      He is just avoiding safety precautions.
      Is like pointing an unloaded gun at your face, they tell you not to, but nothing bad will happen.

      Oxidation layer? Fluorine is an element, not an oxidizer.

    • @covodex516
      @covodex516 8 ปีที่แล้ว +37

      Oxygen is an element too, and it's the origin of the term "oxidizer". Whether a substance is an oxidizer or not is not determined if it's and element or a molecule, but by its ability to rip off electrons from other atoms or molecules (or more exactly, from the atoms of a molecule). Propably one of the best oxidizers known to humanity is chlorine trifluoride, under most circumstances it's a way stronger oxidizer that oxygen itself; it's so strong that it can even make concrete (and nearly every other material besides of fluorine salts) burst into flames and become absolutely inextinguishable.

      ★ TazerYT ★ Not toxic so much as corrosive, in this case. In contact with water it steals a hydroxide group (outgassing hydrogen) and forms lye. This reacts with proteins and fats, which is why Cody mentions the tip of his tongue turning to soap.

    • @stickmandaninacan
      @stickmandaninacan 8 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Many metals are the opposite of toxic and are actually minerals the body needs and will use to form salts and other compounds that the cells need. sodium, iron, magnesium, potassium, calcium are all examples of minerals the body uses. some metals and the heavy metals are toxic to humans, mostly because they can replace other minerals and form different versions of the salts and compounds in the cells that actually inhibit the cells function and can make them die. Mercury, Lead, Aluminium are some examples of toxic metals that do this in your body.

    • @scoopscience
      @scoopscience 8 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      It is because of the electrons on the outer layer of the metals atoms. When light reflects off the electrons, it emits a light wave that we recognise as the silver colour. (I learnt that in my chemistry class mid last year)

    • @garethdean6382
      @garethdean6382 8 ปีที่แล้ว +26

      Most metals reflect all visible light equally and will appear as mirrors if polished. Rough metal surfaces lose some of the light and appear greyish. Some metals like copper also absorb visible wavelengths and are colored.

    Hey Cody, what if you dropped sodium/potassium metal into water in a vacuum? Since sodium reacts with water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. If there is no oxygen will it still burn/explode? Please try this! Thank you.

  • @Dynamedia
    @Dynamedia 8 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Well done!
    What would happen if you release sodium or potassium at several meters depth as oppossed to dropping it onto the surface of water? Would the reaction be more violent as each part of metal that chips/explodes off then cannot escape contact with water? Or would the atmospheric pressure surrounding it contain more of the reaction? It would be interesting to see how it moves when totally submerged.
    I recently found your channel and it's awesome! Keep up the great work!

      @theCodyReeder  8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    • @Pangaron
      @Pangaron 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The little I understood from watching Thunderf00t's videos on the theme of alkaline metals reacting with water, it seems that the shape and "purity" of the part first touching the water can affect the explosion effect greatly. Since these are Coulomb explosions (although there are still some people denying that), there is a lot to learn about them yet and as Cody said, they are not fully understood. I recommend you to watch Thunderf00t's video series on the theme.

    • @kleetus92
      @kleetus92 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It would appear that the reaction actually heats the metal to it's melting point and possibly to a boiling point... once that happens, it's surface area to react with oxygen is greatly increased and hence the further explosions. But as pointed out, it's not a set science.

    AvE mentioned on one of his videos about using a special charger to recover any form of rechargeable batteries but he didn't explain how. So details on the chemistry of batteries would be interesting.
