TiH2: Titanium (II) hydride. Solid hydrogen solution

[@tomlynx8090]

Your videos and demonstrations are always of excellent quality, you work hard on this channel and it shows. Thank you for all the awesome chemistry videos! :)

[@ChemicalForce]

Thank you for viewing my channel! Glad you noticed my face sweat :)

[@Wunderbred66]

When I first saw this channel I thought "wow, this is neat, but its going to get old fast, an explosion is an explosion". well I couldn't have been more wrong. You hear in school about things that don't mix or react violently but you never get to see the results. Sometimes it leaves you thinking "that sounds awesome to see, I wish I could" Well that is what you are doing, all the reactions we are told not to, plus more we've never heard of. Keep up the good work.

Br2O5 is also very interesting and easily prepared with Bromine and ozone, but that stuff explodes at -20°C in some cases it even did that at -40°C, so I wouldn't want to be even near that stuff.

[@Mr.Nichan]

2:50 It's interesting how you can see that the part below the TiH2 looks darker than the part above it. I wonder if that's Ti or TiH2 vapors or if it's just the difference in index of refraction between hydrogen and air or the higher air pressure below the TiH2 due to the weight. (I doubt the pressure difference matters much because the weight of that small amount of TiH2 is very little compared to atmospheric pressure. The hydrogen is much less dense and less electromagnetically interacting than air, though, so it could be a reduced index of refraction. I bet it's TiH2 vapors, though.)

[@douro20]

This rather novel property of certain metal hydrides is exploited in hydrogen thyratrons where it is used to control the pressure of hydrogen in the tube envelope in order to control the switching threshold.

[@Oystercaulk]

Belac Ickekl nothing like combing the explosive power of nitrogen bonds with the frightful chemistry of fluorine.

[@belacickekl7579]

@@Oystercaulk twice the fun!

[@soylentgreenb]

@@Oystercaulk The nitrogen is good, but if it decomposes you end up with elemental fluorine, which is energetically terrible if there's no fuel to burn. It's not explosive at all or even flammable. It's quite hypergolic, so you can't really mix it well with good fuels to get a good explosive; it will tend to just burn or explode weakly, which makes it not very good for rockets or for explosives. For rockets it's not a great oxidizer either because the best fuel for it (liquid hydrogen) isn't very storable. If you have a hydrocarbon, it makes hydrogen fluoride, which is good, but also elemental carbon which is energetically bad. You really want the carbon to become CO2, so you want to try and mix in some other oxidizer containing oxygen like enough perchloryl fluoride to burn all the carbon; which has it's own set of problems. If you're going for really scary fluorinating agents that are very hypergolic I think you should really look no further than chlorine pentafluoride. It's not really more hypergolic/reactive than it's cousin chlorine trifluoride, but it's a very powerful and energetic oxidizer. It was also tested for rockets, but an insane level of care was needed; any grease, lube, water or rubber o-rings or anything of that kind and it would destroy the passivating layer and cause an explosion. And it's hypergolic with almost anything; asphalt, sand, glass; it all burns.

Hey, I’ve heard about supernitric acid (nitric acid with extra N2O5 dissolved in it). After making a few milligrams of N2O5 via the ozonification of N2O4, I obtained a small quantity of supernitric acid but it was just a few millilitres. (I used a corona ozone generator with pure oxygen and I bubbled the output gas mixture through a solution of nitrogen dioxide in dinitrogen tetroxide). Of course, you have access to P2O5 or other methods of making the N2O5, so maybe that will work better for you. I wonder, what is the maximum concentration of N2O5 in nitric acid ? Are there more exotic oxyacids of nitrogen forming in that solution ?

I love chemistry. I’ve self taught myself so not gonna say I’m good but I’ve kept all my fingers and not burned anything down yet haha! Sucks most chemicals seem hard to get anymore. I need potassium perchlorate and seems most won’t sell it anymore.

[@95rav]

Almost all 'chemicals' are easy enough to source if you: 1: can afford them 2: have a valid reason for them 3: have appropriate licences if required. Not many people would take the risk or ignore their duty of care to sell to a 'self-taught chemist' looking to buy explosive precursors. Personally I like nuclear physics and like you, basically know nothing about it, but have all my fingers. It is hard to get fissile material. Seems no one is selling hydrogen bombs any more. There is more to chemistry than explosives (or drugs). Trying to source those chemicals or precursors is going to be difficult for a reason. Actually learn some proper chemistry and you can make any of the materials you have trouble sourcing yourself - and avoid watch lists. That said, potassium perchlorate is available by the bucket load for a few cents if you have a reason for it.

[@bromisovalum8417]

You can make it yourself. True that these days aren't good for hobby chemistry. A few decades ago I could buy things like perchlorate and many others just by walking into a pharmacy. I could pick up 5kg bags of NaClO3 herbicide at the hardware store just like that. Today these oxidizers can't be sold to private individuals in the EU anymore. HNO3 is banned in any concentration now (a decade ago you could pick up 65% off the shelf) for f*ck sake even H2SO4 above 15% and H2O2 above 12% are off limits, can't be bought without loicense anymore. It sucks ass yes, but as a hobbyist learner you just need to get more creative. Where there is a will there is a way.

[@chemify2384]

Awesome stuff! Could you maybe try making sodium hydrazide? It can be made by reacting sodium Metal with pure hydrazine hydrate in ether or sodium amide with anhydrous hydrazine(sodium and anhydrous hydrazine is said to decompose imediately).
