- Liquid Gallium metal Vs Aluminium or Aluminum. Watch what happens if you put Gallium onto aluminium. I had to sand down the surface of the can to get it to work. The drinks can seems to absorb some of the gallium, and change the structure of the can. It becomes soft and very weak.

Update: it’s week 3 in the hospital
There was a thin layer of aluminum oxyde, which is the reaction product between air and aluminium. That's why it didn't work until you used sandpaper
Fun fact: thin plastic
I thought it was some kind of acrylic coating to prevent the can from oxidizing. If you've ever found like a really old can in the woods it'll crush into dust like that from oxidizing long enough.
@Jared Flynn No it's really aluminum oxide. Though some cans do have a plastic coating, but thats on the inside.
@@jaredflynn3750 reduced alluminium is useless
@@romanpul aluminum oxide is what happens when aluminum oxidizes
The most amazing aspect to me is that the entire top was affected, not just the aluminum _under_ the pool of gallium, which points to extreme efficiency in gallium wicking between the grain boundaries, wicking laterally many-many times the thickness of the aluminum.
Might be a good plot for a spy thriller, as a means of disabling an aircraft on a long flight

No, people are disliking this because he's been milking the gallium craze for nearly a year. How far davehax has fallen.
Yeah it's always best to scratch the oxide layer off the aluminum it helps the gallium penetrate into the aluminum to start the amalgamation process
Cool
does it not look like aluminum foil
@@packsmc3261 It’s aluminum 😐
@@anakinskinwalker1724he said aluminum 🤓
Average nile red viewer
If you cut aluminum into small pieces and dissolve them into liquid Gallium. You need to put the combination to an alkaline solution so the oxidation on the aluminum will dissolve into the alkaline solution and then alloy with gallium. Once done you can put the alloy blob into water.
It will spin and move around water without any external energy. This is because the aluminum in the mixture reacts with water to form aluminum Hydroxide thus propelling the blob.
You can imagine the application for such a reaction.
This was discovered by a Chinese team of scientists.
Subs? Just an ignorant guess. I have no knowledge here, but I'd imagine pressure at depth and the salt would affect it.
Maybe rocket ships...

XD
@@user-ye6je1dk8x it's in the desc of the video
The reason why only the top of the can was affected is because the top and the body of the can are made from two separate aluminium pieces which are pressed together to form a seal. The way that Gallium works is it first penetrates into the crystalline structure of aluminium and then works its way through it. Because there are 2 separate pieces, most likely separated by the same thin aluminium oxide layer that you had to scratch off initially, the Gallium never managed to transition into the body of the can.
It's pronounced "Aluminum"
I really liked your scientific approach to your experiment. Great video!
Aluminium has a natural oxidation layer that protects it from corrosion. That is why you do not see aluminium "rust" like iron or steel does, or in fact, the "rust" protects the metal.
Nicholas Lau Yeah in the exception of iron the oxide of al stick filmly to the surface rather than flakes away as the oxide of iron(rust)... Thus protecting it.
Your user photo makes the comment a lot better
Yep. Some metals have that property, where their oxides remain attached to the pure metal.
Aluminium doesn’t contain iron and isn’t an alloy so it can’t anyway.
its called Passivation
How to get that last drop of coke
and cancer too :)
Sleep Chaser **line**
For the African kids.
So true
bitch wtf
Coca-Cola cans have a thin layer of epoxy on top of the aluminium, just a few microns thick. The epoxy is there to protect the can from corrosion.
not only that, but alluminium naturally creates and oxyde layer around that doesnt react
Well aluminium itself has a coating layer which forms naturally
I appreciate the fact, that you figured out the error and experimented once again, rather than coming to conclusion that gallium doesn't affect aluminum. You just earned a 👍🏻

@@markfox1545 My friend, both 'aluminum' and 'aluminium' are correct :)
C0rrect@@Shraddhapatra178
There's not necessarily any coating, aluminum gets converted to aluminum oxide rather quickly when exposed to air, which does not react with gallium. You did the right thing scratching it off, you'd do that any time you want to react with straight Al
But usually there is a thin coating to protect the liquid wich is sprayed on the in and outside
Wut?!

