In this video I put a diamond in one of the most dangerous solutions called piranha solution. I show you how crazy this highly acidic/highly oxidizing liquid is. I put a sponge in it then I put in a hot dog. Then finally I test if the solution can actually dissolve a diamond!

Dear TAL Did you check for Fluorescence under UV the remaining solutions after these "reactions"? They might fluoresce. Then the solution contains carbon nano dots.
We can also burn diamond in liquid oxygen
If it eats everything, how can you keep it in a beaker?
hi I enjoyed your video, next time just measure the same thing three times before doing anything with it and find the mean aka average of the numbers and the same thing after you do your experiment to be sure that there is something happened.
Thank you.

Great video as always 😊
I would like to point something out:
Diamonds are HARD and not TOUGH.
The difference is:
HARD is resilient to scratches
TOUGH is resilient to breakage
When you said you could easily break a diamond with a hammer, it's because diamonds are actually pretty brittle, this has nothing to do with hardness.
Diamond can engrave and cut almost anything else, but lots of materials would smash diamonds on impact.

Good luck obtaining concentrated sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide
Good luck
@@andreighitescu3993 Fresh Bread it's pretty late yet the battery in your car can give you 28% sulfuric acid which you can concentrate through Destillation. On the other hand H2O2 can be concentrated by mixing it with 95% sulfiric acid which you can make by distilling the car battery acid. The h2o2 you will use will be 30-35% food grade hydrogen peroxide. The way it concentrates is that sulfiric acid is extremely hygroscopic and absorbs the water from the mixture.
U can use HF tho
@@andreighitescu3993 , Lol! You can buy 90%-95% sulfuric acid as a drain cleaner at any nearly department store. I buy mine from Wal-Mart and Lowe's. Also, you can concentrate 3% hydrogen peroxide by heating it to about 175°f and driving the water off or you can buy a 12% solution at any beauty salon as a hair dye. These chems are extremely easy to get or concentrate. You just have to know where to look or what to do to them.

One question.
How do you get rid of the liquid?
hydrogen peroxide degrades over time, so just leaving it exposed to air and light (in a fumehood!) will neutralize it, mostly overnight. To neutralize the Sulfuric acid you can use baking soda, but dilute the acid with a lot of water first.
The peroxide gets consumed and degrades naturally but you can neutralize the acid. Just do it very slowly because there will be a ton of heat. Edit: Just realized someone had already answered, so "what they said" works.
Well, give it to the piranhas! (Sarcastically answer)

Important question, how does one safely dispose of piranha solution?Also what does it do to plastic?
It will dissolve any carbon, plastic is a chain of carbon. To dispose of it you change the pH by adding an alkaline to it, to make it inert.
