- I attempt to make peroxide using the anthraquinone process used in industry. I will try again using higher pressure, temperature and perhaps a different catalyst.

A couple suggestions. 1) prepare the hydrogen separately and store it in a balloon or something. Then make your setup capable of separately having vacuum and hydrogen input. Separating the two system gives a lot more control.
2) when purging the system, it's a good idea to do 3 cycles. So vacuum and fill with hydrogen, then vaccum again, 3 times, just to make sure there is like 0 air left. Air remenants might not actually be a huge deal though.
3) palladium is rarely used as raw palladium powder because of cost, and efficiency.
The efficiency is intimately tied to the surface area. Usually the palladium is supported on a solid support like carbon, al2o3, etc. which increases its surface area immensely.
I'm interested in seeing what you try next!
I hope codysaw your coment. im also internested in another video like this one
How about you try them?
dol- -lod Uh, I hope you know NileRed makes chemistry videos too... and goes a lot more in-depth...
I am a big fan of NileRed man
@NileRed can you give us a clean video on this? There are quite a few folks interested in this now in the USA since you can't buy 35% from ANYWHERE anymore.
Famous last words in the chemistry lab: "Eh, it's probably fine"...
@Parody Poops Attempting shutdown! It’s not… it’s not… *Loud explosion* *Screams*
Well shit, now i can't do my video on hydrogen peroxide synthesis. lol,
But seriously good work Cody. I look forward to the next video.
Lol, look on the bright side tho. Gives you more time to scrub down that fume hood.
How come, would it not be just dandy to have more than one example on the subject? I mean, no two experiments are identical. You both produce great content.
NurdRage make anthraquinone :)
Please do a collab video soon. Like i just suffered Cl2 inhalation - that would make my heart swell.
Seriously?
I didn't know making H2O2 was that complicated.
It feels strange to be the first to watch your video.

Pffft all you need to do is burn some water, it's ez
O-O bonds are pretty unstable very similar to halide-halide bonds. This is due to high electronegativity.
I can’t stop seeing the “lol” on the xylol can
lol
lol
lol

Thank you for posting your attempts & not only your successes. We really _do_ learn so much from our mistakes, as well as watching others. You rock man. Please keep up the fantastic work!
I feel your pain Cody. This is the same thing that happens to me nearly every time I try to replicate an industrial process in the lab. The industry guys have the advantage of purpose built apparatus and lots of research/trial and error to build on. Good job getting at least a small result! That’s a success in my book.
"Ok so lets see if I have any peroxide"
Totally thought it has going to be a taste test.

The trick with those cans is to pour with the spout at the top, not the bottom. You won't spill any that way.
The spout is in the exact center of the can.
Hi Cody,
to test for H2O2 with the classic test (using KI and soap) you need a concentration of peroxide about >7%. Under this the foaming is so small it will not be visible.
You could use permanganate to check the conc. of the peroxide.
Love from germany :)
Watching your work here, and with other solutions, really makes me appreciate the bulk chemical industry production.
Awesome videos man, I love how you test new things rather than the same old experiments everyone else does
Two chemistry students come into a bar.
First one says "I'll have a glass of H2O, please."
Second one: "I'll have a glass of H2O, too."
Second one dies.
Eliphas Leary i knew this comment was coming before I clicked on the video.
takin my lines lol
And now please watch his video where he actually drank H2O2 und survived ;)
Two chemistry students walk into a bar.
The first one says "I'll have a glass of H2O, please."
The second says "I'll have a glass of water too."
The first one is devastated that his assassination plan has failed.
@Hunte13 Very dilute peroxide is fine in small volumes. However, drinking any substantial quantity of even 3% would be quite harmful. Dose makes the poison, as always.
Cody, have you ever been questioned by anyone about buying quantities of certain chemicals? That would be an awesome video to make. Maybe just talk about some chemicals and why they're watched by authorities. Thanks for what you do. Very cool!
Silas Taze second this
third
TH-cam would probably give him trouble for it for “teaching us how to use dangerous chemicals”
William Griffin I would assume it could done vaguely enough, yet still interesting. But I see your point.
pretty bad idea if youre cody lol
Super cool Cody! I did enjoy, thanks for taking the time.
Cody, you kick ass!! Been watching for probably 5 years and always enjoy your videos. Keep this science train going!
