Argon walks into a bar. Bar man says, "We don't serve noble gases." Argon doesn't react.
Argon is boring make silverazide!!!
Argon just needs the right environment to bring out their wild side. Get them in a mosh pit with some hydrogen, add a little pulsar dubstep, and the result is Argon monohydride. Computer simulations also show that if Argon got into a gang bang with 60 carbons, they would merge into a stable molecule.
Buhahahaha 😂😂
good one indeed
I saw this joke previously but with helium
Brings me back to my youth in 1960 finding a pound of silver nitrate in a college dump. Made some beautiful things with the reduced product. Btw, newish alloy called “Argentum” alloyed with germanium instead of copper. Much more corrosion resistant and does not develop fire scale like sterling does in manufacture.
The quality of this video is outstanding
Except for the narrator
@@tylerjames1716 he's Russian dude. He's doing his best to speak in comprehensible English.
@@tylerjames1716 I enjoy his accent. How many languages do you speak?
@@tylerjames1716 lmao why tho?
When i was in the army in the 70s we had radios that used silver zinc cells.
"We can conclude silver is a very shiny metal."
Yes
Most shiny!
I expected him to go on with that sentence and just lol'd when that was the end.
"anticlimactic" doesn't even begin to...
Thanks again for post another video of chemical elements! 👍
For who doesn't know the name of my country, Argentina, is inspired on the famous "Río de la plata" ("silver river" in English) because Spanish explorers of the XVI century beleaved that the actual Paraná river was a path to a huge silver deposit (the Potosí's mines, in Perú) and, in 1810, the founders of the country took the legend to bautize it with the actual name, so by analogy "Argentum/Argent" became in "Argentina". 😊
The crystals were mesmerizing ❤
Agreed!
Indeed! That looks amazing, and better than any movie I've ever seen.
Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants, debt is the money of slaves.
You just call me a slave?
Well thank you for ruining a perfect day!
I'm a gentleman.
@@sheepleslayer586 Are you in debt?
@@terryboyer1342 most everyone is in debt. You have to put yourself into debt to raise your credit.
When he bent the coin i started crying like Munch's "the scream" 😂
2:40 In the US, those coins CAN be spent as currency.
Only if you want to lose money lol
John Cooper yes omgosh yes. The robbery that happens here.
They can be if the merchant decides to accept them, it is entirely voluntary. They’d be stupid not to though, as silver eagles have only a $1 face value, but cost around $20 to buy one.
@@uspockdad6429 and that value will only go up with time, while the value of a dollar will only continue to fall.
Those Silver Coins are the real money.
Same if you have some Gold coins.
A most beautiful presentation of Argent! I am showing this to everyone I know. You did a wondrous job of artistically showing this element. Huge task to explain something that has been important and loved for thousands of years. Awesome.
When he bent that Silver American Eagle...
I FELT THAT.
Nah, it's probably fake
I will get r/whoosh later
he's russian lol
It kinda hurt my soul
Melting it felt even worse.
I wish my chemistry teacher had been as inspiring as you.
Yes! So informative!
There is a difference between being infotained and being educated.
dreggory82 cool
Dang, you’d like him much less once he brings out the formulas and real chemistry stuff...
did this in my chemistry class to coat the inside of coke bottles with silver. (yes, I know it's spelled with 'ch')
13:20 There are some washing machines, that came into the market several years ago, that use silver in small amounts and within the construction of the drum(s) or as a solution that pours in small amounts in the different cycles of the wash. In the past, sometimes people would leave or place their silver coins in the washing machine with their laundry to give the same effect.
There is also a deodorant using silver to do that.
And there are some silver pallets in my airhumidifier to prevent the water from going smelly after some days.
Medicinally, silver is essential for brain & nerve functions. It also has antibiotic propertys when ionised in "clean water".
It's nice to see your channel improve over the years... Good job
It's so bad that videos with quality like this not popular yet, i hope this channel can educate more and more people
Glad to see this video! This is why I collect silver of course. It looks great (and doesn’t cost 1500 usd per oz like gold)
Really I dint expect
MY favorite CHANNEL
Thank you for this, and thanks again for making the vid in English, so much stuff I didn't know!
