I would call that a success. Haven't done the exact math, but for the volumes of the gasses used you couldn't really expect much more sulfuric acid. 20ml of supposedly 90-95% acid is probably around 35g or roughly 1/3 mol. The amount of gases used for a 100% yield would be roughly 7.5L SO2 and 3.75L O2 so just over 11L total. That chamber doesn't look much bigger than 20L perhaps. That's just crude math done in my head after a shot of whiskey so I may be wrong.

As you probably know CO can be mixed with water to make hydrogen and water to make alcohol and hydrocarbons. This stuff is really cool because if fuel (hydrogen) can be derived from CO2 and water, enough industry will pull out alot of CO2 to cool the planet.

Apparently we've gotten pretty good at combining CO2 and H2 together to make formic acid (and formic acid can be decomposed to CO and H2O) so if you're interested in this type of stuff there's a lot of research papers available on the subject if you want to check it out :) And also don't forget about the CO2 + C CO equilibrium, depending on the temp and pressure you can manipulate which way the reaction goes
@nerd1000ify6 жыл бұрын
There's been some discussion of using the Sabatier reaction (CO2 + H2 - -> CH4 + 2H2O) and electrolysis of water (2H2O --> 2H2 + O2) to convert CO2 from the martian atmosphere into methane fuel. The idea is to avoid having to carry enough fuel for a round trip on a manned mission: instead you send an automated fuel plant a few years in advance, and when your astronauts get to Mars there's already a return trip's worth of fuel waiting for them.
@alexpotts65206 жыл бұрын
I've seen variations on this so many times. Since hydrocarbon fuels end up burning to CO2 and water, if you start with those materials, make fuels from them, and then burn them, you'll consume just as much energy making the fuels as you'll release burning them. It's not really an energy source, at best it's a form of energy storage (albeit a potentially useful one). It also doesn't remove CO2 from the atmosphere, since the CO2 returns during the industrial process. The best way to remove CO2 from the atmosphere is photosynthesis. If you care about the environment, plant trees.
@stamasd85006 жыл бұрын
nerd1000ify except that somehow you have to carry to Mars the hydrogen necessary for the reaction- either as H2 or as H2O. I also think the concentration of CO2 on Mars woul make this even more uneconomic.

I read in an old chemistry text book that its possible to start with elemental sulphur, mixed with a smaller amount of sodium of potassium nitrate, ignite the mixture and suspend it in the lead chamber. The sulphur burns, mostly combining with atmospheric oxygen to form SO2, but a small amount is oxidised by the nitrate producing some nitric oxide which is soon oxidised to NO2. From then on it pretty much follows the route in Cody's video. I suspect it might take a lot longer to rub but you dont need any acids to start the process.

I see a lot of people saying this. What country are you from? Something like that is unheard of where I live. Amount of data presented by Cody is a fragment of what is taught in our highschools.

the rougemillenial, nice trolling there. What does this have to do with politics? If you're so keen on dragging that crap into the discussion, maybe you could try to remember how the Bible belt votes, where education, especially in regards to natural sciences, is appaling and close to _shithole_ countries.

-1000 points, using sulfuric acid to make same.

Proof of concept not a production run. I am sure he can find some sulfur to burn and maybe get a little more mercury to play with.

calvingreene90 my chemistry teacher told me that the chamber process, in big batches, is self catalysing. So you can make sulphuric acid using sulphuric acid with sulphuric acid as a catalyst

James Van Daele --- I'm glad you watched the part where he mentions that the point was simply to try to convert SO2 into H2SO4.

Today, sulphuric acid is made on industrial scale by the contact process and that uses sulphuric acid as a starting material. +1000 points.

It's not a problem if you end up with *more* sulphuric acid than you started with.

Obviously not a real chemist; he added water to acid instead of acid to water.

William Ray he's a geologist. But he also tested the acid-water and vice versa and showed that it didn't really make much difference

The hazardous part is just the splashing
@khanch.68076 жыл бұрын
It doesn't matter. The heat of ionization isn't enough to boil water... It's practiced so that people don't splash acid everywhere. And Cody is bit lazy on the safety side of things...

A real chemist knows when he can get away with it and when he shouldn't press his luck. With 5 mils of acid and 100 of water it might get a little warm at best. Not even that in his cold garage.

a real chemist just eats blotters of acid.

Coloradan here with a glass-on-glass tip. My bong has the same kind of connection and I use a butter knife and gently tap the side to "unstick" them. It doesn't take much force at all, and usually only one or two taps to vibrate them loose.

The best part about these vids is the setup straight out of a horror film. Hollywood should let cody do some sets for them.

You said they used to do this reaction in a cathedral size lead lined wooden box. Just thinking how long it would take to make that structure is mind blowing. Great vid yet again. TkEZ»UK
