Nitric acid by ostwald oxidation part 1
We tried to oxidize anydrous ammonia we made in the last video to nitrate. So far we had some success, but we need to adjust a few parameters to optimize the process, so a part 2 will follow.
Here is the video where we made the ammonia: th-cam.com/video/Jk6H4oEHZZg/w-d-xo.html

    You may know that high end guitar amps and other, FAR more, high-end music studio gear requires tubes. A lot of the old better made stock is running out in the world. I could see special tube-making becoming a revitalized skill in developed countries around the world as the need for tubes increases in this very small but important market. That's why I'm here learning this!

    It is not so easy!. In fact the highschool chemistry book says that H202+H2SO3->H2SO4+H2O and it does not recommend that method. The book explains its production at industrial level by getting SO3 and adding it to water. I do not know if SO3 is a gas but it must be a gas and adding it to water is not so easy. Nice video.

    • @thesciencefurry
      @thesciencefurry 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It is in fact not that efficient, SO3 is a gas and it's solubility increases in sulfuric acid I believe. For making it at home without more sophisticated methods this is okayish, because you need to oxidize this SO2 to SO3 somehow. You could oxidize the SO2 on a catalyst, but that's a little bit more complicated. But I might try this aswell someday.

      @@thesciencefurry thank You for your comment. Now I understood why the book uses h2so4 to obtain more h2so4....the so3 is more soluble in h2so4 and it produces h2S207 which should be a liquid and it produces more h2so4 by adding water to it. The problem with the synthesis of h2so4 is the solubility of a gas a in a liquid. 👍

    Something that'd be interesting would be using your device and make *many* ,lots and lots of them. Then, create an array of them in a given space/ room.... Or on material as a blanket you could wrap around yourself or throw overtop an object/ cover up something. It would be an interesting experiment- would we be able to visualize the many signals around us? To be able to visually observe signals travelling from point a to be or spread out thorough the space...some thoughts to add...a trailing signal should be incorporated...think shooting star. Since they are travelling at speeds we'd only observe as flashes or bursts...adding a 2..3...5...seconds that it would be visible....then fading away. A different way to display such information- the light turning on with presence of signal- utilizing fiber wire. The visual light aspect of the system can be "projected " in another area...example: you placed an array of these sensors in a room the shape of a square.. the fiber wires from each go to the same position on a smaller cube that is possibly displayed hanging from above. This is similar....the fiber wire part... that Rolse Royce uses to re create the stars above you in the night's sky onto the headliner of their vehicles. Take away the light, exchange it for a data logger...input the data into some kind of 3d visualization software. Or a 3d spectrogram.. actually, i had seen a youtube video where someone did just this but with WIFI signals only...was really interesting to see the WIFI fog around them

    If you are wanting to do this reaction on a hobby level but cannot find a suitable catalyst, you can use a section of brick 1 out of an automobile catalytic converter. The catalyst is coated with platinum 90% rhodium 10% which is fairly close to the screens used for making the nitrogen oxides on an industrial scale. They are 20% rhodium. If you want more nitrogen oxides then use pure oxygen and a low concentration of the ammonia vapors.❤

    Loved your video. I have a suggestion you might consider. Coat the reaction vessel with sodium silicate and place some nichrome wire into it. After dried, add another layer of sodium silicate and allow to dry again. Once dried you can use your bench power supply to regulate and maintain a constant temperature. I look forward to your feedback. Cheers

    My idea was to electrically coat etched graphite with platinum instead of the mirroring solution (as that is not as easily available) makes the deposition much more controlled, and also faster i think? Could even use carbon fiber for it. Also i think i heard platinum-palladium is even better than just platinum. As opposed to rhodium which supposedly supports nitrogen formation.

    You said in your comment that the contact time is already too long, so i think to lower the amount of ammonium nitrate byproduct produced, you should reduce how much ammonia flows through the system and increase the flow of air, creating a more oxygen rich environment. Its just a suggestion, i don't know if it will actually work, but maybe you wanna try.

      This could be an option but it's suboptimal. The catalyst temperature is mainly influenced by the exothermic reaction itself. I would argue, if the catalyst is not maintaining it's optimal temperature, heating it is just treating the symptom of bad reaction conditions(like flow rate and composition of the incoming gas or maybe even the geometry of the catalyst)
