Thank you, I find your experiments fascinating. Way back in the 1960's when I was doing my "O" level GCE physics, I also had that book, but mine was blue so I don't know what edition it was. I brought it with me when we came to Canada 40 years ago, and we used it when my wife was home schooling our youngest son (he is now 31). Thank you again.
Once again thank you Dr. Szydlo, and cameraman Oscar, for all these videos!!! Brings a few moments of pleasure in these bleak, in so many different ways, times.
Great video, as always with Dr. Szydlo. The comment "I don't know exactly what's going on but you have to admit it's interesting" sums up every chemistry video I've seen this man do. I don't know what's going on but it's interesting.
Thank you for such an interesting lecture. You mentioned at about 24min into video that it was quite an undertaking to re-calibrate the barometer. I would have thought that it was simply a matter of upending the tube so that the bubble of air would float up and escape. Also for people who are transporting such a device it is advised to carry it upside down as a sudden jolt to a right upped instrument can break the glass at the vacuum end as the heavy mercury shoots upward without any resistance.
You are not only a fantastic scientist. You are also a great story teller. Unfortunately I couldn't see the last 2 minutes because gready YT decided to replace them with an advert )-:
Fabulous lecture dear Professor Andrew! Honestly, I was partially familiar with Hg barometer and most of the first half I was thinking how to fill it without trapping an air bubble in - imagine how sad I was that your has the same issue. I hope you will fix it perfectly soon. Lovely reactions, I must admit. All the best!
Thank you for this amazing video. But can you find out the missing reaction equations? I would appreciate it. Could the orange come from Iodine (red) mixed with the yellow of the Mercury iodide? What causes the different colours at the first flask with the sodium hydroxide? 🤔😊👏
Gotta say, I really absolutely love these lectures, and might I suggest if these are to continue for a while, to invest in a cheap lav mic? It gets hard to hear you sometimes... :).
Andrew could You make a RUclips about dimethyl-ether. Shawn Noyes said it would be a much better diesel-engine fuel! less NOx! What are the advantages and disadvantages? Could DME be mixed with diesel?
The natural first (Occam’s) assumption to explain how or why a particle like a photon (or electron, etc) might behave as an uncertain location particle while also like a polarizable axial or helical wave ''packet'', given that everything in the universe from electrons to solar systems are in orbit with something else pulling them into polarizable axial or helical apparent waves depending on the orientation of their orbits as they travel thru space, and given that we know we’re in a sea of undetectable dark matter but don’t know where it’s disbursed, is that they’re in orbit with an undetectable dark matter particle pulling them into polarizable axial or helical apparent waves as they travel where the speed of their orbit determines the wavelength and the diameter is the amplitude which would explain the double slit, uncertainty, etc. No?
Growing up, Dad would often ask us to go check the barometer reading for him. Ofc always requiring a gentle tap to make sure the needle had settled properly.

