@Amateur Chemistry You can also get sulfuric acid by electrolysing an aqueous copper(II) sulfate with a copper cathode and an inert anode like lead dioxide, carbon, platinum, etc... And also don´t use any metal or alloy that reacts with sulfuric acid to collect it like that steel pot! Use something made of glass, for example, instead.

While more time consuming, it would in theory be cheaper to distill pool pH lowering liquid. It's 14,9% and can be bought for around 40€ per 20kg canister. Starting with the 37% battery acid is easier, but you pay more money for less concentrated acid since batteries aren't especially cheap.

The EU laws prohibiting access to chemicals are ridiculous and put hobbyist chemists under general suspicion. I'd go as far as to argue that they violate the EU human rights charta, since the negative implications of these measures are way out of proportion to their capability of "reducing crime and terrorism". Many folks born between the 60s and mid-80s got into chemistry and science by experimenting in their sheds - this is now ciminalized and creates a massive lost opportunity in getting future generations engaged into the matter :( Brussels would even prohibit baking soda and vinegar if it could.

10:10 high concentration and hot ZnCl2 in water and / or HCl (around 60% zinc by weight iirc) also "dissolves" cellulose (all I can obtain is a VERY dark thing but I'm sure something useful can probably be made of it) I'm experimenting with it these days it's a fun chemical EDIT: I've just performed the experiment again: with fewer heat ZnCl2 (aq.) really dissolves cellulose at around 80C. I have no idea what this can be used for though obviously. ZnCl2 has an insane boiling point even in solution (like 300C at 50%), so it carbonises cellulose insanely well when hot - my gut feeling is that this very fine carbon mesh (mess?) is probably useful to something.

@milanhlavacek6730 Ай бұрын
I dont that would be a safe or even viable procedure due to the explosive nature of hydrogen. Much better is to just electrolyse CuSo4. A copper negative electrode, graphite positive and you get H2SO4 in solution, copper metal at the negative electrode and oxygen on the positive. Though take my advice with a grain of salt, i have done this reaction only once and have not measured the resulting purity. It did crystalize a lot of copper on the negative electrode though so i do believe the reaction went through.

The lead contamination in the electrolyte is completely non-volatile, it's mostly lead sulfate
@lagrangiankid378 3 ай бұрын
Lead (II) sulfate has a melting point of 1087°C and it decomposes at higher temperatures without ever boiling, elemental lead boils at 1749°C. So no, any sensible contamination in the receiving flask at 337°C is highly unlikely and unsignificant, even though you should probably check vapor pressure data for extra safety.

@@triple_gem_shining “And btw…” not my point. I’m not questioning his work or the validity of what you’ve stated. He could have said something like “the purest attainable” and been more accurate with his title on the video. So I’m bored, what else is new. 😂

I wrote it like that in the title so it is easy to quickly read, and I know that it can be a bit misguiding but what I wanted to convey is that I made sulfuric acid without any contaminants with the concnetration of 98% in water which I don't count as a contaminant

The only conclusion is rather simple. To extract the diluted sulfuric acid by evaporating the water content by boiling at 100C and get 98% sulfuric acid. The video was very long for this content

does not work like that, you need way over 100 Celsius, due to the high stregth of the bond between H2SO4 and H2O molecules. Even at 300 Celsius, the acid is not 98%, only when it reaches the boiling point of the azeotrope will it be 98% (actually, 98.3%).

You bought this battery for fuckin 200zł and then destroyed it lol You could just buy car battery electrolyte here in Poland (i bought 5l for 60zł) Also I distilled h2so4 when I was 14 so it's not a big deal

I know that, but I did that just to show people that it can be done. Also distilling sulfuric acid is a big deal, its incredibly dangerous and can seriously hurt you if you are not careful

It definitely is a big deal, you were probably just a dumb and careless kid...
