Great video, but I had a few questions. 1. Does water dissolve the yellow precipitate? I know you use hydrochloric acid to rinse when you work with PGMs salts. 2. Would converting the silver nitrate to silver chloride been a bit easier to separate from the PGMs? I do get that the method makes a lot more waste, but could allow you to isolate the other metals more efficiently.
@apveening
@apveening Жыл бұрын
As it takes AR to dissolve PGMs, I suspect (but don't know for sure anymore) that PdCl is soluble. If so, I would precipitate the Ag with HCl, which is already one of the standard steps in refining it, leaving the Pd in solution

I've been wanting to see this phase of the process for some time---recovering the ugly silver from the anode baskets. It's clearly not easy. I don't recall your having covered this phase before. And it also should be said that it reduces your silver yield, or said differently, ties up silver from your gross yield. I wonder if there is a melting solution to this issue. I have not checked the melting point of Pd or Pt nitrates, but Pd and Pt metals melt much, much higher than silver. In my estimation, unless you see some big problem with it, it would be worth it to take two anode baskets full of that ugly stuff and cornflake it.

I forgot to mention the other day there is a healthy collectors market for Electrum. You will have no problem selling small Electrum buttons for the same price as 9999 gold plus a premium. People like it because of its history in ancient coinage and jewelers love it as do mineral collectors. Its hard to find someone to make it from pure gold and pure silver. Being man made is no problem to collectors. Might be a market for you.

Cool Chemistry!! Your best bet to separate the elemental silver from Pd(DMG)2 is to dissolve the Pd complex in hot ethanol or acetone -- the Ag should stay behind and be filtered off, and the Pd complex will recrystallize from the ethanol or acetone when you add some water Good Luck!!

You should be able to end up with a clean 99+% palladium salt cake with almost no silver. It's a fascinating problem. I can only say that the possibility of encapsulation of silver chloride is possible and there are many other optional possibilities. It is important to add the DMG slowly with plenty of sheer mixing but I'd not expect significant silver in the salt cake.

It looks like the majority of your anode slimes (the gray power after removing the silver shot) was cement silver. So I'm wondering where it all came from. Your silver starts as shot with no power. It dissolves in the electrolyte when oxidized by the current. Most of it travels to the cathode bowl, but why is so much precipitating out in the anode basket? What could be reducing it there at the same electrode where it oxidized? My guess is that it's the copper impurity in your silver shot. We might expect all the copper to be oxidized by the electric current along with the silver. but as each copper atom is exposed (as the around it dissolves) there is a chance it will be oxidized by Ag+ ions, creating cement silver. So it would be worthwhile to reduce the copper content of your silver shot. Obviously, the Cu comes from the CuNO3 solution that the silver cements out of. Now CuNO3 is super soluble in water, and you wash the cement silver with boiling water. But it still contains some copper because we see the electrolyte turn blue. The human eye is not very sensitive to blue. Maybe rinsing until you can't see the blue tint isn't good enough. In a research lab you would use optical spectroscopy to verify the last rinse is clear. You could do something like that in your home lab, with just a white light, a photocell, and a volt meter. By comparing clean water to your rinse water you should measure less voltage from the photocell when there's copper in solution. It might be even easier to detect the copper ions fro the conductivity of the water. Pure distilled water doesn't conduct at all well, and any ions in solution will increase the conductivity immensely. Second, I would suggest boiling your cement silver in distilled water after rinsing (just like you do with your gold precipitate). And third, I suggest your rinse the silver with ammonia. If some of the CuNO3 is stuck to the silver surface the ammonia should release it.

@alanpecherer5705
@alanpecherer5705 Жыл бұрын
I can hardly see that being worth it. Copper in the form of wire or pipe is remarkably chemically pure, usually well over 99%, and certainly very cheap compared to silver, much less gold. And melting copper (in air) results in this scabby, oxidized surface. Whatever would be required to obtain clean bright copper from either the stockpot or the cementing, whether fuel to melt or nitric, I can't see the effort being worth it. I don't know whether the scabby copper from melting in air would be suitable for Sreetips use. I could definitely be wrong, but he's got enough farting around with chemicals as it is.

I would have sworn you’d know better, but maybe you were simply experimenting or being curious with the DMG prior to au drop?

Do you take notes on how each experiment goes and try to improve/streamline the process for stuff like the stockpot series or gold filled/gold filled inquartation experiments?

To remove the silver coating on your beakers, do you just boil a little nitric acid in them?

I'm pretty sure there is Paladium in the solution you threw the Copper pipe in. It will plate out now. You had to test it for Paladium.

That’s ok, any palladium will cement out on the copper. Then we’ll run it through the silver cell again. Those PGMs are very uncooperative. You can never get it all. And you can never get a 100% separation.

@@sreetips Yes ofcourse it won't be lost, but I thought it would be better to get as much Palladium out of the waste stream as possible beacause it will reduce work, time and recources. I would have done a second DMG percipitation. The deep dark green colour was ofcourse a hint. I get it that there was probably also some coloidial PGM in there that made the colour so dark. I really like these vids. It also puts the brain to work again to follow what's going on. Very curious what the yields will be.

You might want to precipitate the silver before the palladium

Would redissolving (the palladium/silver precipitate) with Nitric Acid, and re-precipitating the palladium with DMG work? Edit: Teach me to comment before I watch the whole video! *laughs*

That makes me wonder if converting it to silver chloride might make it easier to separate. From a brief glance at Wikipedia, palladium will form a chloride, but it needs aqua regia or dissolved chlorine gas to really do that. PdCl2 also dissolves better in cold water, whereas AgCl likes hot water. PdCl can also be dissolved in organic solvents. If what you're doing now doesn't work, maybe try ice cold HCl to extract the Pd. Or listen to someone who actually knows what they're doing, that's not me lol.

Couldn't you just boil it in distilled water, metallic silver is insoluble in water where as salts are.....