Note that silver does NOT have the highest thermal conductivity, just the highest among pure metals. There are plenty of substances and even pure elements that conduct heat much better, for instance diamond, but even that doesn't hold a candle to a heat pipe.
I really love your videos! Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge! I collect Silver and just wanted t suggest that you might prefer using the Canadian Silver Maple leaf coin as it is even more pure (.9999 fine) as opposed to the American Silver Eagle which is .(999 fine)... they actually both have the same amount of silver but the Silver eagle has a small amount of copper to make it stronger. Additionally, the Silver maple should be slightly cheaper by a dollar or two per ounce. Thanks Again!
Indelible inks used for marking voters are Silver Nitrate based.
8:20 My dad, a photographer, used to have these around the dark-room but I never understood why; now I know.
Yup, same as with the skin, those chemicals are used in the photographic process to remove unwanted silver.
This video was super informative, but damn, it was hard watching him destroy that silver eagle.
@ᴄᴏᴠᴏɪᴅ • you mean 20 euros
One of your BEST! Thanks.
Silver is a very versatile mineral no doubt. This guy is smart and interesting to listen to.
Silver 2020!
Great lesson on Ag! There are so many applications using silver that it boggles the mind. It's astounding that such a miracle metal has a price of only $ 18.00 per ounce. Should the world catch hold of that amazing arrangement, a thousand times the price is not out of question!
Mike Maloney has it going triple digits in the future. He would know. Great analysis to back up his thesis. Great deterrent against hyperinflation. Plus collecting it actually pretty fun too
Your video's are absolutely superb!
My favorite noble element 😻 I love this very shiny metal
It isn't a noble element, are you crazy?
@@darthabhinav It is noble enough.
Lai Jacky not enough
@@darthabhinav It seems at least almost all chemists disagree with you, according to wikipedia: "The short list of chemically noble metals (those elements upon which almost all chemists agree) comprises ruthenium (Ru), rhodium (Rh), palladium (Pd), silver (Ag), osmium (Os), iridium (Ir), platinum (Pt), and gold (Au)."
Though i think we just have a case of miscommunication here.
There seems to be no definition for "noble element" but "noble metals", i think what's going on here is, that Lord Rhodium means "noble metal", and you were thinking he meant "noble gas"
@@danielroder830 Are there any "Noble" metals? The same as noble gases. Which BTW, some aren't noble anymore.
Great video, this one is probably my fav!
If there was a game that involves silver or restoring silver to its original luster, the player must also look for aluminum, water, table salt and baking soda. It would make a great little puzzle or side-quest.
Thanks, guys, I missed an component of the basic human valuation of metals; relfectivity must play a role, or be connected at a fundamental physical level to malleability, ductility and conductivity (connectivity).
If you don't have copper plate to make silver from silver nitrate solution, you can use freshly stripped copper wire in the solution.
Great one ...SILVER AND GOLD is my cup of tea 🤩 as goldhunter
Silver is the best conductor at room temperature, they used it in the manhattan project as at the time superconductivity was not yet discovered and they needed the strongest possible electromagnet. Nothing to do with copper scarcity, please check your facts.
Isn't gold a better conductor than silver?
@@milokaw4193 no, it's not even as good as copper for conductivity. But it is the 3rd most conductive element. However, it doesn't form resistive oxides, which makes it an excellent plating for electrical contacts.
Been enjoying this guys videos lately. His accent always puts a smile on my dial.
Interesting ! Nitrate sliver is also used in pottery for cristallization glazes and raku.
What an amazing coincidence, I just bought a 1 oz. silver coin!
Oxygen. Potassium.
You know, just how awesome you are?
Totally.
Totally awesome ... from your long time subscribers here in Orlando, Florida, USA.
It was not clear from the pronounciation, but there are three distinct silver compounds with similar pronounciation but different nature:
silver NITRATE - AgNO3 - the photographic stuff
silver NITRIDE - Ag3N - the explosive stuff
silver NITRITE - AgNO2 - reagent useful for organic chemistry, e.g. oxidation and substitution reactions
That conclusion was priceless
Alloying silver with germanium as well as copper (and I think traces of other elements) makes it resistant to tarnish. The alloys are sold as “Argentium”
I make bad chemistry puns cuz all the good ones argon!!!!!!
