If they ever find Cody dead it's going to take a whole team of scientists to figure out what the hell he was doing.

3:51 we all know Cody’s no “Bob Ross” when it comes to art but that’s a cracking picture of two wizards casting spells at each other!

“As long as I keep it cool and go slow this should be a relatively simple task...” Literally 2 seconds later “So I just broke three of these flasks.”

Finished drawing looks likes wizard casting a spell on another wizard.

5:48 "as long as I keep it cool and go slow this should be relatively a simple task" immediatly afterwards "so I just broke 3 of these flasks" such a comedic cut lmao

Bletch: Intentional mispronunciation of bleach in order to boost comment numbers. ;)

your diagram looks like two wizards battling

Cody's ventilation system: The whisper 5000

Before watching video. "Ok cody what ridiculously dangerous thing are you going to do today."

*This is the same process that the Clorox company once used to make their **_bletch_*

And in this episode Cody violates the Geneva convention.

Cody is ambidextrous because his handwriting is equally atrocious with either hand lmao. (Just teasing, love ya, Cody!)

Where can I buy this "Bletch"?

When Cody says something is a bit concerning.........run.

Hey Cody, since you have both caesium and gold lying around, you should try to make caesium auride. It would be a first on youtube.

0:50 witches 2:30 witches making potion for some satanic ritual

So I've never liked the "Mad Scientist" stereotype because I think it gives scientists a bad name, but then I watch Cody's videos and I think no, Mad Science is a perfect label for this.

oh my god, he made a concentrated solution of sodium chloride.... demonetized

This is one of the top five coolest Cody’s lab videos. Many aspects of chemistry are exemplified here. I love it when he says “it shoooould work?”

You shouldn't need to worry about oxygen being generated when using a platinum electrode. While the theoretical voltage needed to generate oxygen (1.23 volts) is lower than that of chlorine (1.36 volts), on a platinum surface the evolution of oxygen is actually around 0.95 volts more than is thermodynamically required, compared to about 0.10 volts more for chlorine. This makes the overall potential required for generating chlorine 1.46 volts, and makes oxygen's 2.18 volts. Along with the fact that there are a LOT of chloride ions in solution to react with, this should mean that chlorine will be favoured for the anode reaction by a large margin. Unless you run the cell at a crazily high current density, or let the concentration of the chloride ion drop very low, there should be virtually no oxygen generated from the cell.

Teach us how to separate holy water from regular water

Bleach/Chlorine gas scares me. The feeling of my lungs after inhaling that crap from an accident. IT ONLY TAKES ONE TIME TO SCARE YOU.

Try to collect this chlorine gas in a glass tube, liquify it with liquid nitrogen and heat seal the glass tube like you did in your previous video and that will be next level element collection...😎😮

Triangular beakers, also known as "flasks"...

I love the way you made the pump. You are a real life MacGyver.

*about to go to bed* *cody makes a video*

Cody, put your fume hood fan motor OUTSIDE while keeping the air suction in the hood to REDUCE FAN NOISE please

I love your channel and it has inspired me to start perusing chemistry as a occupation and hobby.

The proof of his knowledge when it comes to chemistry is proven by his unreadable writing and terrifying diagrams. Not wasting time or brain power on being tidy, that's why it is often a characteristic of skilled scientists.

When Cody said sodium chloride all I could think about was Jimmy Neutron.

I feel incredibly dense every time you say "of course, we need to..." as if it doesn't really need explaining. I'd love to pretend I had a clue what you're talking about, but I love watching these anyway. Masterful content creator.

Acrylic plastic is good with chlorine. I found this out by looking at a Chemical Resistance chart for acrylic and using it in a chlorine/ hydrogen generator based on the Diaphragm cell. Your MHD pump was genius!

Playing with Chlorine? this is Cody alright.

To those that understand the "blech" reference... true fans!!

I work on pools. At the very beginning when you were explaining what you were making on the white board I had a wave of joy come over me when I realized "Oh my goodness, he's making a salt cell!"

Clorox is my favorite brand of beverage. Their stuff always has this kick in the flavor that I can't quite put my finger on, and whenever I drink it, it's like drinking a sleeping potion that teleports me to Dreamland. I will say that Dreamland looks more like an ICU than I expected but it's pretty sweet! Too bad the Dreamland guardians won't let me leave my special bed, though.

Cody, you are the inspiration behind my channel. Thank you for teaching me so many things. I am only 100 subs off of 2k and if it were not for you, I would have never grown to love science and thus my channel would have never been created.

"i can already smell the chlorine so Im just going to plug in my ventilation fan" *jet engine starts*

Being only fifteen and in highschool, I have no idea what any of the diagrams mean, but your videos have exceptional quality and that makes it interesting. Thanks Cody!

5:48 "As long as I keep it cool and go slow, this should be a simple task" ... "so I just broke three of these flasks" comedic timing A+

"Maybe I'll just invent my own kind of pump" ... That reminds me: how's going the fusion reactor? XDXD (it was fusion and not fission, I think... because I remember it being the more crazy of the 2 to announce calmly)

2:05 wizard left and priest on the right.

Awesome! Thanks for giving the introduction explaining the process. It makes a lot more sense now than it did in the first edit.

That pump is too cool. Thumbs up Cody, thanks for the video.

