    That reminds me of a poem-
    "A little green chemist, on a very green day
    mixed some little green chemicals
    in a very green little way.
    The little green grasses now gently wave
    over the little green chemist's little green grave."
    ***********************************************************************
    Thank you all for your likes of this post, I thought I would share the poem of an ill-fated chemist, who kind of reminded me of NileRed. I FIRST heard this back in my very young days when I was about 6 or so, waaaayyyy back in 1967 or thereabouts.
    While doing an EXHAUSTIVE search, I found it also in a news clipping from an OLD newspaper, The Taj Times, back in January 18, 1961!
    Apparently, this was in a collection in
    "Book Of Funny Poems Paperback - January 1, 1961 by Eleanor Clymer"
    Eleanor Klymer was a prolific writer of children's books, having written 58 of them. She left us in March 31, 2001, at the age of 95.

      @@__8120 I agree. For example the jump scare in episode 8 of The haunting of hill house. Has an extremelly effective "jump scare" (loud suprising noise) that is earnt. But when you look at where jump scares come from. E.g Psychos ending wich half the film built upto had 0 noise and scared the daylights out of people from all accounts if heard from people at the time. then out of nowhere you have a loud yell (in film) and a fast moving "object" to not spoil. That then gives another even more frightening moment. Neither of these by any means are a cheap gimmick. And extremelly well done.

    So you all know, the reason Caesium is so dangerous is because it is extremely pyrophoric, meaning that if it comes into contact with air, it will spontaneously combust. Dropping it won't be hugely dangerous but an active (and quite large) fire in a lab can be a problem, especially considering inhaling caesium vapors can be as dangerous as inhaling spray paint vapors. It's essentially sending little particles of metal into your lungs where they can puncture, rip, and tear their way through, making breathing extremely difficult, internal bleeding likely, and death quite imminent. That's also why it's so expensive.

    you know, there was an accident here in Brazil in the city of Goiânia, where two recyclable material collectors (don’t know how you call them in english, hope it’s right), got in an abandoned radiotherapy institute, found a radiotherapy machine, and decided to sell its pieces. one of the sold pieces had cesium-137 (an isotope of cesium) in it, and when exposed, caused what’s today considered the largest radiological accident outside of a nuclear plant in the world. about 110 thousand people had to be examined, and 4 died from the radioactivity

      A good word for what you called "recyclable metal collectors" would probably be "recyclable metal scavengers" instead, as while "collectors" implies that the people are keeping (not selling) the items, "scavengers" implies something closer to "gathering of abandoned items" and carries no such implication that the items are for keeping.

The player is known for showering with his medals on, so when the water hits the medal, the coating dissolves, and the medal explodes and kills him. Really cool to see that would actually work!

      It's actually the water in the air that it can react with, not the oxygen or nitrogen itself. Dropping it into water is how you get it all to react at once. That's probably not the only thing it can react with though, just the one I'm familiar with.
      That said, that wouldn't really be enough cesium to cause significant property damage, but as others have noted, the fumes WOULD be a concern.

    Fun fact about caesium, although its way way waaaay more reactive than potasium and sodium, its a lot less explosive.
    Caesium tends to just immediately set on fire if you look at it funny, potassium tends to detonate in a very exciting explosion, but generally requires water.
    Look up videos comparing caesium to the other reactive metals, very insightful.

    • @jackaw1197
      @jackaw1197 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Probably partly due to it's molar mass. Per atom/mol it releases more energy, but since each atom/mol weighs more than 3x as much as a potassium one, the mass energy density is lower despite the higher molar energy density.

One time, one spills a bottle of hexane and starts cleaning it up with paper towels, another says they have a way of quickly cleaning it up and tosses a match at the spill. First guy shoves the mess in the sink in the middle and it all goes up. The teacher was just chilling at his desk watching the fire.

    Back in 2018 I was visiting a company called Albermarle. They are the largest producer of lithium reagents, but they also produce fine chemicals like - caesium.
    I was a university student visiting with a working group and part of the tour was a schooling season for the new company trainees called 'learning by burning'.
    They threw litres of different lithium reagents on the floor and things like that. Last part was an ampule of caesium which they dropped.
    Quite honestly, it was disappointing - as soon as the glass cracked, the caesium immediately hydrolyzed and was gone, no flame, no explosion.