They should call the coppers on you and you should be lead to jail for that pun. Where you will be one silicon among many where all the punners will be kept until they barium. Because puns are boron.
You're proof the world is made up of alkynes of people!
@@KowboyUSA Lol
You guys made me laugh...
@@uTube486 My pleasure!!
I learned something new today. Thank you.
You dont have to wait an hour to clear your silver that way.
Just boil water add only baking soda and splash of vinegar to the foil bowl and your silver will look new in 1 or 2 mins!
Whip and clean it for extra clean!
Was born with a rusted iron spoon in my mouth.
me to.
Wood spoon for me.
@MichaelKingsfordGray spot is my dogs name & his back is lower than most.
Amazing video thanks 👍 subbed!!
Truly appreciate what you do! Your vids learn me so good. Lol
I love the conclusion of this video, "silver is shiny" 😂😂
*crying and having a crisis while watching this video*
me: nice
For that wide information you provide a million likes isn't enough👏🏻
When silver reflects and hits your eye:
*Ag*
*bruh*
Haaha
Take a like and get out
Awesome ❤
Great video but I wish it would have touched more upon silvers anti bacterial properties. For instance milk stored in a silver pitcher will spoil slower and many silver solutions can be used as topical antibacterial treatments. Some people even drink colloidal silver in the mistaken idea that it will make them healthier, and instead the metal is deposited in the skin and gums, turning them dark.
Before penicilin, silver spoon was a birth present , much less infection than with other metals spoon...
During WW2 it was requesioned for nuclear program, just as sheilding, after the war they refused to return it to the federal reserve.
Today some is used in satellite magnetic shielding.
Nano dots research. Superconductor research
Are you sure... I thought wire was from Ag B/C copper was more useful in other industries, and Ag conducts electricity best.
The silver from the federal reserve was requisitioned by the Manhattan project to make windings for the coils for the electromagnetic Uranium isotope separators, the so called Calutrons. All of it was accounted for and all was returned. See Richard Rhoads "The Making of the Atom Bomb."
Magnetic shielding is done with mumetal ("permalloy") foil made of 80% Ni and 20% Fe usually.
@@karhukivi what has that got to do with anything?
@@donaldasayers Mu-metal is used for magnetic shielding, not silver, as in the comment by Roger C above.
Learned today many more about silver, thx to you😄👍
Great video. Love the accent.
Wow. Silver is truly a magical metal.
Very educational. Thanks for another great and informative video! 👍
I'm a welder by trade and my house burnt down and ruined my silver stack, I built a propane furnace with a blower and melted it all down at once and poured it into a 2,500 ozt. brick that weighs just over 171 lbs. worth over
$45,000, I polished it to a near perfect shine and it's freaking awesome, silver is really awesome when you see a block that's to heave to pick up by hand, I decided to put it up 4sell
So, silver is not ruined, hope it will help you to get a new house !
When I'm in the mood to be a nerd, this is my go to channel! Can you do a video on how is it possible that elements can create organic life? We all came from a single cell delivered from our space, how?
Literally had no idea that silver was used in manufacturing of mirrors! That was awesome when you made one on the glass slide. Also like the alternative photography bit too.
Didja know that Grand Coulee dam, in Washington State, uses silver windings in some of their generators?
WWII saw a hug demand for copper, so generators were being stripped and re-wound in silver from the US mint.
The metal is still part of the US mint inventory, and there is no need for guards; the silver is in the rotor!
They were supposed to revert to copper after the War, but it never happened due to costs.
They are a tiny bit more efficient than their copper brethren...
Interesting
Se love your videos, keep tha gud worku
Silver has health benefits. Colloidal silver soap, salve, and other products help heal skin.
I need you as my techer in my life.. i love chem and your demonstration skills
Fun fact. The 1966 Australian 50cent coin contained silver
Thanks a lot for sharing the information
The silver crystals remind me of a Mandelbrot pattern.
