How small can you make a magnetic alloy material that still holds its magnetic properties? 🤔 Is it alloy specific or is there a general rule of thumb like molar reactions or stoichiometric reactions?

I would cut down on the math and just focus on the chemistry and analyses, man. Ofcourse you can still tell about your expected yield and quickly show how you calculated it, but I wouldn't spend minutes explaining it. People who don't know chemistry also won't care about the math and people who do know chemistry should already know how to get to the same results of your calculations. Good video nonetheless!

I appreciate your feedback! My goal is to go beyond the surface and explain why things happen, making the science accessible and meaningful for everyone. While many chemistry channels focus on the 'what' and 'how,' I believe understanding the underlying math and principles adds real value. For those already familiar with the calculations, they can skip ahead, but for others, this context might be what helps it click. To me, glossing over the 'why' misses the heart of what makes chemistry fascinating.

It's refreshing to have one of these channels explain concepts such as molarity and running through the calculations. I taught undergraduate chemistry previously and even then, lots of students struggled with these concepts. Thanks for outlining them in a clear and interesting way!
@mackdog3270Күн бұрын
I appreciate the explanation of molarity/moles. I don't pretend to be able to sit down and whip out a molarity calculation, my mathfu isn't that strong, but having a general idea of what's going on is useful in a demonstration. 👍

Though it is water-soluble, vitamin B12 is not excreted immediately like other water-soluble vitamins. There are specific B12 absorption pathways and storage mechanisms. A healthy liver will have 3 to 5 years worth of B12 stored. The dayglo human gold water comes from riboflavin, vitamin B2.

I chose aqua regia for the B12 analysis because it’s consistently recommended in the literature. I also had plenty on hand, so availability wasn’t a concern, and it worked very well for this purpose. By contrast, sulfuric acid used in piranha has a much higher boiling point, making it time-consuming and more hazardous to reduce to dryness. Overall, aqua regia was the most practical and effective option.

He got almost 20% yield. Some of the processes could be improved. Of course, most research has gone into synthesising it rather than using it as an ore for an easily obtained metal.

Most was lost in the thermite reaction, if I was todo an electrolytic reduction method the yield would be much higher.
