      It's not regional. There may be some micro community that pronounces it as such, due to too much inbreeding in the small towns of the Utah Desert, but it is not a "regional dialect" or pronunciation.
      I live in said "region". Cody's video was the first time I had ever heard such garbage.

      What’s really weird is that most people actually like my handwriting. I don’t know how anyone can like my handwriting, but apparently a lot of people do for some reason unknown to me.

  • @ScrapScience
    @ScrapScience 5 лет назад +33

    You shouldn't need to worry about oxygen being generated when using a platinum electrode. While the theoretical voltage needed to generate oxygen (1.23 volts) is lower than that of chlorine (1.36 volts), on a platinum surface the evolution of oxygen is actually around 0.95 volts more than is thermodynamically required, compared to about 0.10 volts more for chlorine. This makes the overall potential required for generating chlorine 1.46 volts, and makes oxygen's 2.18 volts. Along with the fact that there are a LOT of chloride ions in solution to react with, this should mean that chlorine will be favoured for the anode reaction by a large margin. Unless you run the cell at a crazily high current density, or let the concentration of the chloride ion drop very low, there should be virtually no oxygen generated from the cell.

    • @dimitar4y
      @dimitar4y 5 лет назад +9

      I'd say run a test for oxygen anyway to avoid making dangerous assumptions.

    • @6alecapristrudel
      @6alecapristrudel 5 лет назад +8

      With that bigass battery charger he has at least 5 volts and looking at the numbers on it something like 10 amps. Looking at the anode it's probably doing a good chunk of those 10 too. Even though you can run stupid high current through these cells in the first place he's probably pushing it a bit too much here.
      Current efficiency will also suffer a lot due to the sodium amalgam staying in the flask with the electrodes. As chlorine escapes the solution will go alkaline making "bletch" right then and there in the flask, killing chlorine production.
      Also there's lots of overpotential on the mercury too bringing the cell voltage even higher than 2.18V. The theoretical potentials are rough guidelines at best.

      It's not as bad as people say, exactly because it is so highly toxic and reactive, the smallest amount makes you run away, so unless you're not suddenly releasing a full tank of chlorine in an enclosed space, it's not very dangerous. But it sure is annoying to take a sniff of chlorine unexpectedly.

      @gubx42 5 лет назад +2

      Building a fusion reactor is not that hard. A fusor will cost a few thousand dollars and it takes some skills and precautions but it is accessible to hobbyists. Also note that while real nuclear fusion will happen, the energy produced will be very low and such a design cannot be used to power anything. It can be used as a neutron source though.
      And while a fission reactor is super simple in theory (just put a bunch a fissile material in a box), there is no way you are getting enough of that fissile material. We are talking like tons of natural uranium. It can be made smaller by using weapons grade uranium, about the amount that was in the Hiroshima bomb, but with the issue that if you have that, getting them into 2 pieces and smashing them together is all it takes to make an Hiroshima explosion.

    Cody, firstly I love your channel and your content. I hardly ever comment on videos, but I felt compelled to say that I think it would be awesome to see you build a DIY NMR spectrometer using the Earth's magnetic field! I can't think of a better youtuber for this kind of project.

    Hello Cody, Have you considered building a membrane electrodialysis device (could be used for other chemicals)?
    I got a contact in china that can sell small amounts of anionic or cationic membranes (very difficult to find, took me ages), let me know if you are interested.
    Thumb up so he can see it.

      Pretty sure you can accomplish the same with a divided cell with Ceramics in between. You run it in reverse for starters and swap the fluids, this puts Ions inside of the ceramic and causes it to act as a bridge for the current.
      Doing what he is accomplishing above can be done with ease using a Divided cell. I generally use them to make various Oxidizers.

    Clorox is my favorite brand of beverage. Their stuff always has this kick in the flavor that I can't quite put my finger on, and whenever I drink it, it's like drinking a sleeping potion that teleports me to Dreamland. I will say that Dreamland looks more like an ICU than I expected but it's pretty sweet! Too bad the Dreamland guardians won't let me leave my special bed, though.

    He said blech lol......but way cool as always! Are you really sure that pump is sufficiently circulating that mercury ? I wish you explained that part better. I'm sure there's some solid principles at work there but IDK. I know you said it doesn't need to be a strong pump which it certainly isn't. But it looks like it might circulate it once per year. You should maybe test that.

      *Bletch: Intentional mispronunciation of bleach in order to boost comment numbers. ;)"*

    Cody,i am quite confused about mercury... i have wondered for a long time about its dangers,in your video of flushing mercury down a toilet,you touched the mercury and was only worried about having cuts on your hands,but in 2015 you made a video on how to treat a mercury spill,and you treated it a lot more seriously...when is mercury dangerous and when isnt it?

    • @0x8badf00d
      @0x8badf00d 5 лет назад +4

      Metallic mercury is (mostly) harmless. It doesn't react very easily, so it's pretty good at staying in its metallic form, but it does fume pretty easily.
      Mercury salts can be absorbed by the body and interfere with all kinds of stuff in you.
      Mercury salts also bioaccumulate. The organic/fat-soluble salts are more bad.

    • @rxx4775
      @rxx4775 5 лет назад

      Oskar Skog so short term contact is fine,its only long term exposure that is harmful?

    • @0x8badf00d
      @0x8badf00d 5 лет назад +1

      No. It depends very much on what kind of mercury you're dealing with.

    • @0x8badf00d
      @0x8badf00d 5 лет назад +1

    • @Roset595

      if the mercury is left to sit, it can react with whatever it's sitting in and for much more dangerous compounds