Beautiful - it would be nice to see or have crystals of sliver on another surface, which could be stored out of the liquid.
Dude, please re-do the zinc one. I'm not watching a video of yours that hasn't got your voice in it, and zinc is one of my favorite elements.
Thanks for video..i learn many thing of chemistry..i loved it
Thank you for your interesting videos Thoisoi
Silver is a favorite metal of mine 😇😍🥰😜🤩
Yeah there's plenty of it in there 😂
@@sleepfgc yeah but he's not sharing😙😑😔😪
Ohh it really is a beautiful shiny metal.
Ok, I give it to you, you do make it clear your presentations are for informative purposes when you bent the SAE
So informative thank you for all you do
"So in the end, we can conclude that silver is a very shiny metal"
not the mention that silver is a very good antibacterial
Ancient Greek Coinage.
Archaic period (until about 480 BC).
The earliest known electrum coins, Lydian and East Greek coins found under the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, are currently dated to the last quarter of the 7th century BC (625-600 BC).
These coins were issued either by the non-Greek Lydians for their own use or perhaps because Greek mercenaries wanted to be paid in precious metal at the conclusion of their time of service, and wanted to have their payments marked in a way that would authenticate them.
These coins were made of electrum, an alloy of gold and silver that was highly prized and abundant in that area.
In the middle of the 6th century BC, King Croesus replaced the electrum coins with coins of pure gold and pure silver, called Croeseids.
The credit for inventing pure gold and silver coinage is attributed by Herodotus to the Lydians.

Thank you Borat for explaining silver to us
Your English pronounciation has improved!
Resistivity
@@celestus87 how many languages do you speak again?
You got me on this one dad. Much thanks.
Great video 👍 , well done , always learning something new from watching your videos , Good job man.
Did you know - your body absorbs silver from your silver jewelry. I wear a silver engagement ring and silver kolovrat - I performed ICP-MS analysis on my own hair strands and found Silver in the 0.25 ppm range. Silver and Copper are extremely well tolerated by the human body, but they are highly toxic to other organisms - my question is why is that?
Really ??
The more gas you release.... hilarious!
Silver is attracted to the magnet only because the magnet moves. In other words it does not have magnetic attraction, it due to the low resistivity inducing a current in the silver, and those electrons then produce the magnetic force. The difference is, that a non moving magnet does not attract silver at all.
Great video! Excellent work.
Very Nice video. Next i want a video on arsenic.Please.Love from India.
S.ghosh Subho YES! I just showed this Ag video to my family, and we agree Arsenic would be a huge video and fascinating one to tackle. This Ag one is just top of his game.
Silver sword for monsters, steel sword also for monsters
Silver bullet for monsters(werewolves)
You are giving us good knowledge thank you keep it up
Poem: Silver not only reflect the area it is.But beauty in forms of simplicity. I process film professional. Silver is a toxic heavey metal not to be dumped into the sewer.It is formed into meltalic silver byproduct.
Awesome video! I thought silver would be boring but this video was really well produced. It came out really interesting. :D
Yes it is intersting😡
I like your sense for the beauty of nature and science.
I can just hear coin collectors screaming at this video when that coin got bent.
If Silver has the highest reflectance, why is aluminum used in optics for reflecting visible light, as with first-surface mirrors and diffraction gratings? Also, gold, not silver, is the preferred reflector for IR.
Very interesting, always look forward to your videos
I had a horrible experience with silver nitrate. In my school, we had a science exhibition and my team and I were demonstrating fun and interesting chemical reactions. One of which was dissolving copper pellets in silver nitrate solution to form copper nitrate and obtain silver on surface of copper pellets.
When I was disposing off the the remaining mixture of copper, copper nitrate and silver nitrate, a lot of it splashed onto my hand and my hand was covered in black spots for a month! I wish i had known this trick earlier
This dude is easily an epic boss.
Thank you fo ryour education.
It's the sulphur, that's why it tarnishes. Is it sulfur or sulphur? I think they're both right.
Did you know that when palladium was first discovered, it was described by the chemist as a noble metal that only "throws down" gold, platinum, and silver?