Dr: any idea how you got hand cancer?
Guy: nope

Wtf are you talking? xd
It's not going to give you cancer
Aluminum oxidizes quickly in air, forming a strong surface layer of aluminum oxide that prevents the rest of the aluminum from reacting. The sandpaper scratched off this protective layer of aluminum oxide, allowing the aluminum to react with the gallium.
The molecular structures of metals act like a sea of atoms. When you combine a sea of aluminum atoms with a sea of gallium atoms, they mix (like pouring a cup of blue water into red water) and form an alloy. A Gallium-Aluminum also is very weak, so that’s why he was able to poke through the can. But, you can do this with most pure metals and get different alloys of varying strengths.
Dream Escapes
Good explanation.
If both were liquid then your explanation would be clear but why does it happen even *when one metal is solid* ? I mean solid metal seems to resist penetration by all kinds of everyday liquids and even pressurized gases quite easily. Why is liquid metal is mixing its way inside so easily while other liquid/gaseous substances have so much trouble?
I was screaming this at my screen when he was wondering why it wasn't working at first lol
Just to add a bit more information...
Usually when you have to weld Aluminium you need to have a machine with pulsed current, in which the current is pulsed. You need to have this because to have a good weld you need to "break" the aluminium oxide layer first, but aluminium oxide has a higher melting point (2070ºC~2343K) than aluminium (660ºC~933K), therefore, the high peak of current basically breaks the oxide and let's the fused material (generated by the lower peak) to adhere to the base material, creating a bead.
I'm not sure tho if it's only Al2O3 on the surface of the cans... I think they have another type of coat ;) But I can't remember the name or if it's really that case.
Me: *cries in corner with bad chemistry grade*
For viewers that don't know, aluminum makes an oxide later as soon as it can. So yes, the is technically a coatng on the can, but it's simply aluminum that's already reacted with air.
I make aluminum cans for a living. I see a lot of wrong information on the comments and decided to write this.
The reason the aluminum didn’t soften in his first attempt is not because of the presence aluminum oxide layer. Every beverage can you find in the market has a polymeric varnish layer (acrylic, polyester or epoxy). This is both in the inside and outside of the can body and also the lid. When the guy sands the metal, he is basically removing that layer. The aluminum grade that is used for the lid has also what we call a pretreatment which is either chromium or zirconium thin layer.
I hope that helps.
Hey DaveHax thank you for keeping me entertained all my childhood ❤
Aluminium always forms a really small slayer of aluminium oxide by reacting with oxygen in the air. It is really thin but aluminium oxide is quite a stable material, which prevented the fusion with gallium.
Forward to 2:50 if you don't want your precious time wasted.
THANK YOU
It’s pretty interesting to be honest. I didn’t skip.
Thank!

