosity is incredibly strong in this video.
I would like to see more on this. :0
Your videos weren't coming up in my feed for a long time, I was wondering where these videos were!
That was really cool and interesting. Glad I took chemistry in high school so I could understand the technical stuff.
The most mellow 7up you've ever seen. Good to see you're still going strong, Sir Martyn.
We used to do some crosslinking experiments with mono, and di-sacharides (sacharose, galactose... etc) using different bases (NaOH, NH3 and even benzyltrimethylammoniumhydroxide) and an epoxide as crosslinker. Even in the control test without the epoxide crosslinker the brown color was formed. the more alkaline the solution the more rapid the color was formed.
it smelled somewhat like syrup/caramel.
To quenche the reaction we added acid, and also here the solution turned colorless overtime. If you store the unquenched solution in the fridge for about a week its colorless again.
Q-TOF results showed it was a polysacharide of the monosacharide added to the solution. mostly formed by bonds formed at the secundaire alcohol.
Another excellent video
Sometimes I'm amazed how awesome and interesting rather simple experiments can be
I'm learning about acid and bases (equilibria) and this is so awesome!!
Excellent video
I love the professor. He is awesome.
Very interesting experiment, well explained :) I must watch it with my students.
Wow, I feel really happy learning this.
Very nice video. Thanks
Now this is why Science is so much fun! Who wouldn't want to play like this all day long. I freakin' love chemistry!
Vaya! siempre tuve esa duda, gracias :D
I love your tie!!
I wish i could take part of these experiments. It looks so fun and interesting to work with unknowns. I guess RUclips is the second best thing.
Try adding Salt Peter with Brown Sugar And Sulphur Together equal amounts . Light it with a match . See what happens
This reminds me of a demonstration that my chemistry professor did. It showed that juice from red cabbage worked as a pH indicator. A video explaining how this works might be interesting to some of your viewers.