I dont know a lot about the process, but half an hour of air bubbling (without stirring?) at room temperature might not be enough to oxidise the anthrahydroquinone. Also, with the low amount of starting materials and assuming not-so-great yields in both steps (as is usual for homemade chemistry), you wouldnt expect to have more than a little bit of hydrogen peroxide in your solution. (2 grams of anthraquinone and 30% yield would lead to only 3 mmols or 0.1g of hydrogen peroxide, making your test solution roughly 1%)
The light might be destroying the o-o bonds. Prolonged exposure of H2O2 to light will cause it to break down in to oxygen and H2O.
Iron Beard
Only on a very long term. It takes a year or two (if it is conserved without any metal ion contamination) to observe a significant change in H2O2 concentration, in 30% solutions. If the solution is more diluted (like cody's), it will take longer.
Don't feel too bad, that was very interesting to watch as always. Thanks Cody!
No worries Cody, keep up the great videos! I love learning from your channel!
That’s a cool bong where did u get it from
Yee
Khaffit XD
What the frick! I thought that was an Xbox card. I mean an Xbox remote.

Just out of curiosity what audiobook were you listening to

darude sandstorm
Hey Conner
I love your channel and your videos please keep making them. While I get lost in the technical jargon I love how you have the ability and knowledge take 1 (or more) item and turn it (them) into something completely different.
Glad to see you post. I've been wondering where you were
Could you actually melt and cast a piece of SILICON ? It would be challenging, I guess. You could then ask the waterjet guys to cut it or the hydraulic guys to crush it.
No
"anthraquanine"
First "blech" and now "anthraquanine"
Cody, I did and do enjoy all of your videos. I don't understand all the knowledge you have, but I'm fascinated at all you do.
Thanks Cody! Very cool attempt.
Cody, you should try to spot the ISS at night. NASA has a website called spot the station and it lets you see what times the ISS will pass over you at night. You just type your location and it shows sighting times around you, the amount of degrees it is in the sky, and also what direction it comes from. If you use a very good telescope you'll be able see the solar panels and US part of the station. If you do everything right you'll see a small moving dot that looks like a star. Zoom in on the moving star and maybe you will see the station. Tip: Even if your location is not on the website, you can just use the places around you.
Also, Anthraquinone is pronounced An -thra -quin- none
My uncle setup a 16" telescope to try and catch it based on the cordinates NASA gave out. You could see it shoot past the lens and could almost make out the solar panels if it wasn't moving so fast.
It is extremely difficult to find and track ISS in a telescope.
A smart guy like you should have a nice lab area to do all your work, instead of working on a piece of drywall. Your channel does very well, so I'm surprised you don't have a well lighted area with a beautiful lab setup and backdrop.
Stop being elitist.
Love it!! Thank you again for share your experience and knowledge!!!!!!!
Love these videos!
I want “Eh it’s probably fine” to be my last words
Coolest video I've ever seen. I love your channel.
Amazing experiment, thank you for sharing!
Cody we love you. Keep it up. Love, Montana
Attempt 1? When will attempt 2 be uploaded?
Just after the explosion.
how high will be up- loaded?
Joaquin Elio 😐
apparently not for a while
Can I say that I’ve never seen a video on TH-cam titled anything like “making hydrogen peroxide” that wasn’t made by codys lab
Cody so simple from the outside and nonunderstandable from the inside thats why im lovin Cody :) and no change after 1m subs.... good vid and keep it going.
I totally enjoy that. Hope to see more in 2020.
cody thats a nice lime cola that you made, looks tasty
Cody, I think your videos would benefit from filming/editing with 60 frames per second. You move a lot and the shots with your hands will feel more realistic and easier on the eyes at 60fps.
Good vid , keep up with the amazing work
I find that experiments that don't go as planned are much more instructive. Always fun to witness the learning process in action!
Cody can you do some stuff involving thermodynamics, I think that would be interesting.
I agree! I've seen a lot of thermodynamics in action from..... less than standard living conditions in a cold climate.
"Cody angrily makes hydrogen peroxide to distract himself from the loss of his egg-children"
-a better title
I asked to see this once. Love your videos Cody, and I love your personality. We are similar in so many ways.
Cool, looking forward to seeing you improve on this.
I almost clicked away from this because I misread it as "making hydric acid attempt 1."
The Cody who cried wolf.
Hey Cody. I didn't get a TH-cam notification for this, nor is it showing up in my feed. Only knew it existed via reddit. Is TH-cam messing you around again?
It's unlisted. Nobody can see it unless they're given a link
I just want to say, I like every video I see where Cody makes a slab, writes codyslab on it and then says "this is a cody slab". Havent seen this one all tge way through, but its gold.
