Turning Table Salt into Acid (All About Acids)
In this video, I give you some insight into the amazing world of acids and make some hydrochloric acid from the good ol' table salt, also now you can flex your newly acquired knowledge to somebody who still thinks acids are like in the movies. Hell yeah.
Keep in mind that I simplified a lot of things to make them easier to understand for people who don't read chemistry journals for fun and spend their life savings on glassware and chemicals.

    Try putting a good handful of table salt into the ice-water baths, it will significantly bring the liquid water temperature down, closer to the temperature of the ice. I imagine it would stay at a low temperature longer too. Alternatively you could just put a very strong saltwater solution ( not supersaturated, keep adding salt until it stops dissolving) in a freezer for a few days. I found that a chest freezer works best.

    I see my magnetic mixer hot plate design got produced, gotta love that Apple security that’s only good if they want it to protect you but you’d have to be “in The Club” for that to be the case. Almost 70% of my invention ideas have been developed since I started keeping them on my comp, I’ve never had money to develop even one. I solved the electric car distance problem so you didn’t have to stop for long periods to recharge but that was built over sees to almost exactly what I had, they don’t get everything right because they don’t have the brains and the only reason the other 30% isn’t created yet is because it’s too hard to understand my drunken notes, I can’t even understand most of them. Why bother with inventions when the patents don’t do anything for you but they do somehow protect huge corporations that fund the Deep State so that’s nice. I’m tortured like the original Tesla when the Deep State went after him.

    This is from John Green video. "The thing you have to understand about Dr. Pepper Is that Dr. Pepper was invented by Charles Alderton who was a chemist. That’s essential to understanding what makes Dr. Pepper interesting. It’s the product of a chemist. And the chemist wasn’t trying to make a soda that tasted like lemon lime or like citrus. He was trying to make a soda that tasted like the soda fountain at the Waco pharmacy smelled. He wanted it in its essence to be artificial."

    You could just doul down the acid in some pots and when it is about 70-80% take iron pipes (water or hydraulic pipes screwed together) full them with the acid and destill it in a wood fire. You can additionally remove metal ions by electrilysis. (Graphite electrodes)
