Aluminum and Mercury

- When mercury is added to aluminum, it forms an amalgam (a mercury alloy). Aluminum is normally protected by a thick oxide layer, but the formation of the amalgam disrupts it. It allows fresh aluminum to react with air to form white aluminum oxide. As the oxide grows, it forms as these cool white fibers.

Hey NileRed, mind if I ask a question? The Aluminum Oxide at 3:35 to me looks like a piece of fabric, but what I want to know is if that waste from the reaction still toxic?
I also saw this first on Facebook.

Things I learned today: Do not use an aluminum boat to cross a lake of mercury.
You can, just don't hit anything while you do it, and make sure the lake also hasn't got small puddles of acid on top
@@raffaeledivora9517 that would only happen in the wet season so it's all good

image being a medieval alchemist and accidentally dropping some mercury on an aluminum piece only to see a fibrous ghost thing literally rising up from nothing while you eat your daily single piece of stale bread . I’d start to believe in magic too.
dude for real. stuff like this must have really seemed magical to alchemists. i really dig this channel.
did they have pure aluminium back then?
@@ali.e7860 prolly not you're right. but something would have happened.
@@ali.e7860 Not really no. There’s a famous story about how Napoleon would give his normal guest at feasts golden goblets, but for his exceptionally special guests, he would give them aluminum ones. Aluminum was much, much, much rarer than gold in the 1800s, I can’t even imagine it really being used in alchemy during the Middle Ages.
Sadly they did not have aluminum back in the Medieval ages. But it would be cool huh?

me watching this half asleep: "i like your funny words magic man"
Now I understand why alchemists thought mercury was magical.
Mercury (AtNo 80) can be indeed used to convert bell metal (Copper (50) plus tin (29) ) to gold (79). The only problem is that alchemists of the past and today's scientists don't know the exact process. However ancient yogis (inside and outside of the subcontinent) were able to use mercury to convert bronze/copper into gold. (WARNING: requires long yogic practice and penance else you will die. I don't want anyone to try the method, so deleted it. Practically nobody in the present age can do it.)

@@SufferDYT it’s true, they were my distant ancestors

I revisited this video for the same reason. Heavy metals are in vaccines too.
Today I learned that besides being toxic and liquid at room temperature, the properties of mercury also include being "super annoying"
I’m told it’s super obnoxious but it expands when you do this which I bet is fun to sit and watch
Annoying isn't the right word... working with Mercury for fun is the scientific equivalent of free climbing an overhang under a cliff face known for rock slides.
Mercury absorbs easily into the skin and bloodstream, and a small amount can be fatal.
Just because this is on CZcams doesn't mean just anyone should play with it.
There are stories of scientists with even four layers of protection getting small amounts of Mercury in their system and dying.

I was just imagining gem fusions... like, mercury and aluminum are fighting together, but when the battle gets tough, they fuse to form amalgam! But they argue too much, so it’s a short lived fusion.
This is wicked to watch, nifty to learn about the oxide layer on alluminum.
This was really cool to see, makes you wonder what his process could be used for.

Something about these videos is oddly captivating to me. I think it’s the minimal sound. Some channels think they gotta add music, and sometimes even sound effects, here, it’s dead air between narration, and it’s kinda all I need.
One of the first experiments we did at school chemistry was to weigh a piece of Al foil, then rub it with mercury. This left a molecule thick film of Hg on the Al and it started reacting. We left it for a week, by which time all the Al had turned into a grey powder. Weighed it again and noted the increase in mass.
Really practising using the balance and making observations.
Bowls of mercury, in an open lab, no safety kit. Still it was about 1960. Chris

Students: This is how chemistry should be taught in class.
Also students : didn't understand a single thing.
Yea
i feel the same in biology and physics
Pretty much.
That’s why they need to teach it
Even if some didn't understand it caught they attention and they still got some information of it and maybe some interest for chemistry. Even if its small its a lot more than what they get in class since in class its just boring theory and no practical part wich is the most important part in chemistry since even if you know the exact terms and stuff in practice you won't know how to do a thing. Also just teaching boring theory won't get students interest but make them hate it and never want to have anything to do with chemistry ever again.

Yeah, I work as a aircraft mechanic, and mercury is (besides from a health danger) a metal that do not need to be heated up to fuse with other metals. Luckily, I haven't seen it while on the job. But (most of the time) it is almost impossible to know if it has fused together. Mercury creates an intercrystalline corrosion, which is only visible through x-rays or Ultrasound tests.

I know when I was in high school, our basketball court got completely redone despite being in fairly good shape, all while our text books for most classes were five to ten years old and falling apart. This is also a school where basketball was the secondary sport compared to football. In addition, the gym where that was done wasn't the one used for PE classes, (we had a much older secondary gym for that), and for a year or so after they did it they didn't even like for people other than the basketball team to walk across that gym floor.