Amazing video! I like the use of metallic palladium as a catalyst!
Doesn't the bottle of purchased peroxide have the strength by Volume written on it? ie %Vol
Yes. All peroxide bottles have clearly labeled concentrations. That's kind of a law. :p
Thanks
Yes, finally someone read my comment thanks Cody! I've been to few different channels of the same content requesting and, commenting that someone try this and, Cody's the first to do it. Cody rocks!! He is the modern-day MacGyver👍✌
except he has to do stuff that actually works
lol
Cody, is it possible some day that you can show how you break down an experiment like this? I mean the cleaning and maintenance of the glass ware. Thanks
What did you use as a filter in your vacuum flask setup? Was that silicone powder or just a simple cotton swab?
No Nile Red stuff?
Nile red litterally commented above you hahaha
Ay thats a cool bong! oh......ehemmmmm..... i mean vase .
haha i was admiring his glassware too ^_^
DUDE!!! This is so cool! Sorry you didn't get the result you were hoping for, but thank you so much for sharing the process anyways!
And the "Mad Doctor" Cody is back at it in his hidden lab... Lol. You do have the ability to make these videos enjoyable and educational to watch. Thanks again for doing what you do here!
Sorry about the eggs.
Isn't it possible to make H2O2 by bubbling O3 through water?
And a spoon
my understanding is no. O3 is very soluble and apparently just dissolves
Could you? Yes. Would you want to? Probably not. You'll end up with superoxides as the rougemillenial pointed out, even without using anthrahydroquinone. Though the concentration of peroxide formed would be very low, as would the concentration of any superoxides. Like atari7001 said, it's very soluble and oxygen transfer may not happen at all.
LOLZ and you think ozone is easier to make? good luck bud
Ozone is pretty easy to make. Just need a high voltage source and wire.
@Cody'sLab
Apologies for a possibly stupid question, but aren't You pulling acid (in vapour form) into Your vacuum pump using that
procedure when "evacuating" the system ??
As always thank's for another interesting video (of which I comprehended some small parts ;)
Best regards.
I'm so glad to see you do this experiment! I am even more certain that buying H2O2 is my only option!
Super video, thanks for sharing !
Cody could probably be a real life Walter White if he wanted to
You mean, a chemistry teacher?
I swear people can’t watch a chemistry video now without mentioning breaking bad
Pharmaceuticals Music really sad tbh
I just realized, Cody could legit be the irl Breaking Bad😂
Make good use of ur “new glass” and ur country side land
Garen1 so original.
Haha.
Garen1 ya, most chemists especially those with PhDs, which I THINK Cody has because of "Doctor Reider", could just as easily be Walter white too. It's pretty simple science.
Really, if Cody had any latent Breaking Bad tendencies, he wouldn't have put all his knowledge on display at YT. At least, he'd have hidden his face.
Everyone who's anyone is on the list.
You need more soap for elephant toothpaste to work plus a more highly concentrated peroxide. I've found that 30% peroxide and copious Dawn dish soap work best.
Thanks for the video.
Thank you sir, you made me really appreciate every bottle I buy at Walmart for 88 cents!
I doubt it if all those items are shelf items at my local grocery store?
Palladium very expensive.
Rob Carstuff And Platimun is shockingly low 😭
Gold is more valuable than platinum right now.
Yea well who cares if it is a catalyst, it should be reusable.
Caveman speak right here
Yes, because you can use it to make an Arc reactor
Reddit is my new notification bell
Same for me xD
Plebbit users are the worst
edit: I'm serious
edit:I met this plebbit user once and he smelt like shit and wouldn't stop talking about how Ubuntu is the best operating system and he wouldn't stop going on about how Raspberry pi and the ARM chip is the future, didn't surprise me because he was quite on the obese side.
edit:I really hate leddit.
edit down voted.
you didnt even edit your comment idiot
Thomas W
Being this stupid.
"I met this plebbit user once"
You met one shitty user out of millions so all Redditors are the worst. Great logic
*I LOVE when Cody does chemistry videos !!*
Nice, I remember seeing you comment on a NileRed video about getting this glassware; good on ya, this type of kit seems really nice to work with :) looking forwards to more chem
Don't drink this!
on a scale of one to dead... how much should i not-drink it?
Don't breathe this!
It's not even as strong as 3% drug store peroxide. Wouldn't that be harmless?
MrRoboskippy - I've seen pretty weak hydrochloric acid with a little "weak" 3% peroxide added. It was then able to do some gnarly things to metals. I wouldn't drink even 3% in fear of the reaction with stomach acid.
so then i should drink it? okay will do.
