Lol something similar inspired me to begin as well actually. This process was my first experiment actually, which is why I chose it to be the first video
I love how getting a simple compound can make a chemical weapon and hydrogen at the same time. I just want cheap sodium hydroxide for making soap, but I might end up with a fun balloon if I use an old brewing bucket my dad made. Just gotta love chemistry.
Bro doesn't NaOH react with CO2 in the air to form Na2CO3? Also how are you sure that the final liquid you had was a sodium hydroxide solution and not sodium carbonate solution. Was the water heating up when added to the crystals? Can the resulting solution dissolve aluminum?
Yes that is exactly what happens, that’s a fair point, that process isn’t instant though so for a small time it likely was and remained sodium hydroxide There’s hardly any way of testing this what it was in the end, but as far as I reckon when I was first making this molecule, I mixed it with some vinegar hoping for a reaction after proving its basic, I however did not see any bubbles rising which surprised me, me being slightly new to reactions. Only after I waited a few days with some remaining chunks of it and mixed it again did I see bubbles. About heating up or dissolving aluminum I genuinely have no idea, didn’t test for that, I have a batch laying around so il test with a piece of tinfoil
@@ChemistryOnCreatine please let us know if it works on dissolving AL, maybe make an updated video attempting to make pure crystal sodium hydroxide etc! Thanks for the reply and love your video 🔥👍🏻
No elemental sodium is formed as an intermediate by electrolysis of sodium salts in aqueous solution. Instead water is reduced to hydroxide ions and hydrogen gas, because water has a higher standard potential than the sodium cation. So the sodium cations only stay spectator ions in this constellation, finally forming solid sodium hydoxide when water is evaporated. Sodium metal can only be obtained in absence of water by electrolysis of molten sodium salts.
I would suggest You doing some research for the topic You are about to teach to people, or don't explain it at all if You are not familiar with the topic. Good luck and stay safe!
In all honesty I’m not good with organic chemistry at all, for now, however I’d say I didn’t try to explain the processes happening, I only went over what I found elsewhere. I do not understand why it happens, which I don’t try to explain, but I do know that it definitely happens lol. I do agree with you though, I’d much rather stay away and will stay away from organic chemistry until I can actually understand it. Thank you and stay safe as well!
tips for people sodium hydroxide is VERY reactive with aluminum so make sure that yu dont use an aluminum cup or pot under this process and also sodium hydroxide reacting with aluminum may create dangerous amounts of hydrogen gas depending on the amount of NaOH you have made, and your house may win the next fireworks show. also instead of wasting money on 9V batteries just grab a "broken" charger because they usually are only broken on the port were you put it into the phone because people dont know how to have a lasting charger apparently even though ive used mine for 3 years but oh well.. were was i... oh yeah, cut off the end and strip the 2 wires, the blue/black is negative while red is positive, white is ground, its safety stuff so it aint important. other than that this video is fine
Nah i just didn’t have anything to say about the rest in terms of personal experience so I didn’t. Everything you said is true about the NaOH making hydrogen gas in a reaction with aluminum, ultimately making sodium aluminate as well. But yea cutting a wire and using it as a power supply would also work. I heard that’s how people charge vapes, so as far as I can guess that means it gives a stable output of dc voltage. 12 volts as well I think, higher than the battery I used
@@ChemistryOnCreatine ultimately its the amps that do the job but ofc you need sufficient voltage to carry it, a usual phone charger it like 5V at like 2A, but only like 300mA will really go though with the right electrolyte and setup.
most likely rust if you used an iron electrode, if its not that then it might be... iodine from using iodine containing salt, if thats not it either then it idk it have to get more details on what u did.
Honestly, I don’t know. But that doesn’t really concern me here as I’m more interested the sodium hydroxide side. Eventually, if I keep this running for ages, yea the other side will become chlorate, but for that moment and sodium hydroxide production that doesn’t really matter
Look all I'm saying is the word kosher invokes thoughts of why do I need a lawyer capable of explaining what I did? Why am I being audited by the ATO? which psychaitrist did I not seem sufficiently small hat approving of ? I mean I was circumsized and it's a smart move same as the preference to lamb lowest viral load very wise choices but considering I've always been this way it all balances out right?
NaOH is used in the creation of pretzels, but only in small amounts and in fact NaOH is quite caustic so it's definitely not safe to be eating, At least not like how you would eat salt. It wouldn't taste very good anyways.
while not a very scientific comparison, its about the same as bleach (in low concentrations) in terms of how quick it can kill you. depending on your body weight and the condition of your organs a few ounces of bleach will mess you up a bit, neutralize stomach acid an such too. hydrogen peroxide (in low concentrations) is also around the same. the human body is pretty good at breaking bad shit down so more common chemicals typically have a method of being broken down in the body. so in conclusion while not recommended it is, technically, safe to eat in very small amounts with food/water but will not taste good or have any benefit for doing so whatsoever. this is assuming you define safe to eat as won't kill or seriously injure you. but don't eat naoh, it's 2023 table salt is cheap and clean.
@@ChemistryOnCreatine you raise a very good point if it ain't fun it's work👍 at any rate with a bit of planning the Cl can be used in other projects rather than waisting it and get a bit more bang for your buck if ya get my drift 😊. Enjoyed the video and keep up the good work thanks
This guys is based

Amazing
Yup.
Thanks for sharing that type of crazy stuff, you inspire me and I imagine others people to study and do dangerous shit in a smart way !

Thank you for keeping me interested in science. I was getting so discouraged.
You are a master I've been looking all over for this nicely done thank you ❤
Thank you I do my best
OMG ... smart AND funny. Subscribed about 15 seconds in. Brilliant!
Thank you thank you, exactly the vibe I was going for, it’s still however hard to find a balance of these two aspects for me haha
Thank you for trying out this dangerous stuff for me.

It definitely reacted with the aluminum, though it didn’t fully dissolve I felt the tinfoil to be much thinner

@@ChemistryOnCreatine the
Na+ (ion) don´t react. Na0 (metal) does. By electricity, [Cl-] goes Cl2, and [Na+] goes Na0, Na0 + H2O => NaOH + H2; Also some hidrolysis H2O => H+ + HO-
You mean Na2O?

Hi,
What do you think about using membrane from reverse osmosis? It is a polymer.
Can you please suggest more effective membrane
Can i use a tissue paper for this process?

Sir, my caustic soda is slightly brownish. Is it okay?
most likely rust if you used an iron electrode, if its not that then it might be... iodine from using iodine containing salt, if thats not it either then it idk it have to get more details on what u did.
can i use graphite rod as bridge, instead of that
also noticed some issues with your stoichiometry, pretty solid reactivity explanation though
mysteriusbhoice is that you?
Good day mr
Can I make it large scale about 50 kg caustic soda per day?
Depends how much salt you pour into the thing and the current power
How long it will take?
So at what point does it turn into chlorate??
Honestly, I don’t know. But that doesn’t really concern me here as I’m more interested the sodium hydroxide side. Eventually, if I keep this running for ages, yea the other side will become chlorate, but for that moment and sodium hydroxide production that doesn’t really matter
What if accidentally put positive in the negative cup after has been going a bit just concern that could happen
That’s how I accidentally discovered what would soon, with some optimization, become the method I use to produce copper hydroxide

Is the salt with NaoH safe to eat
Idk

No. NaOH is very dangerous, and toxic, and you should not be eating it.

what did you use as membrane?
A cotton ball works just fine, if anything I made it very thin
"Kosher salt", lol... I didn't know there was a non-kosher salt...
