Steam is water vapour above 100°C. When you allow a bit of water to vaporize at room temperature it will produce/release water vapor. Can you see it? No.
Uh... this is wrong to some degree. There's both water vapor and steam in the atmosphere, and whether they're visible or not depends on the atmospheric pressure, humidity, temperature and lighting. Arguably, you can see both at the same time, none, or only one of the two, but there's no rule in which is visible and which is not, as it depends on the conditions solely. Also you can't see water vapor from rain puddles for example, and that's not steam.
@@Kebab136 Steam *is* water vapour. There was some discussion years ago about the use of the two terms for H2O(g). That discussion was resolved when 'steam' was (loosely) defined as '"hot water vapour that comes with a warning sign". Steam is not a scientific term. But to put it in scientific terms it was 'agreed' that "steam" is water vapour above the boiling point of water and can therefore hurt a human (or other organism, think of steam-cleaning). One can't see H2O(g) but we can spot the difference in air-density if the gradient gets big enough. When a lot of H2O(g) gets released, we have a chance to see this effect.
Something the industrial safety training i got definently should have covered, covered the risk to burn/kill yourself but not that it can start environmental fires. Very interesting!
One idea that got to me is putting a nozzle at the end of the pipe to mix it with oxygen, like a bunsen burner. that way you should be able to light stuff on fire a lot better, as you said.
That's genius! Maybe have the boiling water also undergo electrolysis to negate the need for a nozzle... Wait, that might just blow up. Yeah, I like your idea.
Nothing like vapor jazz and science at 2 in the morning. Makes me feel like this scientist walks up to me opening his trench coat trying to sell me superheated steam on the low
DUDEEEEE YOUR Amazing. Ur just teaching us chemistry and most importantly ur teaching me the exact thing that is written in my book accept they don't show things irl. Thanks a lot. Love from Bangladesh and u guys need to subscribe real quick to this guy. Peace!!!
It's fascinating that super heated steam can cause a fire however while it is true that water can be very effective at extinguishing fires (putting fires out) I think that it's also worth mentioning that in specific types of fires that involve certain types of chemicals putting water on a fire that involves those chemicals will not only fail to put the fire out but it will also result in a violent or even explosive chemical reaction a well known example of water reactive chemicals are the alkali metals sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium. These alkali metals release flammable gases (hydrogen gas) on contact with water that hydrogen is likely to spontaneously ignite or even explode if those alkali metals come into contact with water so putting water on a fire that involves alkali metals is likely to cause a violent explosion which is basically the exact opposite of putting the fire out
You like living dangerously dont you? I respect that. 😁 I also like to live dangerously on my channel. I think half my subacribers watch to see if this is the video where I poison myself. 😂
@@PoorMansChemist Appreciate it! Nah, I haven't gone to school since 7th grade, so I'm pretty inexperienced. I was expelled for "distributing a controlled substance to a minor on school property." It was my ADHD medicine, lol. That was pretty dumb of me.
@ScienceReliance Lol!! Dude you were a kid. We all do dumb shit when we are young. It's all part of growing up. I myself was arrested more times than I can recall in my younger days (all misdemeanor, non-violent crimes; possession of less than 1oz marijuana mostly). Trust me in another 20 years you'll be laughing about it. You seem to have a good head on your shoulders. YT seems to like you so you can go far on here. Just be careful. If you ever have any chemistry questions I'm always happy to help. And if I don't know one of my mad lad subscribers probably will. 😁
bro, these videos are great. super interesting to watch, i bet that if you spike up the quality a bit you will blow up. keep on making this kind of stuff. also if you make a tutorial on how to build a bomb i will paypal 1 euro to you
Isn't this superheated steam what they warn about that can happen when boiling water in the microwave? Something about it exploding when you take it out??? Same thing or am I crazy?
That is just superheated water. While it has a temperature of above 100 °C it didn't vaporize as there was not the energy delivered to vaporize it. By taking it out the microwave you agitate it which delivers that energy, and it forcefully vaporizes and might burn you. It can't set things alight, and it propably won't happen if your container has a rough surface as that lowers the energy required. In the video he vaporized water (which is what happens when water in the microwave explodes) and heated it even further to a minimum of about 200 °C (Google said that's the autoignition temperature of paper) so it can deliver that heat to the object. In short, in the microwave you got water that instantly vaporizes, not steam that is hot enough to burn objects.
All steam is invisible. If you can see it it water vapor.
If you can see it, it is liquid water. If you can't, it's gaseous water, which can be caused by evaporation or boiling. Simple as that.

Keep making videos man, because at the current quality they are going to absolutely blow up one day

"And now you have the knowledge required to commit arson with water of all things" 😂
Did he actually act out Arson in the first scene? 😂
@@overthis lol, it was water in the gas can.
Just contact styropyro and ask him how he deals with the FBI. I'm sure he has useful cues.
I hope your smooth delivery gains traction and you get eleventy bajillion subscribers. Mac and Chee is good.
Incredibly underrated, this is crazy!
The monotone delivery makes these videos even more magical. Subbed.
I love the relatively short form, informative but still very fun video format, you got a lot ahead of you, just keep doing what you love man.

Loving your videos. Keep it up!!!
This is the second video i got on my homepage from you, i subbed right away man
I appreciate it, you're a big inspiration, Heisenberg!
This is an awesome channel keep up the great work!
You are a rising star in science youtube community... Keep shining brother
Great demonstration!
I’m amazed with the quality of this small Chanel
There's a very nice vibe to your videos. I love the deadpan humour. Cheers.
Thank you kindly

A very underrated Channel
Thanks m8, need the insurance money without getting too suspicious with the gas can
please continue making these ur videos are straight fire (no pun intended)
I'm so happy I found this gem channel before it blow up
This guy is cool. Keep making videos like this, your channel will grow fast.
Good video, ill be watching more as you upload
You have the beginnings of what could be a pretty big channel keep it up
I understand you than my science teacher 😁😂 make a rocket on the Next video 😁😁😁😁
Oh, I'll definitely be making a rocket😂
how do you not have 100k subs yet!? You’ve made me more interested in science than my teachers.
I just haven't posted much, but maybe I'll get there eventually. Thanks for the encouraging words!

Thats how power plants work as well!
i like the way you deliver your contents, new sub from me
Cool content and humor so I subscribed. Stay safe right 👍

Well, I got that covered, imagine my relief 😉👍
Bro these are so good why are you so small dawg how do invest i wanna get dividends when you blow up 😂😂😂😂
Remember me when you’re famous ‼️
Bro ur channel is amazing! I subbed and i cant wait for the next video!
I love your channel bro, Keep it up
these videos are actually baller
keep up the channel it is really entertainting
Youre doing great man. Think itll only be a matter of time before your channel gains "Steam" 🤣🤣
😂 Appreciate the encouraging words!
@@SomethingAbtScience think youll do great when you can get a lab and make nilered on par videos, but so far so great my dude.
