Wow, if an ampule of cesium had no danger it would make for a great toy. Forming and melting crystals by hand heat.
If I trusted myself enough, I'd certanly buy an ampoule.
@@poppedweasel It cost about 100 to 150US$ for a 1 g ampoule. I just like my mercury ampoule.
@@louistournas120 Yeah, making that stuff yourself is much cheaper.
@@yaykruser Yes, I have seen 2 people do it by starting with CsCl which is a cheap source of cesium. They used lithium as a reducer. They also used a distillation setup under vacuum to collect the cesium gas and condense back to liquid.
It is probably the same for other alkali metals and earth metals. The salts are a cheaper source for the element.
Gallium is non-toxic, and has a similar melting point.
The quality of these videos is incredible
Brutally unbelievable ! The early videos were also fantastic but now the exquisite quality of this videos puts then up there in the top 5%
I still have a lot of low-quality footages. Now I don't know what to do with it 🥲
@@ChemicalForce Montage? Or maybe as part of some "year of" type deal?
I agree. Top notch
@@ChemicalForce make a second channel
Honestly one of the most impressive things about this is how steady you are able to keep your hand to drop a tiny droplet perfectly onto a tiny lump of caesium
lol was thinking the same thing!
08:00 he missed.

7:55 Just casually the much requested reaction with fluorosulfonic acid. This is the best chemistry channel on TH-cam and will continue to grow.
I sure hope so, this channel is a hidden gem.
THIS is the Perfect way to present an explosion!
From beginning to end, constant slow-mo speed, constant camera angle, no fluff.
This way you allow the viewer to take in the experience, not push a "cinematic" experience onto them.
Thank you for the pleasure!
I appreciate the amount of effort you put into that intro, lol. Was awesome.
Also, it's hard to overstate the production quality of your videos. They're undoubtedly getting much better (and they were never bad to begin with).
You will certainly reach 1M subscribers rather quickly :-D
Whole heatedly agree!
Thanks 😀
Couldn't agree more. This channel is the very definition of a hidden gem. I await every video.
overdramatic and slow; hard -> touh; will -> shall
@@alysdexia what?...
"Existence is pain." - Cesium
An element so angry putting it in ammonia makes it tear off electrons hard enough you can see them with the naked eye.
I dearly wish my Chemistry class had been more practical and demonstrative, I may have payed attention.
Fist you pay, then you play.
Putting any alkali metal in ammonia produces solvated electrons though. Even the group 2 metals do that, and even some others.
Any alkali metal does that, stop it with the cheesy comments
@@BackYardScience2000 I would argue that all the group 1 and 2 elements share the philosophy of Cesium that existence is, in fact, pain.
he just like me fr
I'd love to see you do a Collab with Gav & Dan, or Destin. The quality of their slow-mo, paired with your chemistry knowledge, would be an amazing combination.
I second that 100%
I don't think I'll ever stop being amazed with the ease with which this man handles absurdly dangerous chemicals safely. Including while combining them in the specific ways that make them exceptionally dangerous in the first place. My hat is off to you, good sir!
cesium is very reactive, but is not actually that dangerous on its own. you might be thinking of the radioactive isotope of it, 137. THAT is a great source of gamma radiation.
cesium is chemically safe. What makes it dangerous are radioactive isotopes like cesium 137. Cesium 133 is non-radioactive, so its like copper or aluminium
Yeah he's probably responsible for some of the bombs that's gone off in America.
I've only ever had cesium combust in air by itself once and that was when I was bottling 10g and spilled it. But it spread out a LOT and I think that the high surface area was what caused it to catch fire. I just dumped a bunch of mineral oil on it and extinguished it quickly and was able to save around 4g.
I hope it wasn't in your backyard.
@@nocturnhabeo actually.....
M
R-I-g-h-t, and you just happened to have some mineral oil near by Mr. Fumblefist, hope you were removed from your position for being too clumsy with dangerous chemicals.
@@robertlangley258whiny little baby
Some of these reactions start very slowly, showing little to no effect for several seconds after contact, and then explode in less than a millisecond. To me this is a great display of the explosive power of the exponential function. Even when the base is only slightly above 1, you only get a limited time before the function explodes. (Try plotting y=1.001^x in something like Desmos and then zoom out until you see anything happen.)

Ya, that's because all the reactions are in slowmo....
Cesium bismuth amalgam has some pretty interesting properties. I would love to see a beautiful bismuth Crystal dissolved in some gold cesium. The aliens are sure to come after such alchemy.
Nice try, alien cleric xD
It reacts violently with bismeuth forming a wierd dark reddish intermetallic material. Mercury reaction is similar to that of sodium. 🤓
I love how your bromine drop mostly missed Cs, but the energy managed to throw it around through the air.
With fluorosulfonic acid the miss was quite a happy accident. It was beautiful
The videos always amaze me. Loved the second to last "cesium in ammonia and iodine monochloride" those colours.
Mesmerizing colors. I loved jt
WOW!
I don't think I've ever seen so much caesium in one place before!