Your existence is partially why I applied for chemical engineering.

possitively GAStly if your pulling a vacuum shouldn't it be negitively GAStly

Great video Cody. Man you are a knowledgeable young man. I love your work even though most of the stuff you do I have done before your means of improvisation astounds me. Great work man. Thanks for sharing.

You are so advanced now, it blows my mind. Straight genius... I love you, homie... Keep up the amazing content. And please, be careful.

Hello Cody, Have you considered building a membrane electrodialysis device (could be used for other chemicals)? I got a contact in china that can sell small amounts of anionic or cationic membranes (very difficult to find, took me ages), let me know if you are interested. Thumb up so he can see it.

What's the point of the mercury and the pump, why not just use a Hofmann apparatus?

This was definitely one of the best videos, I love all the custom stuff, especially when it looks way too jankey to ever work but then somehow dose the job perfectly fine.

Hi Cody. I'm loving your chemistry videos. The subject went over my head way back in my school days but your description of the processes makes me fascinated in chemistry again. I hope you inspire a great many new students. Keep it up dude!

I work as a lifeguard and made chlorine gas by accident today and everyone had to go doctors (everybody is fine) and now I look on KZfaq and Cody is casually making it for fun what a legend 😂

Making blehch in triangular beakers.... let me guess, you're gonna use some 'luminum too at some point? (｡･ω´･｡）

You've outdone yourself, Cody. Fantastic ingenuity!

one of my favorite videos from you so far

"Blehtch" - Now I can't say "Blee-ch" any longer. Thanks Cody!!

Glad to see you on Everyday Astronaut's livestream :)

Fascinating from start to finish.

this is why i subscribed to this channel, chemistry demo at it's best. awesome Cody!!!

Sorry i only get off brand BLECH

Bletch, is that a Utah thing or what? 😂

Cody, firstly I love your channel and your content. I hardly ever comment on videos, but I felt compelled to say that I think it would be awesome to see you build a DIY NMR spectrometer using the Earth's magnetic field! I can't think of a better youtuber for this kind of project. Please don't stop doing what you're doing.

Love all your vids man, specially these ones!

He said blech lol......but way cool as always! Are you really sure that pump is sufficiently circulating that mercury ? I wish you explained that part better. I'm sure there's some solid principles at work there but IDK. I know you said it doesn't need to be a strong pump which it certainly isn't. But it looks like it might circulate it once per year. You should maybe test that.

Most people think it's "bletch", some think "blech", and a minority think "blehch"; but we all know it's "bhlhehtchh"

Just came here from a video on magnetohydrodynanics. Literally what you suggested, using an electromagnet to propel liquid metal. If its a thing in big industry, it should be a thing in Cody's Lab

@2:00 “And that should do it.” Love how this is so simple to you. Like, no big deal. Let me just go grab these things from my garage. You make working with these chemicals seem so simple. Not down playing what you do, just think it’s funny.

bletch?

Greeting from my Vacation in the Netherlands!

One of your best videos so far

I have no idea what Cody just did. I just like watching people that know what they're doing with chemistry. :)

The instant you said you needed a pump to move Mercury, I was like "Okay, so set up a b-field and have at it railgun-style!" That sort of thing works for NaK as well; Periodic Videos even illustrated such an apparatus.

The most surprising thing that Cody Don has ever done is saying bleach like Bletch

BLETCH! One of my most favorite anime series! Thanks for the mention @Cody'sLab!!

This is so cool, thank you Cody!

Would there be a practical way to recover the sodium in its metallic form?

Cody,i am quite confused about mercury... i have wondered for a long time about its dangers,in your video of flushing mercury down a toilet,you touched the mercury and was only worried about having cuts on your hands,but in 2015 you made a video on how to treat a mercury spill,and you treated it a lot more seriously...when is mercury dangerous and when isnt it?

“so as long as i keep it cool and go slow, this should be a relatively simple task” *next frame* “so i broke 3 of these flasks”

you know it's good content when a 1.5M subs channel is still making 2005-looking content this year

Is there a specific reason he says blech instead of bleach?

Could this be used to extract bromine from sodium bromide?

Awesome apparatus dude! You rock

Thanks Cody. very interesting !!!!

0:21 So I've heard Cody say "Blech" instead of "Bleach" before too. Is that a regionalism or a joke? Does anyone ever actually say it that way?

whats the intro music?

Very ingenious lab apparatus. I didn't fully understood that flat 'sputnik' like 4-ways pump, but I found it cool and all worked nicely. Chem is try.

I really appreciate you Cody.

Sup you my inspiration im 17 started watching last year you inspired me to be a chemist

Cody's Lab or Cody Slab?

I have a degree in chemistry, conducted 2 years of research in organic chemistry, tutored chemistry, worked in the analytical field for 5 years and I feel like an idiot watching Cody's videos. Very envious of the way your brain works, sir.

Interesting experiment!! This certainly helped me in understanding how electrodes work :) thanks for the video, cody.

So did anyone lay a bet on chlorine poisoning? It's running at 10/1 even.

Yay Edit : I love your videos

we have a couple of old gold mines in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The Ropes and the Michigan National!

Thanks for the science, Cody. Applied science is especially fun from you. Keep rocking, brother.

to make their bletch

Cody makes a mess, so you don't have to.

Cody's Lab. The only channel on youtube where the guy literally invents his own hardware specifically for his own experiments. You're a fuckin genius, Cody.

I use a dremel tool and diamond burr to make holes into glassware. Works very well.