The last minutes of this video are the stereotype of chemistry: Slightly overexcited old man in a lab coat mixes liquids together in beakers, shakes them and comments on the colour changes. :D
RI exists for two centuries and remains solvent. When challenged about the abhorrent practice of including advertisements in educational content, claims it would fiscally implode without youtube ad revenue. Funny.
Ahaha, do you think they've lasted for 200 years without the concept of money? Or without financial troubles? I'm old enough to remember when a CEO nearly bankrupted them in the early 2000s. I'm actually surprised (and kind of relieved) that they're still going. And if my 0.001 pennies I've generated by watching this video and its ads can help them survive, I'd say take my eyeballs, good sirs.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video and this whole series by Andrew! Perhaps Andrew can do some clock reactions in an upcoming video and how we can make clock reactions using at home chemicals? I’m so intrigued by them even as an adult and they are great fun!
I'm not a student but I believe we should all be striving to learn more at all ages.. That's a lovely barometer and a bargain 👍 Look forward to your next lecture.
HOW IS THERE SOMEONE WHO DISLIKED THIS VIDEO?!?!?! thank you professor szydlo, i hope you keep making these videos until the end of time, you got a instant like from me before even watching
another great video from the Szydlo team, thanks Andrew and Oscar.....60 years old and enjoying every minute of them.....and still learning....fantastic....
And after a few millenia we found out the whole thing is based on ripples of a canvas of energy like cymatic of a liquid like plasma universe. These "ripples" are the result of a cavitation process of E = 0 creating the space where energy oscillates in geometrically organised potentials (quasi crystalls). For such a long time we ask "What keeps it all together?" The reason we never found out about the resonance of space defined by a vibration. Listen to your thoughts - the information is Sound and any chemical reaction based on resonance of photons - no light without sound, no photon without a phonon and no whatsoever dynamic without the space for potentials. -- OM --
People, please stop complaining about the audio! It isn't being recorded with professional equipment like the other lectures you've used to watch. It's a digital camera on a tripod and it's probably Oskar recording it, like most (amateur) RUclips videos are. If one has trouble understanding, try the subtitles generated automatically by RUclips. They're not perfect but accurate enough. Thank you.
Yet another brilliant video from the man himself, Andrew Szydlo. He's certainly kept himself busy during lockdown and the rest of us educated and entertained.
Andrew absolutely has to be everyone’s favourite teacher!! He has that brilliant ability to explain things in a way someone with a “working understanding” of the knowledge can only do. A truly brilliant mind that doesn’t dictate doctrine but explains working principles so clearly from the origins of human understanding and passes on that functioning knowledge in a way I worry many teachers are incapable of. Knowledge like a functioning machine in the mind! Would love to hear from him a larger selection of books that are crucial to understanding the evolution of scientific knowledge up to the late 20th century as I feel to many people have lost those foundations science is built on and having that knowledge is crucial to understanding not just modern times and technology but a clearer picture of what the next generation of evolution in scientific understanding is going to be. As always very much appreciate Andrew taking the time and the Royal Institute for making it available. Love the barometer, my grandfather always had a large collection of very cool well made clocks and devices collected in his travels. Scientific curiosities and puzzles. From a time when people not only made cool things but people appreciated cool well built, finely crafted things. I think I have to much in common with Andrew from being a Volvo man that has to work on my own cars and appreciates the engineering and the build quality to the economics of the lifestyle it provides to the social class that appreciates them. The pursuit for knowledge of everything from science to the arts. I’m a musician myself and a painter. I wonder if his curiosity of music ever got so far as to wonder where, when and how the instruments came from? They were the most technologically advanced things on the planet for a long time! What music is and where it comes from? How it’s able to bring people together and what it connects to😁
Back in high school ' ordinary level physics' was one of my favourite physic books. Seeing it in this video brings back alot of memories. Along with this was another book called ' physics for today and tomorrow' by Tom Duncan. Anyone else who came across these books?
That, sir, is a beautiful barometer. Did it come with correction tables? Some of these came with tables that not only corrected for mercury and glass coefficients but the brass scales as well! In skilled hands they were accurate to one tenth of one millimetre Hg. Question. Do you know of a reasonably obtained liquid of SG approx 1.0 that will not evaporate under strong vacuum? I wish to place a 10m barometer on a building, thus being able to read barometric pressure at a 1:1 ratio. I thank you for your time.
Andrew Szydlow's "At home" lectures are one of those great things I will miss after lockdown. I do hope he carries on with these, I already look forward to the next one!
i like the normal content here, but i gotta say id be ok if this became a mostly Andrew channel. Love the lectures
Impossible to be complimentary enough. Andrew, as always, is amazingly fluent, wide-ranging and informative in his presentation.
10:16 - "Atomos" does not mean very small, it means "indivisible" (from a + tomos meaning "no cut").
Ah, a fellow Greek fan
Can we still trust his chemistry?
@@fukpoeslaw3613 yes we can.
@@jkobain okay then, thanks for the confirmation, for a brief moment I started to doubt!

Watching Andrew's videos, I am reminded that I learned the most from teachers who loved their subjects. Andrew's passion is "Infectious." ❤️
Another amazing video from Andrew and the Royal Institution
People wonder what class privilege is. Imagine being young Alex and going to Highgate School and having this wonderful man as your science teacher.
Love Dr Szydlo but when he calls someone an unbelievable character, that's an achievement that should be awarded on a plaque.
Awesome! This is why I love Chemistry. Maybe someday I can study it.
Andrew = fantastic

I didn't expect to be barometer-shamed today
The densest liquid at NTP is caesium tungstate :) (i think!)

Someone’s been drinking the mercury again
Like the video hope you do some more 🤘🤘🥰🥰
can somebody name this painting on his right, please

Good video! He’s beginning to look like Doc Brown from back to the future. Nothing hair coloring can’t solve.

Please slow down sir. Not all the viewers are "native English speaker scientists". I am neither.

'Matter' is light
One thing he cant show us is high pressure next to a vacum without a barrier :) that prove we live in a closed system :) the earth is flat Norway :)

You keep mercury in a porous jar? 🫨
hey there finally 2nd comment but 20th view
love ROYAL INSTITUTION LECTURES!!

Another brilliant talk from Dr. Szydlo. He has a very special style and great historical knowledge.
Lab coat sealed the deal.
Very interesting like those videos very much. Next time tell us about the pins on your collar.
You are a great Man . But, I can show here not far the fauntain of life or the liquids that make the body young. Take it for granted.
Your anneroid barometer cost £10 -- good value. Mine cost 6d!
Who needs a fume-cupboard when you're experimenting in your own home?
Is this supposed to be serious or a spoof of Dr Brown from Back to the Future? This guy is too much.
no explosions in this episode?
Thank you sir. It's such a pleasure to learn from you. Kind regards from Switzerland to all British friends.

Yeah, I guessed it was mercury.
Andrew Szydlo is with us again, and I'm happy because of that.
Thanks for creating a new vid! I am missing these excellent science shows!
I want to hear about the character who sold you the barometer. Do share!
Love his videos :)
Beautiful lecture congratulations!
I can just imagine Andrew laid on the floor colouring in that picture like a kid... :D
he probably coloured it in with the differently coloured mercury compounds from the last part of the video
