Nile talks about lab safety: • Chemistry is dangerous.
lemme take a shot of that, like a breath of fresh air
a drink of fresh air
-183C So, not that cold. It's like having a drink of Michigan air in the winter.
I know you all are joking but if you drink even a drop of it the pressure build up would cause your stomach to rupture
@@Name-eg1uf Huh... I thought you'd die though frezzing your insides first. The pressure build up probably wouldn't do it, because there's this thing called burping.
@@LaskyLabs strictly depends on the volume of the liquid.
I worked at a rocket test facility that had thousands of gallons of LOX, near pure hydrogen peroxides, hydrazine and then there was the exotic fuels. It was a crazy place to work.
+Abby Babby I hope not all next to each other :p
Abby Babby you mean death trap
Abby Babby ooh, hydrazine. Truly the most vicious common fuel. Not as bad as fluorine and hydrogen though.
@@bitsbytes123 fluorine is dangerous in its gas form
@@bitsbytes123 chlorine trifluoride (ClF3)
+Nile Red
About that whole never bringing it near grease or flammable oil thing... lol oh and btw liquid oxygen is denser than water ice so the water should float, I.e those white specs suspended in the liquid were actually solid argon. which menes that you were getting a lot of air into the test tube.
+Cody'sLab hey cody c:
Cody!
+Cody'sLab Do you think that there`s a way to extract the argon before it turns back into gas?
+Cody'sLab Yessss ily
your my favorite RUclips channel ❤
I love how it's boiling so violently at room temp but it's still putting out ice crystal mist instead of steam.
It's not putting out any mist or steam itself, it's freezing the atmospheric water
It's putting out gaseous oxygen (its invisible). When water boils it also puts out water in gas form.
My mom: why do you have a big bong in your room?!
Me: 1:19
That's actually hilarious hahahahaha
A bong is a vacuum filtration device filtered through a water bath, where your lungs are the vacuum source.
i did NOT know oxygen (liquid form) is MAGNETIC. have just learned something new.
Anniyan Da just draw the molecular orbital diagram and you will see why its paramagnetic
I look it up while I was wondering about orbital mixing and the bond dissociation energies related to the molecular orbital diagram. However, you should've understood this if you listen in your inorganic chemistry class.
Can anyone explain what is diamagnetism and paramagnetism?
Everything is magnetic. Some things more, some things less, some even repel magnetic fields (diamagnetic). But there is nothing really non-magnetic.
It is 0 2- for its oxidation state after all
You put so much work into your channel, you respond to almost every comment, and explain everything thoroughly. It sucks that people aren't that interested in chemistry/science anymore.
+Jacob Stephens haha, yeah. I like reading the comments and responding. For some reason, people are afraid of chemistry and science :(
5 years later, 1.6 million views on this video alone and 3.2 million subs lol
I do
I've never seen the para magnetism of liquid oxygen with that much clarity. Great work!
Hi Paul, if you like the paramagnetic qualities of oxygen, Periodic videos did a good video also. No disrespect intended Nile, great video as usual.
+Shona O'Neill Thanks! And I am aware of periodic videos, its just neat to see a home lab produce similar results :)
Paul Pyro Absolutely :-) I love Niles videos

O please o please....let this be satirical
Bro imagine being able to store this stuff and pretend to be a wizard by opening a vile of this stuff and pouring it on a torch
I used to work in a lab designing portable LOX breathing devices for patients with decreased lung function, and we had huge coolers full of LOX to play around with. We eventually descended into throwing gloved handfuls of it at each other when the other guy wanst looking. You know, as a prank. Because it stung really bad for a split second. Eventually, we triggered the alarms that warned of explosive levels of oxygen gas in the building, and caused a full scale evacuation of the entire facility, requiring not only the entire county fire department, but also a bomb squad to be called in. I got paid a lot of money at that job. Good times!
this is a “me and the boys” moment to be remembered
That's one complicated bong!
Maybe your just on the bong too much and don't listen at school
Or maybe a meth lab
Gerard Dunne
Maybe you're just on the internet too much and don't pay attention in Language Arts class, that comment was so obviously a joke that you'd have to not know English to not understand it.
@@sigmanation6957 jk
I see now I may have not seen your own joke, my bad.
Unless you weren't joking, in which case go fuck yourself x2
"You just broke your beaker" XD
+TheChemistryShack Very good commentary
+TheChemistryShack i know that feeling :(
+Nile Red Can you please tell me where you got your chem set ?
My glassware is from all over. old stuff tha was given to me, stuff i bought online (ebay/aliexpress), etc.
Nile Red Can you please make a list of all your equipment so I could buy it online please?
Could you do a shop tour video ? What equipment, glassware, chemicals, safety equipment you have in stock and what somebody needs to get started etc.
I like how it disintegrates the wood in the match so completely.
"so this is my oxygen generator" bro I want my bong back when your done your science project

