[@lukekarl1259]

I love how u say simple

[@BackMacSci]

+luke karl Is it that different?😂

[@clovenbeast5183]

When I did that years back I don't know if I just used too much potassium Iodide or what but that reaction took off and it was boiling with huge purple clouds and I lost most of it because I heated up so much in the backyard

[@BackMacSci]

Hmmm did you use 30% hydrogen peroxide or have either of the solutions heated? Those would be my guesses as to why the reaction ranaway.

[@clovenbeast5183]

@@BackMacSci yeah I think I had 30% hydrogen peroxide. It's been years ago I just know that it heated up real quick lol

[@clovenbeast5183]

Probably didn't help that it was like 4 oz worth of potassium iodide

[@BackMacSci]

@@clovenbeast5183 OOOF I hate when I use a bunch of a chemical and the reaction doesn't work how you want it to. But I bet that iodine cloud was a memory you'll never forget!

[@susanlongaphie9636]

hi, loved the video. Can you use muriatic acid instead?

[@BackMacSci]

Muriatic acid is another name for Hydrochloric acid, so yes!

[@zacharysinger5370]

Dry it under Sulfuric Acid by melting it, then pouring the sulfuric acid off!

[@ЯрославТаран-ъ6л]

can i use 15% hydrochloric acid?

[@BackMacSci]

Yes, you’ll just have to use a different amount of the acid

[@muzamilkhan9777]

hi dear sir if you have another cheap way i want make iodine if you give me cheap praice mathed i well pay you your fess thanks

[@BackMacSci]

Hello, there are other ways that involve buying iodine tincture from a pharmacy or convenience store and using acid and peroxide like i did in this video. That method makes small quantities of iodine, but i'm not sure if it's cheaper. Why do you want to make iodine?
