This experiment demonstrates how the element silicon can be extracted from sand. It also shows how flammable silane gas can be chemically generated from sand using magnesium metal.
@@TommyTechnetium I'm impressed that you were able to melt a borosilicate test tube! Would a heavier wall test tube work better or should this reaction be done in a crucible?
As methane and oxygen will combust with an ignition source and silane and oxygen combust on contact, is the ignition temperature of the silane below room temperature? Would the silane / oxygen mix ignite if both gasses were below 0°C? Would methane/oxygen ignite without a flame if the gasses were hot enough?
That was awesome. Thanks!
Professor what is the aim of this reaction?
Because i got confused about some rxn like why we do these rxns what after the rxn happened

@@i-love-comountains3850 A crucible would probably work better, but of course you then can't easily observe the reaction as it proceeds
Is this how they produce silicone blobs for IC manufacturing?
Hi bro ,
Can u explain Anti iron chemical properties, I want to how copper coin repel the needle by using anti iron chemical….

imagine inhalation of this silica [CANCER]
Wait... I'm going to get magnesium metal now ive had it before but it disappeared
Nice
Is this method relevant in making Silicone rubber.

Is there a way of obtaining Si in its pure form from SiO2?
Pretty sure industrial use of pure silicon depends on use of silane gas.
Yes. React it with a reducing agent
I made a mess of kitchen window having this shoot out of a test tube 🙃

yes
Is any side reaction's component too toxic? I want to make and separate pure Si
There are definitely side reactions happening
I got confused, silicone extraction, but then the final product is back to SiO2? 🤔
Very cool!Fun to watch!
