100% of all liquid nitrogen splash burns are caused by gloves or clothing. The human body is too hot for raw liquid nitrogen to damage from splashing. It immediately forms a vapor barrier that protects you, called the leidenfrost effect. #TheMoreYouKnow

[@SiegePerilousEsauMaltomite]

+Richard Smith Well, if enough was poured on you you could have your skin cooled to frostbite levels, but you are right that when soaked into clothing the potential for burns is drastically increased.

[@rich1051414]

Siege Perilous Notice I said splash. When pouring from a vessel, gloves are really only needed to stave off the frostbite from the cold container. It is not to protect from splashes. It is perfectly safe to have liquid nitrogen splashed on your bare skin, but it is not safe to have liquid nitrogen splash on clothing. All of the burns I have seen have been from gloves, or from getting 'glued' to a vessel containing the liquid nitrogen. The first is caused by having gloves, the second is caused by not having gloves, plus wet hands. :)

"wow, liquid nitrogen is pretty cold" Solid Nitrogen: "Hold my frozen beverage"

[@acedelos2656]

I think it is worth mentioning (and it is also something missing from the video) that by reducing the air pressure, phase point starts to move down (less atm) AND also move left (less temperature) in the phase diagram. This is because total energy need to be preserved, and when liquid vaporizes, energy is taken away by gas nitrogen, thus making the rest liquid cooler.

[@es_for1]

liquids that sublime evaporate on touch with your hand so that the cold liquid becomes gas and expands to create a safety around your hand, if it soaks into your glove on the other hand, that is when it actually really contacts ur hand

[@mike4ty4]

Because actually gloves are _not_ as good as you might think. The natural heat of your body (keep in mind your body is 311 K [amortized and assuming you don't have a fever] and the LN2 is only 77 K. Your body looks like an oven to it) vaporizes small drops very fast and moreover this vapor repels them from the skin so that heat does not efficiently transfer and moreover they can slide off more easily, and as a result there is not enough time or heat transfer to cause frostbite. However, if you have gloves in place then a spill into the gloves, coming between the glove and skin, will actually be much more injurious as the glove will then act to trap the drops against the skin, thus maximizing the heat conduction and then they _will_ cause frostbite. Not a good idea to use gloves! Gloves are better for handling things like dry ice which are solids, not liquid cryogens like LN2.

[@maracachucho8701]

First time I've seen a demonstration with solid nitrogen! Pretty interesting that it can be formed at room temp (although at a low pressure).

[@ksbalaji1287]

Beautiful demo, guys! Thank you!

[@jeremystanger1711]

I think something that wasn't stressed enough in the video (only mentioned very briefly at the beginning), was why the temperature of the nitrogen drops. Pressure only significantly affects boiling point of a liquid, so lowering the pressure in and of itself won't solidify the nitrogen, the temperature of the nitrogen also has to drop for it to reach its triple point. The guy in the video describes the nitrogen as 'creeping along the line,' but if you're reducing pressure alone and the temperature's not changing, then your position on the phase diagram just moves vertically down. So why do you move to the left as well? The reason is that boiling the nitrogen reduces it's temperature. If you put alcohol on your skin it gets very cold, or if you've got a wet patch of skin, then the wet patch will feel cold (especially in the wind). This is because in the process of evaporation, the molecules leaving the liquid and turning in gaseous molecules take kinetic energy with them. The energy each molecule takes is greater than the average kinetic of a molecule in the liquid (gaseous molecules have to move faster than liquid molecules in order to be gases) and so the average kinetic energy of the liquid's molecules drops. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a substance's molecules, and so the temperature has decreased. Boiling the nitrogen under reduced pressure makes the amount of energy it loses due to evaporation greater than the energy it takes in from its surroundings, and so its temperature drops.

[@deathball2331]

Jeremy Stanger he said that the higher average KE molecules are leaving, decreasing the temperature

It would have been more illustrative to use a pressure-temperature phase diagram since in the experiment, pressure is the variable you're controlling.

[@LizardKing1086]

+deepdarkmidnight DDM They did, except that chart they used kind of sucked since most people don't really talk about a vacuum in terms of atmospheric units. The chart was more to do with the triple point of where it exists in dual states at roughly 25 inches of a vacuum, or 2 pounds absolute.

[@TheAce12570]

I don't know about you, but where I live every high school student knows how to convert atmospheres into bars into pascals, it's pretty much considered rudimentary knowledge. And pressure-temperature diagram is exactly what this is. I also don't think it makes sense to use torrs as your unit of measurement, since they are considered outdated and aren't part of the SI system at all, and since the video is obviously aimed at an audience with a very basic knowledge of chemistry, introducing a force which is defined in it's relation to mm of Hg is needlessly complicated.

[@vincentgrippo7696]

Lower pressure lowers boiling point. Since there is less atmosphere pushing down on the liquid, it is easier for particles to escape.

[@TheShoreman1]

+evilro3345 Don't feel bad about being confused. They did not explain the idea that adding pressure creates heat and reducing pressure removes heat very clearly. The temperature change is on the chart but they only very briefly mentioned it.

