Here before the nuclear safety guy does a reaction to the vid
He don't claim to know everything that is nuclear but he can certainly share some knowledge
and yet he still wont check out kreosan, i've asked like 30 times!
same here
what's hid channel @?
Same
honestly the scariest part about this was that you used HF ☠
True. HF is some nasty stuff
"I add a random excess of 48% HF"
"a random excess of HF"
uhhh
@@aaronclair4489 what ever. He did not die
In a glass container no less
You kidding? Do you know how toxic water soluable uranium is?
The uranium play button will be such a cool project
Maybe an enriched one that goes supercritical when you smash it
Then place it in a slow neutron beam and convert into fissible fuel?
@@noimnotarobotcanubeleiveit7024 yes
Not necessarily uranium,
Just make fluorescent glow in the dark
@somerandomuser5155 no it doesn't have to glow uranium doesn't glow on its own. And the flex of having a URANIUM play button is pretty cool because most people think that uranium is the most radioactive thing even tho it isnt
reminder that uranium-238, the most common form of uranium by far, has an extremely low passive radiation level. if you ingest it, you'll be at least a factor of ten more likely to die of heavy metal poisoning than of radiation poisoning. (lead isn't the only poisonous heavy metal, it's just the most common to be exposed to. uranium has similar effects.)
addendum: arsenic, mercury, and the cadmium from cigarette smoke are all also poisons for the same reason as lead and uranium are!
@@somethingforsenroall elements except the lightest in each group are generally toxic to life because they have similar chemistries, but not exactly the same. U238 is about 96-97%, U235 is about 3-4%. Nobody has ever demonstrated any useful amount of nuclear energy, excepting tiny amounts of current in a wire. Heavy elements have complex chemistry because of all the electrons and forms of bonds.
Ah yes, the good old Cody's lab method. I still remember that legendary video.
Refining uranium ore into uranium metal? Yeah, you can still watch a reuploaded version.
Any chemistry video that brings the literal FBI to your house is going to be a banger
Nuclear chem is the whole reason Im back at Uni at 45. Great Video DO MORE!!
Unfortunately not too much stuff I can do, but there are still some fun uranium things to try.
@@Chemiolis make a bomb
Lol, you will come out from uni with purple hair, pierced all over and gender fluid with the pronounce zer / ze.
Plus vote Biden.
@@Chemiolis can u make a mini nuclear 💣
@@Chemioliswhere did you buy this?
Hmm Uranium playbutton? Do ittt
Don’t give him any ideas he still might want to have children someday 😂
I’ll eat it.
I can finally add another video to my ''Blacklisted due to youtube' class action lawsuit
Justice for Cody!
Huh, there is/was a class action lawsuit around uranium videos?
@@Kenionatusit’s a joke brother
The Tetrafluoride is such a beautiful color. My sample of it looks so good sitting next to all the rest of the compounds in my collection. Great video! Thanks for sharing.
does it discolor at all due to daughter nuclei forming or no
@@captainchicky3744 Over a _very_ long timeframe, sure. I can't imagine you'd be able to notice any change over a single lifetime.
Uranium chemistry is so fancy! Great video bro
Are you going to bake some thorium cakes with your cat ears for us?
@@swampmonkey420 maybe UWU
I just wish I could do a video about without the German government fucking me over :/
Plutonium is better. More oxidation states
@@thesciencefurry I dont think that German government is interested by an amateur chemist isolating .20 grams of uranium metal just for the skill.
*We are all on a watchlist now.*
I wish I could do this! But I don't think Australia would like that very much lol
You made a nuke in your older video and austraila didn’t do anything, depleted uranium metal shouldn’t be a problem
@@monika7063that was not him. That was mark rober and kidnapped nirered. He was only trying to follow a tutorial
@@tomaszkarwik6357 I refuse to believe that mr. green and nilered are two different people.
@@monika7063 / unjoke, watch the video again. I was summarising it
Dude, I can not emphasize how frustrated I am about this. I wanted to publish a video like this, but I had to stop it. Because they can fuck you over so fast here in Germany 😤 I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT!!!
