Haha, yeah i remember that, i was definitely one of the many people that subscribed partly because of the accent. And when i saw him reading the ad, i did wonder if this was actually the first time that i saw him speaking English. It probably isn't, but it did stand out to me. Either way, great to see how close he is to 1 million subscribers, which is pretty insane, when i subscribed he was around the 200K or less, but it has grown quickly during recent years, good for him.

@@doriangray2347 Haha, yeah, i love how he pronounces certain things, like how something easily ignites in the "ear", haha.

His closing: "And if you liked this video, don't forget to give it a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel, to see many more new and interesting." is a classic. But yeah, it was weird to suddenly hear a perfect English speaking voice, which was actually a good choice in terms of reaching a wider audience, but a lot of us took it as him making a concession because he thought his English sucked. His accent is super heavy, but it's not like i don't actually understand what he's saying. It just gives it a geeky charm, instead of a formal and boring English voice, i'm already subscribed to plenty of those channels. We were all happy when he ditched the narrator after only 1 or 2 videos or something, haha, and look at him now, almost near the 1 million.

One thing you forgot to say is that it's extremely difficult to keep hydrogen. I've put some (H2 and D2) in plastic bottles with water at the bottom to seal them and prevent leaks, and the hydrogen managed to escape through the plastic in a few weeks, leaving the bottles strongly compressed as if I had pumped the gas from them.

[@BackYardScience2000]

Yep, it is one of the hardest things to store, period. It sucks because it makes hydrogen fuel harder to do than most other gases and fuels.

[@LiborTinka]

Exactly I wanted to point that out - hydrogen is most efficient fuel per kilogram, but that is huge volume and the only viable means of storage are high compression and/or cryogenic.

[@petevenuti7355]

Helium's the only thing worse, of course it highly depends on what you try and store it in.

[@petevenuti7355]

@@BackYardScience2000 I'm still unclear on hydrides, hydrogen dissolves, forms intercalcenes(fills interstitial spaces) and makes compounds with both ionic and covalent character... Is a hydride just on a spectrum or something? A multi axis gradient of properties? Or is there a better more descriptive terminology? I have an idea to make my own LiH and or LiAlH , dissolve the lithium and or aluminum in gallium and bubble hydrogen through it at about 300°C, and collect hydride precipitate...think that would work?

[@LuisAldamiz]

@@LiborTinka Then how did they manage to get it into zeppelins? I do understand that it tends to leak by all pores and thus very impermeable containers (such as glass) are needed but the reason for compression is only to keep the volume low, what is important for vehicles but not so much for thermogeneration, which can easily enjoy of very large storage tanks, either above ground or underground. Sealing rather than compression seems the key issue.

As astronomer and astrospectrography we use H-alpha and H-Beta with wavelengths of 486.5 nm. Most stars give off Hydrogen, which makes up 73.5% of universe. Typically a perfect precursor in nuclear energy due to the 3 isotopes of Protium, Deuterium, and Tritium. Which decays to Helium - 3 instead Helium 4 which is stable. The constituents of the universe is 25% He of wavelength of 438.7 nm. However band passes through the telescopes or spectrometer. However Hydrogen pretty much bond with other elements. Which makes it the lightest element of the Periodic Table.

Thank you matey, your a great teacher, the hydrogen to electric conversion was very interesting, I wonder why this isn't used for renewable vehicles

[@gogartymike]

It is. Check out the Toyota Mirai as an example. The problem with hydrogen power is that it isn't free energy. You use a lot of electricity to split the hydrogen from the oxygen in water in the first place, so unless that electricity is renewable then the hydrogen isn't either. There are plans to create solar powered hydrogen facilities that can then ship it around the world, but there are difficulties due to the corrosive and volatile nature of it. The hydrogen essentially becomes an electricity carrier where the electricity used at the facility is regenerated elsewhere. It is very clean though. Electricity+water > hydrogen > reactor > electricity+water

[@Sniperboy5551]

@Michael Gogarty The problem with free energy is the fact that it doesn’t exist 😎

[@Bloated_Tony_Danza]

