Sir I really appreciate the fact that your are out in the field round the clock 24/7. Clearly, that means you've got the pioneering spirit. Plus a fair amount of knowledge in chemistry & managing skills. I know the road to success may be ROUGH but it leads to the STARS. Greetings from France.
Sodium carbonate (also known as soda ash or washing soda) can be more effective than baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) for neutralizing spills of strong acids like sulfuric acid. Sodium carbonate is a stronger base compared to baking soda, and the reaction with the acid is more vigorous, but you should have baking soda nearby, at the very least. Having lots of water nearby is also important in case it gets on your skin or in your eyes.
The addition of water, sulfuric acid, and sodium nitrate to a system containing palladium, silver, and copper can lead to a series of reactions resulting in the formation of the respective metal nitrates until the nitric acid depletes, so UREA is not needed. Sulfuric acid by itself will not digest palladium, so it leaves the gold and PGM's. If you need the sulfuric acid to work faster, then increase to concentration. All metal sulfides will digest. The reactivity of metal sulfides with sulfuric acid can vary depending on the specific metal and sulfide involved. While many metal sulfides can react with sulfuric acid to form metal sulfates and hydrogen sulfide gas, the extent and rate of the reaction can differ. The combination of hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide gases can lead to the formation of elemental sulfur under certain conditions. This reaction is often referred to as the Claus process, which is a common industrial method for the production of elemental sulfur from hydrogen sulfide. Elemental sulfur obtained through processes like the Claus process or other methods can be converted back to sulfuric acid through various chemical processes. One common method for the conversion of sulfur to sulfuric acid involves the Contact Process, which consists of several steps. The catalyst used typically involves vanadium. A lot of people use hydrogen peroxide too as there is more than one way.
When a solution of sulfuric acid and water is heated, as in a distillation process, the water will vaporize, and the concentration of sulfuric acid in the remaining liquid will increase. This is known as an azeotropic point, where the vapor and liquid have the same composition. As water vaporizes, the remaining solution becomes more concentrated in sulfuric acid. If you notice a white slurry developing, it could indicate the presence of solid compounds that are less soluble in the more concentrated sulfuric acid. These solid compounds may include minerals or heavy metals that were dissolved in the initial solution but become less soluble as the acid concentration increases. Adding water to hot concentrated acid can be extremely hazardous and is not recommended. The addition of water to concentrated sulfuric acid is an exothermic reaction, meaning it releases heat. This can lead to a rapid increase in temperature, and in some cases, it may cause the mixture to boil or splatter, posing a significant risk of burns and injuries. If you need to dilute concentrated sulfuric acid, it's important to follow a specific procedure: add the acid slowly to a larger volume of water while stirring continuously. This way, the heat generated is dissipated, and the dilution occurs more safely. Controlling the temperature during the dilution of concentrated sulfuric acid is a good approach to ensure safety. Using a reflux distillation setup or employing a controlled addition of water while maintaining the temperature can help prevent rapid vaporization and splattering. In a reflux distillation setup, the vapor generated during the reaction can condense and return to the reaction vessel, reducing the risk of losing volatile components. This can be particularly useful when working with reactive or volatile substances. Additionally, if a controlled dilution process is needed, adding small amounts of water at a time while monitoring and controlling the temperature allows for a gradual dilution without the risk of excessive heat generation. Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) is a highly toxic and potentially lethal gas. It is colorless, flammable, and has a characteristic foul odor of rotten eggs at low concentrations. However, at higher concentrations, the gas may numb the sense of smell, making it difficult to detect. If you are not converting the gas to something, it can be scrubbed. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) can react with hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) to form sodium sulfide (Na₂S) and water. Just bubble the gas through the solution of NaOH.

After Dropping with SMB Sreetips would boil the nano gold and they would come together and settle out. Maybe as fast as 15 minutes. I wonder if that would work after the aluminum drop?
YEah i do this with Electronic scrap But in canada its extremely hard to get nitric acid unless you want to spend an arm and a leg on like a litre of the stuff HNO3 i just super expensive so i have to make my own with sodium nitrate and sulfuric acid. Good job keep it up!