For the moment I thought you are colliding two neutron stars or at least supernovae. But it makes more sens you just reducing a metal salt to metal. This is also interesting though. :D
Next video I will be using a nearby neutron star for my synthesis
We need more inorganic chemistry videos 👏
Specifically of uranium ;)
You make this nuclear chemist proud, love to see the uranium dissolve in organic solvents. solvent extraction is amazing.
Nuclear chemist? Make vids!
I am not sure if I should watch the video or start downloading it immediately
Why not both?
Hello FBi. Yes, this guy. Take this guy!
Love seeing this, I work with depleted uranium every day in my lab researching future nuclear fuels, so it’s super cool seeing the process to make the depleted uranium.
Fertile uranium is a wonderful nuclear fuel in a fast reactor. I suspect you can make fuel with it in a CANDU or similar PHWR, but I'm guessing the codes to figure out where to place it and for how long might be a bit complicated.
Wow, nice result! I didn’t expect a very metallic looking product after you described your “heat it in the ampoule” method, but not bad
You’re reaaaaaal close to 100k my man
Uranium play button would be awesome
Also thunderf00t was on the path to make a uranium ring but abandoned that project and i think it would be really interesting to see uranium being casted in a ring shape then machined to clean it up
We’re making it on the watchlist with this one !
I'm going to download this video I remember what happened to Cody!
fascinating material, nice work!
Just what I needed thank you!
What a fascinating video!
Thank you, very useful video.
I love all of the colors involved in the process. I wonder how each step fluoresces...
I see you did the last part cody's lab style! very nice prep man, you should try doing the whole process of extracting uranium from ore, you could even get some radium as well :p
I actually wanted to make a video about that( or maybe I did and took it down, who knows👀) but the government here in germany would probably freak out and ruin me :/
@@thesciencefurry Yeah, Germany is generally radiophobic. Too bad, too, because they dismantled their nuclear plants and switched to coal and Russian gas. Idiots.
Nice priject. What would happen if you electrolyze a uranium or thorium salt solution?
yummy, thanks for the food recipe
Congrats you’re all on a list now
An enriching experience.
Great, we need more. Do thorium next.
great video
great video man
I’m hopefully gonna land a job doing radiochemistry. Sounds like a lot of fun
So did heating the UF4 make a difference between unheated?
I like the title, very nice.
I love uranium chemistry so much.
Good job！amazing！
That Is really nice.
would displace the chlorine work instead of converting UCl4 to UF4 ?
for example, would UCl4 + 4 Na ---> U + 4 NaCl work or not ?
Well done and congratulations on graduating to real (inorganic) chemistry!
So what difference (if any) did the pre-drying step make, and could you measure the shiny piece's density for a crude indication of purity?
TL;DR
Metallic U really does react incredibly quickly with H2O and O2 *AND* N2 gases, such that attempting to cast or re-melt it without a continuous flow of Argon cover gas (or, at a minimum, vaccuum sealing with a very large excess of Li metal and covering the reaction mass in 2-3cm of liquid Li-Na-K-Cs with a suitable flux mixture on top), usually results in a fairly poor yield of multiple small corroded pieces of metal; though even in the best case, where a single metallic mass is obtained, it will be riddled with numerous defects, slag inclusions and poor porosity.
Getting to a solid block of metal that at all resembles the common metallic element samples, is most easily done by cleaning, washing and drying the obtained U granules/shot under an inert atmosphere or under vacuum and then re-melting everything into one solid piece (only using inert and oxide free materials in contact with the U, such as Oxygen Free Copper or Tungsten).
Depleted uranium, health issues and after-war diseases in the countries it has been used as armor-piercing mass projectiles in the documentary "Deadly Dust" (2007) from the German director and filmmaker Frieder Wagner.
Yes Uranium is a heavy metal, where the health issues come from not the radiation.
They say you shouldnt eat of a uranium glazed plate, that is also not because of radiation but due to uranium being a heavy metal and has a rather high toxicity.
The thing is, the only meaningful alternative is a tungsten alloy, which also carries negative health effects.
