    Very satisfying to see such beautiful needle-like crystals form after the recrystallization. Quality over quantity sure pays off with such a cheap chemical. Keep posting videos!

    So I'll just assume the answer to my question about you being back for real is "yes". Great to see you back! :) You have an awesome lab.

    Outstanding video, with no nonsense commentary. I love the little side notes, e.g. about the scum on top of the mixture. Subscribed :)

    Please do a video on equipment and techniques. I'm a layman and enjoy watching your videos but a lot of it is over my head. I was trying to figure out how your vacuum filtration works with the water. It would be interesting if you described the equipment and glassware you have and use.

    Hi, I love your video. Is it possible to perform recrystallization with a mix of pure benzoic acid and barium chloride (both powders)?

    • @Prchemist06
      @Prchemist06 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      No cuz both are very low soluble in water so it is very difficult to dissolve them
      If you want to make barium benzoate then, add barium carbonate to benzoic acid solution

      +MrCrazyChemist It's just a water aspirator. I bought it from Carolina Biological. I just routed the lab plumbing so it could be permanently installed.

  • @joshsellers5724

    Try dissolving that benzoic acid in acetone then hit it with the ketene lamp. Is it possible to create a mixed anhydride like that? What would that even make?

  • @ashleymarney7355

  • @localbroadcast
    @localbroadcast 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    how do you clean your frit? i tried a bunch of solvents on mine when it got contamned in a bromine extraction... nothing would get the red / brown out of it until i doused it with sulfuric acid followed by conc. h2o2. and then i threw some naOH in and left the room for a few hours while it ... reacted. that finally got it a really brilliant white again, but i hope it did not damage the frit in the process. I'd love to hear how it's supposd to be done.

    • @localbroadcast
      @localbroadcast 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      well, I did not have any thiosulfate on hand and the local grocery store was out of it at the time! jk, dont even kno what that is. I did try the usual suspects... acetone, alcohols, toluene, naptha, xylene, acetic acid..

    Nice video, is it possible to do the same with potassium sorbate to form SORBIC ACID?

    • @chickenspaceprogram
      @chickenspaceprogram ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Probably, since potassium sorbate is far more soluble than sorbic acid. There would be a small loss, as sorbic acid is soluble at ~1.5 g/100ml @20C. What do you need sorbic acid for?

    • @stempelmarkttiel
      @stempelmarkttiel ปีที่แล้ว

      It is for use as a preservative in an Acidic cosmetic product and potassium sorbate is way cheaper than sorbic acid

  • @gamerv08
    @gamerv08 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where did the potassium chloride come from? I could understand you saying KCl if you were using potassium benzoate but you're using sodium benzoate.

    • @ArabGamesGeeks
      @ArabGamesGeeks 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +gamerv08 he explained how the chemistry work like he is going to use sodium benzoate but he actually used potassium benzoate you can hear him say that at 2:54

    In which solvent can you do a recrystallisation of copper carbonate ?

    • @shivambhatt2724
      @shivambhatt2724 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Zock4 Copper carbonate is almost insoluble in all solvents (it can dissolve in acids, but it'll decompose, of course)
      so to purify it, just add in dilute hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. it'll foam up and release carbon dioxide.
      add the acid until solution is clear and bubbling stops.
      Filter the resulting blue/greenish blue solution
      Add excessive amount of sodium carbonate solution to it.
      it will again precipitate faint green copper carbonate
      filter the precipitate and dry it
      there ya go, now you have a quite pure copper carbonate from crude/impure copper carbonate

  • @jaredgarden2455
    @jaredgarden2455 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Could you reduce bezoic acid to toluene, also could activated zinc dust successfully reduce benzoic acid to benzaldehyde?

    • @jaredgarden2455
      @jaredgarden2455 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +jared garden Ok turns out you could just reflux the benzoic acid in ether with LAH to benzyl alcohol then i suppose reduce the alcohol using activated zinc dust, but im still wondering if zinc could reduce a carboxylic acid to an aldehyde?

    • @mmmhorsesteaks
      @mmmhorsesteaks 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +jared garden no. You could go to the chloride (from the alcohol) and reduce that with zinc. With a caroxylic acid, you would just get the zinc carboxylate salt.

    • @angeliawelch9438
      @angeliawelch9438 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +jared garden you can get toluene at a hardware store you have to order benzoic acid why would you want to buy something online wait for it to come then spend money turning it into something you could have just bought and distilled.

    • @jaredgarden2455
      @jaredgarden2455 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Angelia Welch Because then you actually get to perform an experiment and observe as your compound slowly changes into another compound, its the journey not the destination. not to mention what if one day the hardware store blows up or shuts down or toluene is taken out of hardware store paint thinner or if like the apocalypse happens and for some reason you want some toluene to recrystallize the sulfur that you dug up over in Rotarua to mix with some charcoal and that sodium nitrate that you managed to extract from that pile of fermenting straw you've been pissing on for the last 6 months to make gun powder which you can use in your makeshift pipe gun to finally kill those cannibals who have been trying to catch you and eat your legs for the past couple weeks.