Hydrogen is the smallest element, and because it's so small, it has a remarkable ability to leak through containers. Hydrogen can even leak through solid steel if the steel is dull red hot. Also, hydrogen is the most difficult gas to liquify, it requires extremely high pressures, and extremely low temperatures. Unlike liquid propane which can simply be stored in a steel bottle at 125psi, hydrogen still remains a gas at 7000psi. This means that liquifying hydrogen for more fuel storage is both too expensive for most people to afford, and too dangerous if something goes wrong. (Pressure vessel failures are catastrophic events that are immediate dangers to life and limb) Hydrogen in a way is like electricity, because like electricity, hydrogen first needs to be generated from something else. It's not freely available in the environment. (You literally need to burn water to generate hydrogen) it's very energy intensive. And unfortunately, everything that hydrogen does, fossil fuels can do with much lower cost, much more simplicity, much lower and much safer pressures, and much higher energy density. (More bang for your buck) hydrogen's one and only advantage over fossil fuels is that it does not create CO2. But in today's day and age, the immediate problems of explosive pressures, cryogenic temperatures, unaffordable production costs, and lower energy density outweigh the long term problem of altering the composition of our atmosphere.

Kimberly T. Rails sure gets around. Where to begin, at the beginning, before the beginning? Newtonian laws of force and motion when applied to the angular velocity of a rotating spherical body, when crossed by an implied gravitational force that pulls toward the center mass of the body produces a force vector graph that shows angular velocity at a 90* right angle to gravity unopposed at the poles that changes incrementally at each latitude from 90* unopposed to directly opposed at the equator of the spherical body. The only place where both forces could find balance. Newtonian laws of force and motion predict that if Earth were a spinning sphere with gravity pulling towards its center of mass all unrestricted water on its surface would necessarily have to follow the vector angles produced to the equator and then upward to the point where gravity's fixed and angular velocities increasing forces were equal, but since angular velocity increases with radius it will overtake gravity at some point and propel the water out in a disk and off of the Earth. Now tell me again about gravity and our spinning globe planet with polar seas. Please? Both the laws of physics force and motion and observational evidence easily prove the Earth, whatever it's overall and unknown size and shape, cannot be a rotating ball spiraling through an also impossible vacuum.

[@gigabytegb]

I bought about 150g of gallium in 2019 to test this application but I'm not made much experiences yet. I think that here in Brazil sometimes aluminum can be cheaper than gas because the kilogram price (or lb) trash of aluminium doesn't changes very much if compared to the volatility of petrol barrel and ethanol prices. Here in Brazil the gasoline is sold mixed with 27% of ethanol, the highest in the world 😶 I would like to know some things before grab in my hands my precious and rich gallium bought with my poor money 😂. I would like the correct mass proportion of aluminium and gallium to proceed with the tests, and how can I recovery my gallium lose to gallium oxide? Can I melt the aluminum together the gallium oxide to recovery back to the alloy of gallium/aluminium? And after, how can I separe the gallium mixed in the aluminium? I also would like made thermal machine closed cycle using some gallium alloy to operate inside tubes heating and cooling some gas or a organic steam to accelerates the liquid that's can power with high torque a micro turbine or traveling synchronized with magnetic fields to convert kinetic energy direct to electricity. If someone have a practical project, told me how to do it!

[@LiborTinka]

Well you can start your experiments with much cheaper mercury ... if you dare. Hg is way easier to recover than Ga but you need to be careful about wastes (trace amounts can be removed by ionexes, copper fillings or by sulfide precipitation). Both Ga and Hg are relatively unreactive metals so aluminium can be washed out with weak or dilute strong acids. Bases dissolve aluminium, too, but also Ga as it is also amphoteric. Forget complete recovery of the precious metals, you will likely lose 2-5% in the start and pushing for more complete recovery will drive the cost so much it might be uneconomical. Brauer's "Handbook of preparative inorganic chemistry" says that Gallium is 'difficult' to obtain in metallic form in the laboratory - and that textbook handles crazy unstable compounds and complexes as "easy subjects".

[@petevenuti7355]

Since gallium can be heated to extremely hot temperature, it should be enough that if you bubble methane through it , it should break down to hydrogen and carbon that should reduce the gallium oxide.. enough methane from natural sources shouldn't be hard to get. One of the Issues with that would be getting the oxygen out of the methane. Also, I do not know if that would also react with aluminum, separating the oxides in advance would not be cost effective, but if there's a temperature where gallium oxide reacts with methane and aluminum oxide does not, that might be the way to go... I'm not a chemist yet or I'd calculate the Gibbs free energy, or something like that, to know if it would work.