@@daniellassander The problem is not from eating eat, but from breathing it in. Thatfore deadly dust. Most of the anti-tank missiles produce a hot liquid metal jet, which oxidizes in the air , that is then spread via fine dust particles. All uranium isotopes are radioactive. If you breath it in , than multiple lung and blood injuries may occur. And the dust doesn´t vanish immediately after deployment.
@@ZoonCrypticon Uranium is very weakly radioactive, it's its toxicity that is the danger

when you don't upload a video for a long time, you understand how something will come
Is there a way of isolating the metal that doesn't use bone-hurting juice? (And if you *are* using HF, shouldn't you be doing the reaction in a plastic or passivated-metal container, rather than glassware?)
I researched it a bit and I think the fluoride way is the easiest (unfortunately), Going with UCL4 works too but you need to do the reaction with hexachlopropene which is a bit more complicated. Wikipedia says you can also react calcium and UO3 but I don't think that happens at any reasonable temperature and speed.
Definitely make a play button 😂❤
Depleted uranium is pretty much 238U, which has a longer half-life than the other isotopes! Better for a collection! (Though for most isotopes there’s little practical difference.)
It's videos like this that make me question why I didn't get into nuclear or chemical engineering.
Pls do a cleanup second channel type video. Feels relevant for that one
Noice
Actually they do use Tungsten for armour piercing ammunition.
Tungsten and depleted uranium are both used. Uranium tends to be used for larger munitions but the TH-camr “Oxide” did testing of uranium rifle bullets.
@@chemistryofquestionablequa6252
Mostly, although both Germany and the UK use tungsten in their 120mm APFSDS anti-tank munitions.
It's a few percentage points less effective than DU APFSDS rounds but doesn't come with the same political "baggage" as DU weapons.
@@chemistryofquestionablequa6252
So my comment _should_ say _some_ nations use Tungsten penetrators instead of DU.
Yo we getting out of the reactor with this 🗣🗣🗣
What happens if you try to reduce UCl4 with lithium directly rather than using HF to convert it to the fluoride first?
thanks
Where have you bought the Uranylnitrat?
Question here: he clearly has all the compounds and precursors for several drugs, for example Methamphetamine, @chemiolis are you sometimes tempted to try and make these compounds?
such a pretty blue
I have a significant amount of thorium ore i collected from a local closed thorium prospect. Would you be interested in it at all?
more like this pleasee😢
I did not expect the ANVS would allow us dutch's to handle this, would it be possible to legally make a sub-critical reactor?
I'm not sure if I'm correct but if you bombard the U-238 with neutrons from a neutron source (or even cooler a small fusion reactor) it becomes unstable U-239 & neptunium-239 that decay's with allot of beta decay giving you more heat than power put into it.
Also there would be some plutonium-238 created further helping the reaction but it cannot runaway since it has a sub-critical mass.
I wonder if this is legally and psychically possible on a small lab scale.
its strangely terrifying to me how much of the process really is straight up homestuck green
Awesome!!
Delicious,there’s nothing like home made
A fuel cell play button or if we're really trying to get a friendly knock from your friendly fbi agent make a nuclear reactor play button.
That's exactly what I wanted to make a video about aswell. But I don't because the police would probably come by and take all my equipment and chemicals :/ Idk how it is in the netherland or with your qualifications.
More Uranium pls
More uranium chemistry! We want more! More! More!
I got to see this before the government makes him take it down!!
I think we can safely say that Chemiolis is the Nuclear Chemical TH-camr
Photolytic chlorination of chloroform to carbon tetrachloride next please
That actually seems like a fair amount of gamma for what is a primarily alpha and beta source
Why are the screenshots of this video so fuzzy?
dammit i was trying to do this. Though instead of UF4 I wanted to explore methods using UCL4 instead of UF4 due to its rarity at amateur scales (excluding you ofc haha). Im surprised to find that the nranyl nitrate can be directly used to produce UCL4 , rather than the typical, baking in an oven to make UO3
more uranium please
A video on what you did with all the waste from this would be awesome. Of particular interest would be what you did with what was left over from that "random excess of 48% HF." I have guesses at these things, but those are just guesses.