You don’t need that nitric aside . You need to know one thing chlorine dissolves the gold !!!!all that aqua regia is just for one think generate chlorine gases . So to make chlorine is a lot of different chemicals just found what is cheaper in your areas
boa noite amigo , muito bom seus videos,obrigado por partilhar seus conhecimentos, sou de brasil eu uso um tradutor de youtube para portugues,abraço,Deus abençoe.
Sreetips has a good trick. He dips a little filter paper in with a stick and then check for gold in the solution after the precipitation. It tells You all the gold has dropped. if not add more aluminum or zinc or smb
Man sreetips working with big amounts of gold . I working with gold ore ! Gold ore have wery little gold if I use his methods to se the gold I don’t see the gold at all.
I had some that wouldn't drop. I put it in a jar with copper and something dropped. So something was definitely left in the solution.. It's dipping a little piece of filter paper and then drop your stannous on it.. As for the boiling trick. as a cook, I can tell you that flavors developed as the soup is concentrated. It seemed crazy to me to boil the gold nano particles. But it looked liked when agitated, they bump into each other. Gold loves other Gold so it sticks and settles. I'm going to boil my dropped stuff.@@myadventure7069
While we are on the subject of boiling or agitating when you really want it to settle out. I wonder if a vibrator would agitate in much smaller shakes to let the microscopic gold settle. I have it on my sluice but I do all my classifying on that in gold pains and classifiers.. You would love a vibrator to shake your classifiers . It sure makes it easy. I saw a guy selling a table that does it.. I had to put a speed control to keep it from vibrating too hard. I think it is great on the sluice like that Aussie Bloke Prospector uses to get fine Gold.. @@myadventure7069 Keep up the great work. Thank you. This is VERY helpful. God Bless You friend!
The chemical formula for gold nitrate is Au(NO₃)₃. In this compound, gold is in the +3 oxidation state, and it forms a complex with nitrate ions (NO₃⁻). Gold nitrate is typically a yellowish to orange solid. Adjusting the pH can have an impact on chemical reactions, including those involving gold nitrate (Au(NO₃)₃). However, the specific effects would depend on the pH conditions and the presence of other substances. Gold nitrate is known for forming complexes with various ions. You seem interested in invisible gold, and this is one of many examples of exactly that; however, it is one that can be avoided by not synthesizing it in your lab. 🤔
At 27:00 you added hcl to the nitric, doesn't that make AR and redissolve the gold? I see that it did not appear to dissolve the black powder and so I ask this question
Royal Water, Aqua Regia is 2/3 hydrochloric acid and 1 third nitric acid. I think he was getting more like 1 to 1 .. just don't go 2 to 1. I hope this helped. I thought the same thing. You are on the team. Thank you.
@paulcoover9197 you don’t need make 1 to 3 then you don’t need a lot of urea to kill that nitric . Remember my videos when I was dissolving gold with very weak aqua regia.
@@myadventure7069 I remember this and have a stubborn sense of learning. You have demonstrated this multiple times and I must try because of a diminishing supply of nitric. You seem to accomplish this with 80C heat and filtered water (perhaps distilled water for refining)
To dissolve gold wee don’t need strong acids . In the rocks gold is very small that way I using weeak acids , if you doing refining you need strong acids like Sreetips doing on his channel.mosly people making mistake when they trying dissolve gold with strong aqua regia . Rocks don’t have a lot of gold inside that why they can’t get gold to much nitric acid
I know that you are outside but don't you think it would be wise to have some type of hood ventilation system in place? Not trying to be a dick just worried about your safety. Otherwise thanks for all of the videos you put out. The information you give is priceless
That is why I don’t use nitric aside. This way I don’t get dangerous fumes. I found if you use low heat you don’t get a fumes and if you use weak aquaregia you don’t get the fumes . Believe me I was working on that for a long time. Watch my videos in the beginning where I was working on the week aqua regia . I found out Thad you don’t need strong acids to dissolve gold . By the way in your stomach, you have hydrochloric acid and you somehow surviving and you breeding nitrogen dioxide and that is almost nitric acid and you still thinking I doing dangerous job.?