[@techdaemn]

+evilro3345 +Charles Badstones Look up "heat of vaporization". It is the difference in kinetic energy between vapor and liquid at a constant temperature. It is the amount of energy that will be extracted from the liquid (making it cooler) when it is vaporized, which in this case is induced by lowering the pressure (and thus increasing the boiling temperature). The transition of liquid nitrogen to nitrogen gas extracts that energy from the liquid making it cooler and cooler, until it reaches its own freezing temperature. Same thing can be done with water (bunch of YT videos showing freezing of water at room temperature with vaccuum). It's also why if you wet your finger with water of almost any temperature and blow on it (inducing vaporization), it will feel cooler. The energy is extracted from the water still in contact with your skin. The reverse (converting vapor into liquid) puts the same amount of energy back into the liquid. This is why steam can burn you so fast. It's effectively boiling temp of water + heat of vaporization.

[@x2lazy2die]

+evilro3345 that's exactly what they said in the video. lower atmosphere = lower boiling point is the same as higher pressure = higher boiling point

***** What? I doubt the jar was that cold when he took it off... same for the container. i saw no moisture on either of them meaning they were enot cold. Still he's an idiot for wearing gloves.

[@AluminumOxide]

It’s nice to know there using metric SI units

[@dolfi173]

MUY BUENA DEMOSTRACIÓN

[@jonathant.6229]

Hi, What's the temperature of Gas, Liquid and Solid Nitrogen? Thx!

[@FlinnScientific]

Do a Google search - it's all there! :)

[@insidemechanics]

+FlinnScientific -__- thanks... I guess...

[@jaap66088]

That's a perfect answer, don't act spoiled.

[@insidemechanics]

+DingusDingo not much of a science channel though

[@jaap66088]

Stating determined temperatures has nothing to do with science; making someone find out themselves by giving them the means to has!

[@Ilovejoeyd95]

i fucking fascinated by this,i want to learn this kind of stuff so i can apply it to the performance on automobiles

[@Spartan536]

It has already been applied in a basic sense by automotive performance enthusiasts. Not only through the induction of oxidizers into the intake manifold but also as a freezing agent on intercoolers to bring colder, denser air into the intake to improve combustion efficiency.

[@Indian-from-India]

Excellent Demo...Thanks..!!!

[@christhornley1664]

That was cool in more ways than one!

[@nathansscientificstuff5507]

Haha

[@destinedtobedifferent9921]

It's so dumb when people say liquid nitrogen is one of the coldest things. It's relatively warmer than other things I their liquid state like Oxygen or Helium.

[@destinedtobedifferent9921]

I'm not sure why I capitalized those letters.

[@VolantisAcedia]

+BLUEDRAGONFLY Well its not like, "dumb"

[@germas369]

+BLUEDRAGONFLY you can use liquid nitrogen to condense oxygen gas to form liquid oxygen. its possible since it has a lower boiling point so practically liquid nitrogen would be colder than liquid oxygen. Any nitrogen which reaches the boiling point is boiled away, and since oxygen boiling point is higher, any liquid oxygen you have left is of higher temperature than the liquid nitrogen.

[@EpicXXProductions]

+BLUEDRAGONFLY How would oxygen with a pair in its p orbitals and a double bonded diatomic structure have a lower boiling point than nitrogen which has no pairs in its p orbitals and a triple bond diatomic structure?

[@Zahlenteufel1]

lowering the boiling point and getting it to freeze is so counter intuitive! i mean i get it but its hella counter intuitive...

[@jessiejanson1528]

boiling isnt so much temp related as its just "air that appears out of a liquid" it can boil while hot or cold if you think of it that way. So if you lower the pressure its trying to pull the air from the liquid itself so it in effect boils. though changing the temp of a liquid can make it so that the air in that liquid is easier able to escape into the atmosphere. when its hot enough.

[@Philphy]

Jessie Janson actually I need to clear up that misconception, whilst you are correct in assuming that oxygen and any other gas in a liquid becomes less soluble as temperature increases, boiling is actually defined as the point where the liquid becomes a gas and forms bubbles which have enough pressure to counteract atmospheric pressure and thus rise to the surface of the liquid.

[@HockeyCrab]

Imagine how fast I could chill my drink with that

[@Frankyyodi]

Awesome Lecturer....

[@AB-st4gf]

How to make solid nitrogen = freeze it

[@zedooncadhz]

Higher altitude = lower atmosphere pressure. He needs to be more precise if hes not gna confuse people he said "at a higher atmosphere"

[@RagingDong]

zedooncadhz Presure is measured in atmospheres. So he is fucked up the explanation

[@coropixel4975]

RagingDong Pressure is measured in PSI, pounds per square inch. Did... did you even pass physics?

[@RagingDong]

CoroPixel Im an engineer. Just google pressure measurements. It can be in psi, atm, bar, pascals. torr. Have you even passed A Level physics. Fucking dickweed. if your going to be a smartarse, at least be correct about it.

[@coropixel4975]

RagingDong Nice google work, there. Especially considering you said that pressure was only measured in atm.

[@RagingDong]

CoroPixel No. No i didnt.

[@NutsS9]

if my science/chemistry classes were like this i wouldnt be bored

[@reyachrai5810]

That's cool, Nice experiment guy y'all have shown great effort.👍👍👍