Do you have a “real world” job other than TH-cam ?
Standard/typical/day job might have been the phrase(s) you were looking for, if thats the reason you were using quotes.
Nice try and great learning experience. I'm sure you'll get it next run.
Hi cody!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
Video came out 12 seconds ago but people commented on it two weeks ago ._.
G0D is hiring reddit
G0D is hiring on his subreddit he posts the unlisted video, only people with a link can watch an unlisted video
I pretty much just received the notification on youtube
BOT Zachary ohh that’s neat
Hmm
Why are you making all of these chemicals and telling us you may make them in industrial sclae (nh3,h2so4,amd this)?
Are you planning to make a chemical plant or a rocket to take you to Mars?
He's planning to make a hybrid rocket with H2O2 and wax (saw it elsewhere in the comments)
seems legit
and he wants to make a fusion reactor.
I want to help with cody's competing project for falcon 9. We can do it without millions of dollars and just engineering! We'll just mine some ore laying around the ranch, hook up some mercury stills, mine some platinum off the road......
Where do you get lab equipment from? The only place I kmow is the U of M warehouse thing where there are some old lab equipment but some unused stuff too
Keep up Cody! Nice video about peroxide! Can’t wait for your improve on the process. The serie about the mine is going to have more videos? Would like to see that coming! Keep up the good work and content! Thanks!!
10 mins later.. DEMONETIZED.
Is it just me, or is he definitely pronouncing Anthraquinone really incorrectly?
Anthraquoinine? lol... Just like every Americans: "nukelor" instead of "nuclear", "aluminum" instead of "aluminium", "garilla" instead "guerrilla", "kornal" instead of "colonel"... Mispronunciation is typical American.
+SymbolX "Aluminum" is the proper way to say it, though.
SymbolX what kind of Americans are you talking about that can't pronounce nuclear or guerrilla
SymbolX I've never heard anyone pronounce nuclear as nukelor, it's spelled Aluminum over here so of course we aren't going to say "Aluminium", and how tf is colonel pronounced over there?
Aluminum is how it is actually spelled here, not just pronounced. And no one says "kornal", they say "kernel", because that is how it is pronounced. There are definitely dummies that say nuke-you-lar though.
Cody’s made me fall in love with chemistry. Unfortunately I only know minimal reactions and I can’t even remember the atomic weight of anything past the reactive metals on the periodic table so I must therefore live vicariously through Cody
I find it cooler when you show us a practical use of them chemicals you make.
2 guys walk into a bar... the first guy says id like a glass of h20... the bartender serves him... the second guy asks for a glass of h2o too, he died... what happened?
Is h2o2 is hydrogen peroxide
h2o2 is hydrogen peroxide
He recited the same joke he heard in the last bar.
he got corrosified from the inside out
Aaahhhh..! A joke to be listened not read. I tought the second guy was from Signals.
So... all of us watching this come from the subreddit?
Doctor Disco seems so!
facebook aswell
Doctor Disco yeah
Doctor Disco no
What is a subreddit?
I understand absolutely nothing about the chemistry behind all of this, however i still get exited whenever you upload a new video
Thank you very much!
You make an excellent teacher Cody
Hey cody I was getting a midnight snack and I turned on my living room lights and then I turned it off and the lights were glowing green like your tridium rods so I was wondering is that a miniscule amount of tridium or just the murcuery gas in it?
Fascinating, I've always wondered how this was made. Such a common chemical until now and its a great wake up call to realise this stuff is not simple to make. I use it for getting rid of warts but 3% is just not strong enough it needs to be 6% which is no longer available, Wasn't that long ago one could buy 30%+
More of this please!
Sick bong dude
great job
Saved me money on an experiment, thank you.
Well Done Man !
Thats a sick bong fam
cody I love all the videos, and I always wondered how to male h2o2, you should try to grow a quartz crystal then make a radio with it. I think that would be awesome to see
I know when you pull a vacuum on hydrochloric acid you get a lot of hydrogen chloride vapor. I dont' know if that happened here, but as the H2 went into solution on the anthraquinone side, at some point you probably had some HCl coming over as well. I can't say for sure but I can't imagine it doesn't have some effect on the kinetics of the anthraquinone process. Maybe just stick with the sulfuric acid?
Hi Cody, really enjoy your videos. I was wondering if you've looked into generating hydrogen by combining gallium with aluminium and adding that to water? I aaw a video where someone broke a solid lock with gallium and touched on it. Pretty neat stuff!