Like is this his real voice he sounds like a robot and I understand he has an accent but I do to I’m from Sweden
Been watching your video's for nearly 6 Years now, never been bored watching them!
Dear DaveHax, You’re one subscriber closer to 6M 🎉 I love watching your videos. Keep up the good work!
I do want to point out for your knowledge and everyone else's that the aluminum can is actually made of two parts and are basically crimped together. Both parts are also coated with a special protective layer. In order to make a whole can brittle, you would need to sand the top and the side or bottom, then apply gallum to both sanded areas. Hope this helped ^^
the "protective layer" is actually just aluminum oxide, which is very hard and resistant to attack by chemicals. Aluminum is actually a highly reactive metal but thanks to its oxide layer it's pretty safe in most circumstances.
@Comrade Garrett there's some that only react to the layer of oxide
"Thomas was amazed the gallium had affected Percy to such a degree. In future he would apply more in the hope of ending his misery, once and for all."
@Lazys The Dank Engineer gallium affects steel in the same way it does aluminum
th-cam.com/video/2KyJtGaejzY/w-d-xo.html
@Lazys The Dank Engineer th-cam.com/video/2KyJtGaejzY/w-d-xo.html
i knew id find a Thomas reference.
Aluminuim reacts with the air to make aluminium oxide which isnt affected by gallium. Scratching away this layer lets the gallium infuse into the aluminium and make AlGal.
M8 that was an amazing trick . I live in Oregon USA where those cans have a .10 cts deposit , so I don't think , I'll be doing that type of experiment on them . Lol. Keep up the good work. God bless y'all.
I read about it Randall Munroe's 'What if' and I'm here lol
i was gunna ask if there was anyone else 🥺
Helllllo my like-minded friends!!!!! I feel welcomed here🥺
Me to 😂
I can explain why this happened. When aluminium is subject to air, it forms a layer of aluminium oxide around itself. This is why aluminium doesn’t rust and would explain why the gallium did nothing, it was not in contact with aluminium, but aluminium oxide, but when you sanded the can, you took that layer off and so the gallium was able to find some aluminium
It doesn't rust because rusting is exclusive to iron. However it is correct that the aluminium oxide causes the aluminium to resist corrosion.
Useless Penguin yes, I stand corrected, but you say that the Aluminium oxide is why it resists corrosion, but technically, the aluminium oxide is corrosion, as it has reacted with oxygen :)
I might've also mentioned that however since (if you count general metal corrosion as 'rust' which is fairly common however not technically correct) you mentioned it didn't rust (which implies it is not corroding as rust is a form of corrosion) I didn't mention about how it is technically corroding as you already stated that the aluminium wasn't rusting :)
NEEEEEEERD. KIDDING
memage1337 mlg 1337 GCSE chemistry, it’s compulsory:)
I remember doing exactly what you're doing with gallium in the first minute of your video with mercury. I stumbled on a batch of old thermostat in the garbage when I was young and broke them to keep the mercury. Those were obsolete units who had been replaced in a appartement block in my neighbourhood. There was approximately a cup of the stuff.
Yeah the 70's were most innocent times. Me and my parents didn't know it was toxic. I still have the bottle somewhere but it's sealed. It's quite heavy. Maybe I will find some use for it.
its totally safe....UNLESS you boil it and breathe the fumes on purpose.....you can even eat it....but dont....😮😮🎉🎉😂
There may be another reason why this works so well. Another TH-camr @Chemteacherphil showed that each aluminum can has a plastic coating on the inside.
the protective "coating" is aluminum oxide. it naturally forms on the aluminum when aluminum contacts the oxygen in the air.
So if i get 4 gallonns of this and put it on a bank vault would it turn it soft? ......just asking for a friend
Scottie Drippin lol
The bank deserves to be robbed if they use aluminium vaults.
What you wanna do since the bank vaults aren't aluminium, is first cover an aircraft in gallium, then when it's structurally compromised and 'unusable', freeze it solid again with liquid nitrogen, then fly the airplane and crash it into the bank walls shattering the plane into pieces. Pick up one of the pieces, the resulting alloy will dissolve the bank vault and you should get in no problem.
nope you get turned into a felon

Welcome to another episode of what quarantine has tought me! 🌝
This really explains the importance of coating of any metal
The “coating” is called an oxide layer. All metals oxidize when exposed to oxygen. Aluminum oxide is an extremely robust oxide and acts as a barrier to acids and other elements.
Not all metals oxidize when exposed to oxygen. Most do, but not gold, platinum, iridium, etc.

What you scratched off is a layer called aluminium oxide. It forms very quickly with the oxygen in the air, but after it’s been removed the aluminium is free to react! The reason the red bull can wasn’t as soft is because an oxide layer began to form again! Hope this helps!