No gloves while using liquid nitrogen? TRUE GOD
Harmless unless inside a cup in your hand or anywhere a gas bubble will be prevented underneath it brushing/sliding around skin wont cause damage
It's not like it's gonna freeze your hand straight away. It's a liquid, and due to a temp. difference, there won't be immediate contact of O2 with a skin anyway. I guess... But some nylon gloves or similar for just minimum safety should be applied.
You don't wear gloves when you deal with liquid nitrogen because it's only dangerous if it's in contact with your skin for a long period of time, meaning it's more dangerous to have gloves on where the liquid nitrogen can get stuck.
I rather wear no gloves when using liquid nitrogen because I got more grip.
You can pour it on your head and nothing will happen
Dang, I've never really seen paramagnetism in action! Thank you, NileRed for making Chemistry as visually appealing and wonderful!!!
Very nice videos!

@@chicom3213 What do u mean
Hi
reported and disliked.
Amazing how something so cold can instantaneously turn into something explosively hot. I love chemistry.
You have really come a long way, not to say you weren't good here, but going from a newer video to this the improvement is impressive. Keep it up, you're doing the world a service.
Could you use LOX as bongwater? As long as you manage to do it in some kind of super-insulated bong, I can't think of a reason for it _not_ to work.
Mans asking the question i was too afraid to ask myself. I imagine itd be inCREDibly difficult to do not to mention oxygen poisoning could happen i imagine.
Pulling on a -180° cooled air probably isnt that good for your lungs. I imagine the smoke might react in some way. Either with the oxygen or just by freezing instantly or something.
Im not sure im just guesstimating really. I have some understanding of chemistry but im waaaaaaaay short of giving you a proper answer, as i dont even know it myself. All i do know is that the wellbeing of the person is probably going to be in jeopardy lol
1:04 a really good application is you are able to breath it
The classic experiment using a lit splint involves it being blown out then lowered into the oxygen and then it re-ignites upon contact with the oxygen. PS thank you for your always interesting content
I remember a "magic with chemistry" show when I was young, in which the demonstrator soaked a cigar in liquid O2 and then lit it. It burned like a flare.
In another demo, a wad of foam rubber was stuffed into a metal tube which was closed on one end, then soaked with liquid O2 then ignited. The foam did a mild explosion and burst out of the tube... fun stuff. Unfortunately when the same demo was done a few years later, the tube shattered, sending shards of metal flying. One youngster in the front row of the auditorium was hit in the eye, IIRC. One might speculate that when the metal was supercooled it became brittle, and years of being used for that demo left it cracked and weakened. That particular item was removed from future "magic with chemistry" shows.
When you decomposed Hydrogen Peroxide with the manganese compound, you were essentially using the principle that makes monopropellant thrusters work, as the fuel is passed through a heated catalyst before going into the nozzle and into atmosphere/space.
When yo-ACK!!
0:17 - "...but if we increase pressure enough or lower the temperature enough we can put it back into a liquid" - well, if a substance is above it's critical point you can't "put it back" into a liquid, no matter how much pressure you'll exert. Oxygen at "normal temperature" happens to be way above it's critical point (which is approx. 155 K, or -118,5°C/ -181.5°F @ approx 5 MPa/ 50 atm/ 725 PSI), ditto for nitrogen or argon.
now mix the liquid oxygen with liquid hydrogen to make water, or probably ice at those temps. put the liquid in 3 different water guns, get them to all fire at the same time, where the streams intersect it should start making ice. there is the basic concept for making a freeze gun. probably going to need something higher tech than a dollar store water gun, most likely something pressurized and insulated.
I really love your videos, keep it up!
I like your extremely professinal methods and setups
...and of course the good video quality :)
It would be really great if you could record a video to the synthesis of plastics from phenol or bisphenol A.
It's really interesting for me to see the use of those chemicals you made in previous videos.
+MrHeroPants I was actually looking up a bisphenol A synthesis 2 days ago. I want to do it!
All the things I could do with some glassware and equipment. A ghetto home laboratory will do for now.
"Ghetto home laboratory."
What are you? A "pharmacist?"
How do you guys get a hold of liquid nitrogen so easily? Where do you store it?
I mean, it's not really that difficult to obtain. I've lived in Mexico, the US and Canada and I usually would get my liquid nitrogen from my local Praxair, they had locations available in all 3 countries, I'm guessing they have more locations worldwide though.
literally it's all around you ahaha and you're basically staring through it.
@@RadekZielinski. This clown doesn't know what liquid means

