    It's *so depressing* that (1) you have to crush people's expectations, (2) they don't pay attention, and (3) still want to know where you got the chlorauric acid.

      3rd have answer in 2nd statement.. in the start of video: here is solidified Chloroauric acid which we produced in previous video, which contains 1,5g gold. Interesting why some still want to know where you got the
      Chloroauric acid when they don't pay attention?.. That's depressing :D

      Yeah...I was thinking it's sad that you have to actually give that disclaimer, you'd think there wouldn't be anyone left today that actually believes in alchemy. But then there are flat earthers so you never know. You'd THINK it'd be obvious that chloroauric acid contains gold, because it's right there in the name. It's HAuCl4 (Au coming from aurum which is Latin for gold).

    I really like these videos. I like that you put the chemical reactions that take place on the screen so I can see what is happening. It has been a few years since I had chemistry and I have an idea what is happening but seeing the written reaction really helps to understand. Science is just so cool; we can do/learn many things with science!!!

      Yes because , gold is a soft metal. Very small particles of it which one cannot see through the eyes get dissolved in liquids. But there is no loss of it in high quantity but some there is some gold loss.

      @TheChemistryShack 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The SO2 would react with the water to make H2SO3, which would probably go on to react with the Na2CO3 to make sodium sulfite (Na2SO3).
      The full equations being:
      SO2 + H2O = H2SO3
      H2SO3 + Na2CO3 = NaSO3 + CO2 + H2O
      I am not sure about that, but it seems very plausible.

      TERRMINE Something that you can use to smash together atoms at high speeds to fuse nuclei and create new atoms. Using this, you could create gold atoms from any random atoms. I know of one that can create 2 million gold atoms per second, but while that may seem like a lot, it is really not that much. For example, if you left it on for 50 million years, you would only get about 1 gram of gold.

    I could see a gold 'heist' movie where they take the gold and convert it into chloroauric acid - and transport the gold out through the drain, I'm not chemist though, I'll wager chloroauric acid would eat through the pipes heh heh. Still could serve for a real neat screen play. This REALLY changed how I look at elements. I love these videos. Just amazes me we can model what happens at atomic level so well. Of course though when Seaborg created gold out of bismuth, that really changed how I saw elements as not 'fixed'. Same with that radon experiment where alpha particles turned radon into - if I recall- nitrogen and oxygen atoms - whichever it helped me see atoms as not 'fixed' but changeable.

    You can transform atoms of other elements into the one you want. Gold can in fact be made from other metals, but you do need very strong nuclear energy to do so. Of course this is not cost effective at all and if it was companies would be producing synthetic gold.

      *****
      just like synthetic gems, synthetic gold would cost less. And would probably drive the price of gold way down. causing silver to explode in value.
      and at that point the governments would start taxing metals (silver, palladium platinum) and restricting/banning ownership of silver, palladium and platinum.

    • @dkessler5
      @dkessler5 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ***** I kind of have to agree with Joe on this one. I don't know whether it would cause all the things he described after the the first statement, but companies have synthesised diamonds chemically in order to make tools that would cut through almost anything. The diamonds that are created cost the company less than buying genuine diamonds. Also, jewellers said that the way the synthesised diamond shined (or whatever) was different from natural genuine diamonds. Anyway, Joe's first statement: correct, second and third statement: maybe?, last statement: absolutely not, what the hell is he talking about?

    why would you add the sodium metabisulfate one drop at a time?

    Do you think you would get a larger yield from electroplating or doing the same reaction you did under reflux conditions?

    I need help. Do I use a hot plate to refine the gold choloride by inserting the sodium metabisulphite into to make the gold powder? please contact me.

    Just a question but about how much is 1.5g of gold worth? and how much of the mass is lost during heating it?

  • @dogsolidger
    @dogsolidger 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    so is this cheaper to do or should we just buy bars?

  • @TheSambond007
    @TheSambond007 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    How much gold did you loose from the orignal 1.5g? ie- how much did you have at the end

    I never said it was absolutely impossible. I said it was *chemically* impossible. The process you are describing is not chemical, it's nuclear.

    And can you use potassium metabisulfite instead sodium metabisulfite?

    Is there any gold atoms lost in the process? (Enough to change the weight in .0 of grams?)

  • @chunkybiscuitnoodles8502

    What would happen if instead of adding the sodium metabisulfite drop by drop you just dumped it all in at once?

    • @MrTheMrhappy
      @MrTheMrhappy 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The reaction is probably very exothermic and the aurochloric acid could evaporate if ot gets too hot

      @RedInferno112 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not unless you are a stockbroker, no. You'd only get the money for extracting the gold in net profit, not the value of the gold.

  • @Qu33nzF1n3zt

    So hypothetically speaking. If I multiplied these numbers following alongside the same ratios, I'd be able to produce much more gold?

    Solidified Cholorauric acid has a very nice orange hue. Can it be/is it used in dyes/paints etc.?

    • @NurdRage
      @NurdRage  8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Because of its excessive cost (it does after all contain actual gold) it is not used in any form of dye or pigment. In addition, its not stable when used with the solvents and carriers that most dyes and paints use, so even if gold was as common as iron we likely still wouldn't use it as a pigment.
