Silver Nitrate
Added 2016-08-31 16:45:04 +0000 UTCThis is the last video for the month! There should be some cool ones coming up next month. I have only now gotten through my backlog of videos. I have been only editing for the last 2 months...I am kind of sick of it.
I want to get back to doing practical things! I really hope I am able to distill my mercury this month.

Hello Guys. Nice to be here. :) please, how many grams of silver nitrate it produces with those 60 grams of silver? I want to produce Silver Nitrate to use in silver plating painting. Thank you :)

2016-09-10 22:37:53 +0000 UTCI did a while ago but I lost the file! Haha

2016-09-04 22:13:52 +0000 UTCGreat stuff :) thanks! Have you began to collect questions for Q&A video?
2016-09-04 14:08:52 +0000 UTCcool, those are some pretty easy to get ones! I personally am a fan of lavender. Maybe Ill do that. Ill add it to the list. No promises if/when itll be done though. My list is huge (and very disorganized)

2016-09-02 16:52:16 +0000 UTCRosemary or lavender is what I want to try, mostly because I have heaps of it.
2016-09-02 05:24:22 +0000 UTCYup I have one. Not sure what would be cool to extract though

2016-09-02 02:38:50 +0000 UTCYou could use a Soxhlet extractor for that if you have one.
2016-09-01 06:34:24 +0000 UTCIt makes silver acetylide, a heat- and shock-sensitive high explosive. Probably not a good idea....

2016-09-01 00:35:17 +0000 UTC68% is also 15 molar. Above technical grade and reagent grade you can get fuming nitric acid. It's considered FNA above 86%. You will see most samples around 86% to 90%. 21.4 molar solution would be 90%. Anhydrous nitric acid is classified as either Red Fuming Nitric Acid or White Fuming Nitric Acid. RFNA is usually around 97% or so, WFNA is closer to 99% to 99.9% or 24 molar.
2016-08-31 23:18:06 +0000 UTCHey Carl. "Concentrated" is the standard term for 68%. Concentrated HNO3 is the same as 68% or it may be labeled technical grade. These are synonymous. If you purchase commercially available nitric acid it is almost always 68% or right around there. The commercially available stuff is just the water/nitric acid azeotrope which has a concentration of 68% HNO3. It does degrade over time so it can vary by a few percentage points in practice. Reagent grade is specified as 70%.
2016-08-31 23:07:04 +0000 UTCooo that could be fun! I have to film a whole crapton of stuff in the coming weeks. So maybe that will be one

2016-08-31 19:06:41 +0000 UTCThat is true. Also, I am honestly not 100% sure. It is probably around 65%. It varies a little and I am not sure my bottles says

2016-08-31 19:06:18 +0000 UTCNever heard of doing that. If it makes something cool though, I can do it. What does it make?

2016-08-31 19:05:18 +0000 UTCSuggest: distillation of flowers to gather the fragrant oils?
2016-08-31 17:52:15 +0000 UTCAs always, a great video: Suggest that when you note a "Concentrated" solution the percentage amount should be noted as well. i.e. "Concentrated Sulfuric acid" has different concentration. In this video, what is the call out percent for your "concentrated nitric acid"?
2016-08-31 17:44:18 +0000 UTCI read that bubbling acetylene through a 10% solution of silver nitrate produces some entertaining stuff. ;-)