Our chemistry teacher put s length of burning magnesium ribbon into a boiling tube full of gaseous oxygen. There was a sort of "whump!" and the boiling tube broke free of the clamp and shot across the classroom, leaving a trail of magnesium oxide. He got a standing ovation!
What does liquid oxygen tastes like?
Like fresh air, refresh your guts with liquid air!
*LOVE YOUR VIDEOS*
keep 'em coming
And also if possible, could you please make a video on Benzaldehyde synthesis by Étard reaction (Oxidation of Toluene by Chromyl Chloride) ??
Also the purification by Benzaldehyde-bisulfite adduct
It'd be a very interesting as well as informative video I'm sure
Breath the oxygen that comes out directly. I've heard it gives you a jumpstart
Flight movie reference nice. (Starring Denzel Washington)
I once had a beaker that broke while I was heating it...it had H2SO4 :(
Press F to pay respecks
Whats dihydrogen sulfur tetraoxide?? (H2SO4)?
Julien Hatfield sulfuric acid
Michael Merritt well you should pre-heat it so it wont explode to the shock of the changes of the tempreture
Julien Hatfield Not everything is a basic covalent compound.
LOX and petroleum based products can be fun. What’s really fun is the amount of expansion as it turns back to gas. Put a drop on a table and drop a book on that. If done right, small lift off.
I wanna drink the oxygen nile. *BANG* *BANG* *BANG* LET ME DRINK THE OXYGEN NILE.
I feel like you should've added Liquid Hydrogen to it to see the exothermic reaction of rocket fuel. It would be very dangerous tho.
Liquid hy- HYDROGEN? -252°C doesn't sound cool
Wait
It's amazing how our size and scale in the universe allow us to play with the elements, also you're a genious :)
Size and scale? I don't know anything about science. Can you explain that to me?
discovered your channel today, already loving it! Did you have any formal chemistry education or are you a self-learning hobbyist?
“It looks complicated but it’s simple”
Me “ok mumbo jumbo”
the glassware broke because of the sharp temp CHANGE, not just because of how hot it was. you can crack/break glass by freezing it then running it under hot tap water, its the same thing.
My favorite "application" for LOX is pouring it on charcoal grills. XD
No kerosene or lighter necessary........
It keeps on astonishing me how much great content there is on this channel!
This is one of the coolest things I have ever seen! Great work!
so a very very cold liquid that helps to ignite things
bringing the phrase "freeze burn" to another level
I wonder if this would also work the same as oxygen gas when it comes to breathing and blood oxidation and all.
Although it's probably a bad idea to randomly drink it or inhale it to find out.
Next video :
"Smoking liquid oxygen"
The by far best excursion I ever did while in school was in a "deep temp laboratory" - first the guy let us play around with liquid nitrogen (we froze and smashed a lot of stuff^^) and at the end he got either liquid air or liquid oxygen (i think it was the first, but since its liquid the oxygen density is way better if i remember right) and then he lit a cigar on fire and droped it into the beaker (we weren't allowed to look directly at it) but the cigar was gone in like 0.1 sec and it pretty much looked like a flash bang :D - parts of the beaker melted
Yes don't breathe and only have 10 percent oxygen I to die for
Maybe I need to start drinking oxygen to get that sweet energy
I'm not sure if your body can handle -183 celcius. Better breathe it instead
FurkanSE maybe I want to die
@@lizzieandmocha1131 If dying will make you happy, then don't hesitate to commit toaster bath! After all, happiness is the only thing that matters.
FurkanSE I was just joking with you, man, but I'm glad you consider my happiness!
@@lizzieandmocha1131 Most people on the internet say they want to die but they don't consider the very good sides of life. Without suffering happiness has no meaning.
Refreshing! Go outside and go buy some liquid oxygen for a drink.
So when purifying oxygen and nitrogen on an industrial scale is the paramagnetic oxygen extracted magnetically from a liquified air while diamagnetic nitrogen is left behind or is it more sensical to just condense oxygen by keeping the condenser to a specific temperature?
Used to store and transfer LOX when I was in the Air Force. Always thought the color was cool. Though I accidentally got splashed on the gloves I was wearing (small drop), and I never felt myself get so cold so fast lol
what happens if you drink it...
Organic matter oxidizes immediately upon contact with LOx, bringing with it the possibility of detonations.
+AFriendlyMathematician I'll take my chances
you will get really hyper because no4 gives you energy, like tho7.
+AFriendlyMathematician No, you still need an ignition source. You will not ignite if you try to drink liquid oxygen
+DANG JOS OH REALLY
Why does liquid oxygen looks like a tasty drink? xD
Elon Wong the forbidden breath
ahh yes a supercooled glass of pale blue liquid oxygen
Shouldn't it be easier to produce oxygen by the electrolysis of water?
+Nitro That process is typically a lot slower than using Hydrogen Peroxide.

