    *I propose to make a metal-air battery in the next video, the essence of which is to dissolve metal in order to generate electricity. It is necessary to place in an alkali solution (usually sodium, we also call it “mole”), the sheet of aluminium foil up as the first electrode of the battery, and graphite in the second, the latter must be gas-permeable, for this you need to glue activated carbon to a stainless steel mesh with glue. The finished battery provides approximately 0.8-1 volt voltage per cell and a current of up to 25 mA per square centimeter of electrode; the capacity of such batteries can exceed the capacity of lithium-ion samples by 2-3 times. P.S. I hope I win a printer, although I have never won anything in such competitions..* Tomatoes are disgusting!

      This,, holding a syringe of the stuff when you "know" it's going to go boom right next to it,,, very very Not recommended.
      However,, it doesn't seem to be as volatile as the myths suggests, I have a bottle of the stuff in my pocket at all times, for the heart, and it's diluted with ethanol, and that seems to make it safe from going to the moon.
      So i wonder,, is it only the temperature that makes it go boom?
      Hitting it with a hammer probably produces a high localized temperature where it's compressed, and what others say about micro bubbles in the comments. so would it be less go-boom'y if it's cold?

      @@lordsqueak The medicine contains only a few milligrams of NG, dilution makes it insensitive (no chain reaction, molecules too far apart). mixing with sorbent is a classic way to make dynamite. As far as I understand, sensitivity is determined by the fact that we need to transfer energy to several molecules (heating or mechanically) - sufficient for them to disintegrate, and then a chain reaction occurs (decomposition releases more energy sufficient to maintain the reaction, the speed of the reaction will make up the difference between detonation and deflagmation). In theory, the frozen substance is less sensitive (you need more energy to kick start reaction), but there are more convenient ways to desensitize stuff.

    Most of the reason for the additional sulfuric acid is the fact that nitrating glycerin is hard.
    Nitroglycerin, to be more specific; trinitroglycerin needs to have 3 NO3 bonds at the 3 arms of the glycerin. Adding 2 acids together creates a mixed acid.
    Like how you cannot dissolve gold with any acid at all but a mixture of sulfuric and hydrochloride acid will create a solution of mixed acid that helps each other forming a redox reaction.

    Hey integza, as a chemist, please dont put explosives in dangerous containers, i would reccomend a plastic syringe next time, or a very weak dropper. Explosives danger increases with their containers strength and fragmentation possibility. As for the video idea, as you are venturing into explosives, maybe you can try to make some interesting solid fuel rocket propellants? With different ratios of additives or primary oxidizers and fuel, maybe even a nitroglycerin rocket, where it is dissolved in a flammable liquid, with a stabiliser and a slower burning oxidiser. Would be dope!

    • @JinKee

      Did you ever have any potassium permanganate in your first aid kit next to the glycerine?
      If you have some spare time make a little pile of KMnO4 crystals on a large fireproof metal or ceramic surface and put a single drop of glycerine on top as fuel. It will spontaneously ignite in about 15 minutes (depending on local conditions).
      Starting a fire in a first aid kit used to be a popular form of arson because it looked like sloppy storage of the kit, until fire investigators got wise to it.

    Nitroglycerin works really well for miniature ball-bearing cannon. I made one when I was 15 and I was able to launch ball-bearings across a football field. It was hugely entertaining to play games experimenting with angles and accuracy. Simple get a narrow metal tube. Cap one end of the tube. Soak a cotton ball in cold nitroglycerin. Gently insert the cotton ball into the open end of the tube pushing the ball-bearing in after the cotton ball. Once they are at the end of the tube snuggly against the capped end of the tube all you have to do is aim it then smack the cap with a hammer. I made an aiming mount and a spring loaded hammer in case anything went wrong. Always wear ear protection and have a blast feeling like a cannon wizard.

    Fun fact: nitroglycerin's impact sensitivity is due to very small micro-bubbles in the liquid that collapse and heat up above the detonation temperature when you hit it.

    I remember finding the basic procedure for making nitroglycerin in an old Encyclopedia as a kid; which shows how old I am. It was something I always wanted to play with just to see how powerful it really is; you just satisfied a 30 year old curiosity. Pretty sure this is exactly what I would do with it if I had some. I love how it looks like its cleaning the vice by blowing away all the dirt and oxides. For real fun, I recall in chemistry class our teacher once put nitroglycerin on the board, wrote down the decomposition products, said "it started as 1 molecule of liquid, now its 6 molecules of gas, what is the pressure change in a fixed volume? (a lot, the answer is a lot)

So basically you can just get on, engage the clutch, ride off, and the bike will never fall over. YES, I know that's highly inefficient, but since when are we efficient?

      Anfo is unique in that its explosive force is actually dependent on the strength of the charge used at initiation. Anfo, on its own is incredibly hard (nearly impossible) to set off without an initiating primer. (Hence why it's categorized as non cap sensitive)
      Also, you could use just straight nitroglycerin in a mine setting, and achieve the same results as Anfo, but Anfo is a fraction of the price, that's why we use it.

    0:08 the sulphoric acid activates the nitric acid making it nitronium ion.
    H2SO4 + HNO3 HSO4 - + H2NO3+
    H2NO3+ H2O + NO2+
    This nitronium ion is highly reactive and reactes with gylcerine making it the product we all love and care.

    You should keep the sulfuric acid in the ice bath as you add the nitric acid (slowly) to keep the solution cool, as the sulfuric acid gets hot as it dehydrates the water in the nitric acid. Most chemists that make nitration solutions will refrigerate their acids the night before they make their nitration solution so they start with the coolest temps possible.

    The drop that explodes seems to already be on the hot plate and has been heating up for a bit.
    But, I was hoping to see what would happen if you took a small vial and started shaking it (not by hand obviously) or what would happen if a bottle of it fell.
    Movies always exaggerate someone walking with it very gently, because any bit of shaking makes it go boom!

Literally anything that’s plasma and or high voltage related. i.e. plasma channel’s recent plasma knife, but more emphasis on the novelty (the new and hasn’t been considered before) angle. As well as skill in engineering, sturdiness, and visual appeal. And the viewers can vote the winner in the comments.

    it's actually "precipitate", which means "to fall". As in "precipice" (in Portoguese "precipicio"), a steep or overhanging cliff. Can also mean to put something suddenly in motion, as in precipitating a chain of events.

    If I had to guess what's going on chemically, the glycerin when mixed with the nitrogen bath takes on both sulfur and nitrogen, both of which are fairly reactive, and glycérine works as an oxidizing catalyst, so when sulfurs reaction is sped up by the nitrogen and the Oxygen, big boom, small time

    A Nitroglycerine powered, Orion type rocket, which uses a high temperature electric arc to detonate sequential drops of Nitroglycerine beneath a dome-shaped metal plate. This causes a cycle of shaped explosions, propelling the metal plate & its payload in the opposite direction at a great velocity.

    I remember when I was in high school, one evening, there was a distant boom. Long before the internet, it took a couple of days for the story to show up in the newspaper. Turns out, there was a commercial dynamite manufacturer about 35 miles away - they had a large reactor to make the nitroglycerin which is the basis for dynamite, and the story was, one afternoon they “lost control” of the reaction, and the temperature started rising. This was slow enough they had time to sound the alarm and have everyone evacuate, and eventually, the mixture passed the critical temperature, and let go.
