5 жыл бұрын

In this year’s episode of Explosions&Fire, we attempt the synthesis of the explosive Fulminating Platinum and brown-noses Edmund Davy, only to realize that he played himself. But, as my P.E. teacher always used to say, “If you had fun, you won!”. Not sure if that applies to wasting precious metal compounds, though.

The answer is so obvious! Davy wrote the procedure down correctly and he really did use *nitrous* acid. His supreme mastery of chemistry obviously resulted in him finding the synthesis and use of nitrous acid to be so trivially basic, so as not to even warrant a passing mention of his synthesis of it.

In case you ever want to revisit this again, I've done a bit of digging. Found a couple of contemporary sources that reference the paper in question. "A Dictionary of Chemistry and Mineralogy, with Their Applications" by Andres Ure and "A System of Chemistry: in Four Volumes, Volume 2" by Thomas Thomson. According to them, you were right about using nitric acid, though it may not have needed to be fuming. Davy has also apparently done a bunch of other work with platinum compounds, so there might be some hints in that work as to how to progress from here. Based on these sources claiming he used "potash ley", it's likely they mean potassium hydroxide. Interestingly, apparently no one has ever produced platinum sulfate under modern laboratory conditions (according to a paper from 2015 on the theoretical properties of it), even though Edmund Davy supposedly did so. So it may very well be worth replicating Davy's experiment up to that stage, and testing the product to see if it's really platinum sulfate.

Just found the channel and I love it! Instantly subscribed. I’m an amateur chemist at best but I’d thought I’d throw my hat in the game on the linguistics, see if maybe we can figure out what went wrong. A lot of the chemical names are obviously pretty antiquated - a product of chemistry being a relatively new field. At that time, chemists were still using a lot of old alchemical names for things, which - believe me - was a total mess. Some compounds have like 12 names, sometimes the same name applies to multiple chemicals, and don’t even get me started on all the metaphorical reactions like the green lion or the bleeding sun. Wacky stuff. For example, Iron sulfate is called copperas because they were like “that’s green, must be copper right?” and it stuck for thousands of years. So anyway, here’s my thinking. Good catch on the nitrous acid being fuming nitric - I’m pretty sure you’re spot on there. But I’m almost positive that potash and soda are referring to potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide, respectively. He’s abbreviating the pseudo-chemical names “caustic potash” and “caustic soda” which were prepared by treating the actual carbonate solutions with slaked lime. They were super-common lab ingredients and were abbreviated all the time. Likewise, the kali or whatever was likely period usage for Kalium oxide or potassium oxide, which would obviously deliquesce to the hydroxide upon exposure to air. I’m not sure how dramatically that would have changed the final product, but that’s my best guess for what went wrong. If you’re ever down to try again, I’m down to watch!

It was a nice try! You might pick up "Grandad's Wonderful Book Of Chemistry" or the "Lindsay's Chemical Cross Reference" for some of those older terms. Kalium is potassium, soda is sodium, sodium carbonate is soda ash. You can make simple quality potash by mixing wood ash with water and straining the solids out. Drying and calcining that improve the quality. Heating the crude potash in a crucible to the melting point and pouring it off, will help to get a purer product.

Pretty sure soda can also refer to sodium hidroxide. In any case, I think the white powder is indeed platinum sulfate and to actually form the ammonia complex maybe you'd need to have both the pure ammonia and the hidroxide in the same reaction vessel (I know that's not what the paper says, but maybe Davy didn't quite clean the ammonia so some of it went over to the next reaction). My theory is the hidroxide would be a strong enough base to take the sulphate group from the platinum allowing for the ammonia to step in and for the explosive complex. If the white powder is a nitrate then, indeed, Davy is a god amongst men. Idk my major is in pharmaceutics, not explosives

Hilarious and educational! Love it buddy! I only wonder if the recipe or process got lost in the translation, not that im implying you take up this greuling project again. Or maybe he mistook one element for another because they were just learning what everything is at the time? Great effort regardless, time is money and i don't think i would have the kind of patience chemistry takes! Thanks for sharing your work Sir

Perhaps addiding the NaS directly resulted in inactivating the formation of fulminating platinum? (Aside from other issues?) Just an unlikely hypothesis. Another unlikely hypothesis is that using sodium carbonate, instead of hydroxide, inactivated the process.

I initally tried with just the H2S made PtS2, and also used KOH rather than sodium carbonate during a run, and it didn't seem to change much, but also yes, it still could've changed things, I have no way of knowing for sure without running far too many more tests

Hopefully you then took your platinum waste and made a platinum plating solution out of and then made some platinum mirrors or something. Because if I wanted to do some platinum chemistry, that would be the first thing I would jump to.

Digestion of PtO2 in hot sulfuric (or mineral acids) won't do too great for you. Pinch of chloride or fluoride salt helps with REOs and PGMOs. It's going to be slow. But less slow.

et c. (with the space and the period) Latin 'et cetera' means 'and all the rest'. Having typed that, I've never seen &c before. I can do some Latin but don't know sh*t about chemistry...

@paulgrosse7631 2 жыл бұрын
&c = Et Cetera (aka etc). Typographically, the ampersand is made up from the letters 'e' and 't' to form 'et' which is latin for 'and'. The 'et' form is more visible in some fonts than others.