Just pour it down the toilet. 👌
@@Mobin92Not my problem
He neutralised it with potassium carbonate. End product will be potassium fluoride (KF) which is far less hazardous than HF. Small quantities could probably be disposed to sewer, so long as you can be sure there's no uranium still in there.
Careful.
Its interestyng this video
Cool video. Sadly Cody's original video got him a visit from the feds.
Excellent video.... how about reaching critical mass ???
:D
A bit better way of doing this is to seal it in a stainless steel pipe that is lined with pressed magnesium oxide then fill the center with a mix of UF4 and magnesium. Backfill with argon and seal. Next heat the pipe in an oven till bright yelliw white hot and allow to cool on its own accord. When you open it you will have crumbly MgO, a slag of MgF2 with some uranium in it, and a glob of uranium metal.
Do Methaqualone!
Cody's lab made it from ore before but the video was taken down
Saying depleted uranium isn’t so expensive is a bit misleading, depending on the application. Like with the above stated bullets made from depleted uranium. Those are crazy expensive and super hard to get. It could be more of a regulatory thing but I just know that you don’t see them everyday for a reason.
I’m learning
Next video Uranium enrichment, pls
Do you not think you created more Uranium oxide than Uranium metal? It's just that your kiln barely gets to the temperature than Uranium would melt and it's not under an inert atmosphere. I studied how one might do this in a home lab and the part that seems the hardest to overcome is building the furnace suitable for such a project and then having a big enough amount that the slag can be easily separated from the Uranium metal.
Yeah there’s definitely a bunch of oxides. In the future I want to get a smaller furnace that can go a little bit higher in temperature. This one is really unnecessarily big and it takes a long time to even heat up, got it off an auction. And the radiative heat is of course crazy when opened.
To make uranium I think you need a supernova.
jak zrobic uran wez kawale,k zelaza i obij go nastepnie wymieszaj wegiel z olejem rzepakowym i natluszczaj kawalek bitego zelaza rekami i uderzaj w niego lekko nastepnie do wody z dyrgo nadazotanem dodaj 5g sodku zelaza troche wegle i krzemu i pomieszaj mocno nastepnie zakwas roztwor delikatnie i dodaj kilka ziaren soli dorzuc troche miedzi.
to gotowe. znajdz kawalek metalu o duzym uziemieniu typu blaszka i polóż pod pojemnik z roztworem wrzuc do srodka ten kawalek bitego zelaza tylko najpierw zakwas go kwaskiem cytrynowym i po sekundzie wrzuc do srodka nastepnie jonuj powierzchnie substancji obojetnie jakim napieciem tak wzbogacisz go do dowolnego stopnia o ile ladunek sie nie skonczy
10:07 cracked me tf up lmfao
Where did you even get the Uranyl Nitrate from?
A Bulgarian pottery store. As shown on screen (granted, in very short blips).
@@andersjjensenBulgaria dgaf lol.
@@canadiangemstones7636 People think depleted uranium is somehow "super dangerous and controlled" because it has uranium in the name. But it's no more controlled or dangerous than lead and mercury.
This video makes me think about this guy that got arrested in my home town because he had a RADIUM FOUNTAIN
Are thermal neutrons in this sample's future? 😅
i feel lucky because i can just go outside and literally pick uranium ore up off the ground where i live, but also i feel cursed because there is radon gas everywhere and everyone has a radon gas system that vents their basement every day lol. background radiation here is an extra chest x-ray per 80 years (give or take)
Yes you need to make a radioactive play button
wait oml fluorine chemistry too wow
Episode 2: Enriching Uranium
Episode 3: building the bomb
I have absolutely no need for that radiocode, but I still kind of want one. But I have no use for it ha. I can't justify it.
Are you uranium because I'm Iodine and if it was up to me I would rearrange the periodic table around and put U and I together 😻
Daammm nice
Now you have to teach people how to get uranium from granite.
Just find a pegmatite or greissan .
Otherwise you will need to find a suitable formation , distal to the granite body , which carries water from the source granite , and , serves as a reducing zone allowing the soluble Uranium minerals to drop out of solution .
These account for virtually all the Uranium deposits we know of .