The quality of these videos is awesome
cesium is used as a drilling fluid, it isn't that uncommon.
The amount of effort put into these videos is insane, this is for sure one of the most underrated channels on yt :)
I think part of why it reacts so violently in water (more than potassium, for example) is because of its actual reactivity, but part of it is it’s dense enough to sink below the surface before bursting. That means that instead of blowing up into the air it blows into more water completing the reaction.
And another part of the explosiveness comes from cesium’s low melting point, turning into a liquid with minimal heating from room temperature. The said liquid then gets its electrons ripped off by H2O and causes a Coulomb explosion where bits of positively charged alkali metal particles violently repel one another. This is exactly the reason why NaK explodes like cesium does, sodium produces delayed explosions (if it does explode at all), and lithium simply does not explode when thrown into water.
But the effect is quite different if compared to a Na/K alloy.
I'm sure that ammonia combo boiling everywhere smelled great, but that's what fume hoods are for of course.
A whole lot of chloroform being exploded in every direction must've also been quite an experience
I'm glad TH-cams algorithm pointed me to your channel! Very Interesting, educational and fun! Subscribed!
This video was absolutely incredible, but I feel like I would've enjoyed more commentary on why certain things were the way they were. Like the pinkish purple smoke, or how slow the liquid combination was to come out of the tube.
That being said, this video was absolutely fantastic, and I'm overjoyed that I got the opportunity to watch it
Very much agree!
Hello ChemicalForce!
Traditional soaps use NaOH and KOH as bases and LiOH is used to make lubricating grease.
I wonder what happens if more exotic forms of base such as RbOH or CsOH were used instead.
What kind of "soap" would they produce? Perhaps this could be an interesting idea for a future video.
I would like to see this too! I’d like to see what kinds of soaps RbOH and CsOH would make.
And for that matter, FrOH and 119OH/UueOH if they ever manage to make element 119.
@@129140163 If only Francium was stable enough to do chemistry with. It would've probably looked like extremely reactive dark metal liquid (or almost) at room temp
The reaction with HSO3F and the Iodine compound (that purple cloud was so beautiful) are simply awesome, such a great video quality, keep going!
This is so cool! I love seeing cesium reactions, and bromine is one of my favorite elements, so seeing them both react together is amazing!
Feliks hasn't only inscenated his 100th video, he celebrated it - congratulations!
This very precious metal was worth it!
Wow that near instant reaction with the Fuming nitric acid was incredible.
You're showing THE chemistry you sometimes think of like: wow that'd be awesome, but so dangerous 😂 SO AWESOME!!
That was a fun intro. Loved the video as usual, but the iodide cloud was particularly awesome. You never disappoint, my friend.
I actually had to catch my breath. Usually I watch in awe, but this time other people in the house could hear me yelling OMG. What a treat it is. Thank you my friend!
If science class were this cool, we'd have so many more scientists.
The ones that survived would be very skilled
@lightingnerd we need more teachers like that.
Bro, you continue to impress. I love your content. I hope you are well :)
Your videos never fail to amaze me! It's so cool to see such exotic chemicals reacting together. Your production quality is next level too!
Chemistry+Halo music+hi-speed camera=nerd bliss for me! Superb content.
Dude I'm so jealous, I wish I could lay my hands on some wonderful chemical compounds like you and make things blow... I'm a chemistry student and I'm so freaking excited to have my own lab someday :'D
Never give up on reaching your goal :D
You could turn some of the stills from your high speed footage into art.
Congrats on 100 fantastic videos! Thanks for showing us the raw power of caesium as your anniversary, that was awesommee
I cannot stress how much I enjoy these videos! They are works of art!
agree this videos are superb
Destroying those cesium is really heartbreaking for a poor chemist like me!
By the way the vid is as always extraordinary!!!!
I wouldn't even want to break the nice 99.99% ampules, they're beautiful ;-) but it is in the name of science!
@@MrJef06 Cesium is rare but very expensive to produce! Would've been cool if he recycled the cesium he destroyed!! But that's absolutely tedious and might not be even worth doin'! If I was him, I would store it and periodically show it to people just to prove I'm expert in chem coz I got access to a rare reagent! 😂😂😂
@@heisenbergstayouttamyterri1508 I've looked at it for many years. Now I feel better 😅
@@ChemicalForceHaha nice! 👍👍👍
Cesium is so interesting compared to the rest of the alkaline metals. I wonder if you could show some of the soluble cesium compounds to show why the radioactive isotopes are so dangerous?
this is not the radioactive isotope of cesium (137). you can only get that as a byproduct of nuclear reactors, and no regular citizen can own it without special permits. cs137 is a heavy gamma emitter, which is what makes it so dangerous. you would not be storing it in glass ampules :)
Stunning!!! This is something i've never seen!! Thanks for the Amazing video!!
Reactions looks litteraly beautiful.....❤
Coolest footage I have seen in a long while. Thanks!
These reactions are so beautiful! Especially the iodine ones
12:51 That's one of the most beautful chemical reactions I've ever seen.
