    I find it amazing that we can make pure carbon out of simple sugar so easily. If I make a very, very thin layer of sugar on a very flat surface, and if I put sulfuric acid on it, any chance I can produce graphene?

    It's not pure carbon. It's a pile of carbon and various organic compounds, plus residual acid.

      I know your comment is 5 years old but you are right, one MUST work under fume hood when using volatile acids like that. However, given the shape of the fumes (1:29) that look sucked in in the lower right corner, i think there is a powerful aspiration or air pressure coming from behind /above the experimentator.

    Hi, I was messing around with a can of deodorant, I sprayed some in a sealable bag that had sugar in, I soon started to realise they reacted and caused the bag to inflate

  • @kurtilein3
    @kurtilein3 12 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    sugar contains hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen, so you can rip water from sugar.
    But with petroleum or gasoline you mostly have chains of carbon surrounded by hydrogen. No oxygen, no way to rip out / split off water. So something else will happen, i still say something will happen because sulfuric acid is so highly corrosive and reactive.
    petrolium/gasoline are both highly complex mixtures of a huge variety of compounds, i guess some compounds will react with the acid, but not others.

    Hi. Great video(s). We've done this before with our kids at home. QUESTION: How can I test that the product is fully neutralized (the acid) and that the sugar is completely spent?
    I'd like to use this perhaps as a source of elemental carbon for, say, making ink or tempera paints. But I want to make sure there's no residual acid / sugar ... without contaminating the elemental carbon. I guess maybe rinse it through filters first with sodium bicarbonate and then water?

      Yup
      Its because sulphuric acid is a strong dehydrating agent and in this reaction it takes all the water and leaves behind carbon .
      Reaction:
      C12H22O11 on reaction with conc H2SO4 gives 12C and 11H2O

      saccharose (C12H22O11)(12C+11 H2O) will have the water pulled out of it by sulfuric acid, making you left with only carbon, so it tries to expand and goes upward.

      @@NickyDana nonono, not at all, the sulfuric acid just pulls the water out to forms intermolecular bonds with the water, the fumes are surelly the water and the acid boiling, as the reaction in itself generates LOTS of heat, and that when water bonds with sulfuric acid it makes a shitton of heat. (That's why you don't add water to acid as it will boil instantly and project acid everywhere).

    • @makuntizichi1444
      @makuntizichi1444 ปีที่แล้ว

      The sulphuric acid simply acts as a very strong dehydrating agent, and removes 11 water molecules from the sugar (C12H22O11), thereby forming intermolecular bonds with water as said by @kill gaet.

    • @killgaet6253
      @killgaet6253 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm not sure, as it would be pure carbon, it's not packed too tight, and most fuels (octane for example) is a mix of carbon and hydrogen, and it's the hydrogen reacting with oxygen during combustion that gives off the most energy.
      so the energy from burning this carbon would be equivalent to burning charcoal.