What would happen if you inhaled liquid oxygen?
It's poisonous in High concentrations so I guess it won't be healthy
The pH of your blood would rise. Its dangerous so i wouldnt try it
ı love your videos mann !❤❤❤❤
+İlteriş cansız Thanks!!
You really should use gloves! Cool video though.
Gloves may actually make things worse when working with extremely cold liquids like these. They can reduce the Leidenfrost effect and reduce the time before frostbite occurs…
Alexander Thomas Correct, since only prolonged contact with cryogenic liquids is an issue. If you stick your hand into a dewar of LN2, your hand would freeze. But you can pour it over your hand without issue.
I worked with liquid N2O in the lab and came up with two things. Dip the test tube into ethanol to prevent it from freezing over and prechill using liquid nitrogen to reduce loss when you transfer the liquid gas to the test tube
Scientists : mmhm very interesting, I should try this
My brain for no reason : delicious
Man you're a better chemist than I could ever be, but it seems like most of your mistakes are because you're impatient. I've watched dozens of your videos and I love your content but it seems like 90% of your errors are because you get impatient. Im honestly not criticizing because I'm the same but I know sometimes it's important to hear feedback. Keep making videos you're the best chemist on youtube
It's such a pet peeve of mine when people give critique and say "honestly not critiquing" as if critique is some kind of cruel and evil thing. You have critiqued him for being impatient but you haven't gone the extra step to make it actually helpful. Why even bother?
Can You make liquid CO2?
that is harder because it needs pressure and a whole different setup. Maybe ill do that eventually though. I could do a liquid CO2 extraction of caffeine or something
+Nile Red Ok,tnk.
grant thompson did that nile
Ben Krasnow, on his channel "Applied Science".. builds a see-through pressurized CO2 canister made of acrylic (really thick acrylic). He used a heating element, and you could watch the CO2 going between phases.. really neat. Its worth a look. While you are there check out the garage made electron microscope.
you can, infact dry ice is solid CO2.
What would happen if you drank it?
Crappy Nappy hmm idk id imagine it wouldn't be very fun drinking something thats -183°C
I'd rather avoid that. Eating anything around -183°C would give you a 1 way ticket to the infirmary.. Possibly to a hole in the ground too..
It will digest linings of your digestive tract in pure form even at room temperature..
It'd likely evaporate before it hits your tongue, or leidenfrost right off, just like liquid nitrogen
freeze, then much big boom.
just to be clear: you cannot liquify O2 or some other gases just by applying pressure if the T is above the critical temp. pressure alone is not enough,
Technically water is liquid oxygen. This video shows actual pure oxygen on it own obviously. These videos are so interesting it makes me wanna learn about chemistry
can you pour it on your nose
Im gonna go with no, ha
NileRed xD
JezDex144 you might actually be able to because you can do that with liquid nitrogen because it evaporates so quickly
SexyBeast 64 oo
SexyBeast 64 Liquid Oxygen oxides any Organic Material, in less words, it would freeze, burn, and explode.

Guy: plays with liquid oxygen
Frostbite: *i am joke to you?*
I kept freaking out when he took his gloves off while still working with the lab equipment.
Hold up, Oxygen has already crossed Critical Temperature at -118.6 degrees Celsius. Cannot be liquified by just increasing pressure alone at room temperature. Increasing pressure above 50.5 bar it will go into a super critical state where gas and liquid phases are indistinguishable. Cooling is the more practical way to liquify it.
This takes getting fresh air to a whole ‘nother level.

I love chemistry and you are the one who is teaching me chemistry while i am learning biochemistry right now
all you had to do was leave liquid nitrogen in Styrofoam cups for about 30 minutes to an hour. this will condense the oxygen in the air, producing much more than you produced. if you fill about 8 styrofoam cups with liquid nitrogen then you should get enough liquid oxygen to fill up 1 styrofoam cup.
Challenge! - Work with a xenon compound. (Believe it or not you can order these from your friendly reagent salesman in small quantities.)
Better than my science teacher that explains a lot of unimportant information
It's interesting how something so vital to our ability to be alive is so dangerous and cool
Watching this was like a breath of fresh air!
Liquid nitrogen is fun stuff. My dad worked in the semiconductor industry. So sometimes he would being a thermos of liquid nitrogen home for us to play with.

*make something complicated*
this looks like complicated but actually is quite simple
Liquid gasses with bare hands... good way to be hospitalized
Above the critical temperature, oxygen (and other materials) will not become true liquids no matter how much pressure you put on them, although above the critical temperature the supercritical fluid can be more or less liquid-like depending upon the pressure (however, the transition as pressure will be smooth, with no discrete condensation).
Fun fact, mixing LOX with a hydrocarbon (fuels) including gasoline, diesel, and other petroleum products won't immediately do anything, but a strong impact can cause and explosion
You could just leave some liquid nitrogen into a cup and then it will condense the oxygen from the air and leave you but you are the pro here
