Iodine - THE MOST COLOURFUL ELEMENT ON EARTH!

[@JoeA1974]

Your chemistry videos are among my very favorites on KZbin. It is very informative and educational to provide so many demonstrations of an elements properties all in such a succinct and easy to digest video lesson. I am a master plumber and student of all sciences. My chemistry background is minimal but I do know quite enough to see that you are a great teacher. Thank you for your time and knowledge.

[@JoeA1974]

I have learned so much from these videos. I hope they will continue for a long time. I know great educators when I see them. I've only known a few that I call great teachers and you are one of them. I wish you much success and a happy and fulfilling, long career in science.

[@fukpoeslaw3613]

Iodine is my favourite element. I used to have a little when I was a kid; I loved to warm up the silvery flakes and watch the wonderful purple damp. Didn't know it was toxic though.

Richard Wiersma it’s not really toxic, but corrosive

Only the vapor is toxic. If you did that experiment in a closed container there was little to no danger.

Thoisoi: Iodine sublimes Nile Red: No. This is a joke

[@TheMrbunGee]

It does sublime, and it also does melt.

[@thunderthunder6892]

@@TheMrbunGee I know , its just a joke

[@medexamtoolscom]

Actually it can do both, just like ice evaporates. It's just often mistakenly believed that iodine has no liquid state at atmospheric pressure and that isn't true. The reason this myth so easily persists is because when you heat iodine, its gas form very obviously comes out since it is opaque purple, and starts doing so before it is visibly liquid, so people may not notice that it is also liquid because they're so distracted by the overt purple vapor.

You make chemistry so fun, thank you. Keep doing more videos like this.

[@robson6285]

Yes, super interesting!! And with much new knowledge, about iodine i finally saw some new things. Glad i found this new video because iodine is extreme enough and beautifull, and interesting. (I mean: thanx for making this video!)

[@CaveyMoth]

Wow, this is your best video yet. So many experiments, such high production value, and a lot of fascinating knowledge. I work with iodine almost every day, in the form of iodinated x-ray contrast agents.

[@alejolab]

I used iodine + aluminium powder as shown at 8:35 for an art performance. It happened when KZbin was still not a thing (actually 3 days after KZbin started) and It wasn't until recently that I uploaded the performance video to my channel. You can see the chemical reaction in my video at 10:10 I had the powder mixture in a closed container until it was time to use it and it worked perfectly with only a small amount of water. I can't remember how I was able to find the information to do this back then. Nowadays it's great we have people like Thoisoi to show us about cool experiments. When I first watched this video I remembered about my art performance and now I just had to come back to make this comment!

[@extraSPARErib]

During a chemistry lab in high school we had some iodine Crystal available for some experiment. Having read parts of the Anarchist Cookbook I knew about these "concussion bombs" made from iodine with ammonia. I decided to steal some of the iodine by wrapping it up in a piece of paper and put that in my pocket to bring home. Hours later when I left school I reach I to my pocket and pull out this solid purple piece of paper and a purple hand. I realized something and also took off my pants. The iodine had sublimated through the paper, stained my pocket and worst of all left a huge purple stain on my leg too. This stain was DARK and HUGE and was on my leg for a good week or more (I can't recall exactly since ...that was over 20 years ago now) but I will never forget this part of iodine ever as a result.

You missed out turpentine + Iodine... In the veterinary memoir "All Creatures Great and Small", the author's boss said this reaction "drives the iodine deep into the tissues" (he was using it to disinfect a wound in a horse's hoof). When questioned further, he admitted he wasn't so sure...but that massive burst of magenta smoke "impresses the toughest client!"

[@marcviens8590]

Thank you Thoisoi! I rarely have become so excited to SAFELY reproduce chemical expirements as when I absorbed your IODINE! Very well done, and I must admit your accent is the icing on the cake!

[@johnpossum556]

Nice way to cover it from many angles. I've read about nitrogen triiodide but never seen such a large quantity set off.

[@davidk7544]

Wow, I thought I knew the color of Iodine but you showed it has a lot more than I knew. I did make NI3 when I was 'younger' so I thank you for encouraging others not to make the same mistake. I blew the end of my wooden meter stick off, into flying fragments. Very unwise.

[@alexhatfield2987]

Why does iodine look like a metal when its a halogen which makes it a non-metal?

Is there a name for the kind of initial (oxidation I assume)reaction going on with the aluminium/iodine that was triggered by adding the water? Since I believe I've seen other reactions use water to facilitate the reaction but there's no H2O in the formula for the reaction.

[@dumdropdumdrop]

what if concentrations of iodine had to adapt to a process of silicate? giving it dimension like a microcosm in small ratio? im aware its more than that. the adaptive reaction of silicate, nitrogen, and weight measurements seems very complex in a disimiliar properties environment. a greater than ratio scale to chemical reaction? pushing the natural to its outer fringes? reversing the life cycles to ecology, naturality is then redefined. this scientist was employed to verify the atomic weight in composition and correctly identify its composed mineral to solution. however, this scientist was not prepared to verify conscious input from a logic parameter that accepts disimiliar properties, that being natural. what is then data results?

[@medexamtoolscom]

I don't understand something. If iodine easily spontaneously becomes nitrogen tri-iodide in contact with ammonia, and nitrogen tri-iodide certainly spontaneously explodes to separate into nitrogen and iodine and releases energy in the process, and hydrogen and nitrogen combine and release energy to produce ammonia, the 3 things could make a perpetual motion machine. ONE of these 3 reactions must not happen spontanously or release energy, right?
