I found out today that you should not add acetone into this solution. It creates acetone peroxide which is a primary high explosive. I just got done neutralizing the compound with loads of sodium carbonate. I probably went overkill, but I don't like dealing with high explosives. They are so easy to accidentally make.
Question! What concentration H2O2 are you using? If the maximum concentration I am allowed to use is 3%, would I still be able to complete the reaction within the apparent 8min time frame of this video? What is the effect of using differing concentrations of Fe2+? Could this be a legitimate experiment in a school chemistry lab?
@@LiborTinka be wary using a chloride salt as some ions in solution can have inhibitive effects on Fenton reactions. Perhaps not a big issue for a visual demonstration like this but definitely something you'll need to consider if looking at reaction kinetics
Great work. I'll do this in my classes now too.
Very nice well done
Thank you! I'll use this in my classes too!
What compound did you use for the iron(II)? I was wondering since I am doing the same experiment but I used ferrous sulfate for my iron ions.
Could you please tell the amount of each substance you put into the test tubes?
basically eye-balling

I think I just read about that in the Shakhashiri demo book
@@APphyzicks could i get the book?
youre amazing
van you please write thé réactifs ans thé steps of this manipulation

This is the kit used, I believe it's 8% peroxide www.flinnsci.com/fentons-reagent---chemical-demonstration-kit/ap7435/#variantDetails
Thank you!
at 30 sec it looks like it is 3% H2O2?
What is your iron(II)? what is the name of your iron(II) if i wanted to buy some?
iron(II) sulfate (ferrous sulfate, FeSO4) is commonly used, but I guess any soluble iron(II) salt will do (e.g. chloride).