I swear I learn more about chemistry from youtube than I ever did in chemistry class. Absolutely incredible to see this stuff in the safest environment possible. At my house hiding behind a computer screen lol.
By far the best quality video on caesium and its reactions I’ve ever seen. The violet of the caesium-tainted hydrogen flame with water is clearly visible, and the solvation in ammonia is a revelation. Slo-mo filming makes all the difference.
Thanks a lot! 😏
This is outstanding beautiful work! Congratulations on the 100th video!
Breathtaking slow motion!!! Beautiful work my friend!!
Wow i've always wondered what cesium looked like, thanks for doing all those reactions!
My dad is a retired chemist, and he absolutely loved this video.
Beautiful video, the Cesium in ammonia reacting with ICl was amazing.
Stunning 😮 the slow motion was mesmerising ❤️👍👍👍
Absolutely fantastic, the slow photography is top class, the colours are beautiful
This was a beautiful demonstration, thank you. Chemistry is so amazing
Next level video. Nicely done! Please never stop !
thanks, I'll try to keep the brand 😅
Just epic cinematically wise!
The utterly and entirely mad reactions are as satisfying as they could be aswell.
Cheers.
Amazing video! Those reactions are so beautiful in slow motion!
Some chemical reactions are so beautiful! I love when you mix chemicals!
The quality on this video was incredible. You really hit it out of the park sir
Knew this video was going to be great but man it was even better. The quality is insane. Hope you can continue showing us high quality footage of cool reactions for 100 or more videos!
This was so beautiful and amazing to watch! Subscribed!
Just stumbled across this channel and the quality of your videos is just absolutely amazing. Props to you, you're going to hit 1 mill subs reeaaalll quick
This has both impressive videography and chemical reactions. Nicely done!
the shots are so crisp and perfect, great job!
Thanks for the advice, was about to go and transfer my vast caesium stash to my chloroform storage unit! So glad someone told me!
Absolutely Epic!
So cool. Thanks
Beautiful reactions with iodine cloride again! Thanks!
Every video gets better and better! Keep up the good work!
I loved this video. I can not imagine a more FASCINATING episode, and the introduction was very professional! Really, your videos always look like a million dollars. What a surprise it was to see beautiful golden cesium turn black and ugly so quickly.
So awesome, thank you!
Great work. Thank you.
That practical effects intro ... amazing stuff!
The slow motion footage is so beautiful.
Thank you.
This masterpiece is worthy of the 100th video, you've outdone yourself, kudos :D
Thats a LOT of damage!
An excellent videa as always! Especially the chloroform reaction I’ve never heard of before. Might try it after I get around to make some cesium.
For the first video I've seen absolutely amazing!!! Why have I never seen cesium react to things before, great work with the camera!!!!
Magnificent! This is inarguably purest state of art.
Extremely entertaining, thank you!
It's so pretty! Your photography is absolutely mesmerizing. You've earned yourself a new subscriber!
Thank you and welcome aboard! 😃
Gorgeous footage. Well done mate.
This video was spectacular! I never would have seen most of this. 🤘😍🤘
I am astounded on how amazing you are becoming at making these videos. Seeing reactions in slow motion makes me want to see a faster camera capture even more detail. A collaboration with the slow mo guys would be awesome!
The shock waves we could see on a few reactions were awesome. Some particles got to surf the shock wave a few times. It looked amazing in slo-mo. The cinematography here just keeps on being amazing.
This is amazing 🤯 You never disappoint.
Congrats and thank you!
I loved the opening presentation! All well done Sir!
The Timelapse Cuts were super Awesome and astonishing OwO
Great Video!
Worth every second. I commend you sir 👍😎
Might be the best slow mo I've ever watched. Thumbs up
Nice one! That was top quality.
Amazing stuff! Thank you for the great video!
Absolutely everything about this video was awesome man. Chemistry is so cool. New subscriber ✌🏻
Those slow motions were like art.. Beautiful!
Such spectacular and beautiful reactions.
I particularly liked the Fluorosulfonic acid and Bromine reactions where you didn't drop it right on top and allowed just the tiniest bit to contact to show the reaction a bit slower and emphasize just how little of the stuff you need for a violent reaction.
great content and production as always, congrats on your 100k+ subscribers!
Fascinating video Sir.
i work with these chemicals every working day and the things you show are incredibly interesting and your videos are well made. congrats!
I do love the cinematography of these videos. They're a real treat for the eye.
And while it can and does get stupid expensive for crazy frame rate... That would be my *only* ask. Some of these reactions... Haha like the nitric here...
No other way to see what is really happening with some of them. Not to mention on so many, that's where the beauty lies as well.
That said no I'm not complaining. It's excellent even as it sits. Nobody else does anything like what he's got going on here.
Watching stuff violently explode to epic music is very satisfying. My best chemistry teacher in high school did show us similar videos (on VHS, before TH-cam was popular) and I loved it, but yours are way better, ChemicalForce. It's amazing how far content on this platform has come when it can easily surpass professionally made videos in quality.
That was magical he turned chemistry into some beautiful art work.
Incredible production quality!
