"You will find that the activity is a little... Greater" *Explodes*
when you are here bc of school
Tell me about it
Innit 😂
I’m not lol, learnt about this today and I was interested so I looked it up.
Ikr
Im here because I'm high!
I was waiting for him to say "Next we are going to be trying Francium..."
The sodium was going all Mario Kart
potassium was me when i got hit by a blue shell
😂
😂😂
Lmao 😂😂
It goes skrrt..
Who else is here for a chemistry lesson?
Meh
Yup
I'm doin it for a project rn
me rn
Me
I think you might've covered the wrong beaker.
😂
Savage!
Welp it’s clear him want the table to burn up
He actually meant the middle one might cause the entire house on fire
😂😂😂🤣 exactly
Lithium: *sizzle sizzle*
Sodium: (rocket) zooooooooooooooom
Potassium: Boom goes the firecracker!
Francium: "So you have chosen death..."
Chemistry. Just...oh my God. Make things explode with WATER.
its much more than that. lots of lame shit
@@androidgamezzz5775 can confirm, chem is for losers
I actually did this myself last year in school, it was quite fun! Well, I did lithium and natrium (you call it sodium in the US), the teacher did kalium (potassium) and then showed us a video of all five. Rubidium reminded me of fireworks, and cesium blew out the side of the bowl.
What country are you from?!
@@DA20052 I'm from Sweden but I was a foreign exchange student in the US at the time. I remember I kept having to remind myself to use the English names of the elements.
@@CarolineYvonneHallstrom2005 oh now I understand
I'd imagine fransium (Fr) just blow up the chemistry lab due to it being the most reactive out of the alkali metals
i have never seen someone using the word natrium as an equivalent to sodium besides in element symbol nomenclature, so it’s pretty cool to see that a country - a north Germanic country no less - uses the Latin word for it.
Adds potassium to water in beaker totally fine
Me: adds a tiny insignificant amount of lithium metal *beaker is destroyed to bits of flying glass*
My high school chemistry teacher once put sodium in a water bowl in the school's parking lot, it was really fun to watch
Same with ours, he tried lithium, then sodium then he did potassium which reacted so aggresivly it shot up to the roof and made a small hole, it was really funny
So where do i find this i wanna do school toilet vs potassium
Update: School didn't like the idea and didn't find it as funny I got expelled
That would be some Nice pops and a loud Ass explosion. Experienced that already
Lmaooo
Amazon has a lot of alkali metals however they are hard to ship.
You're giving the troublemakers from high school ideas lol
Good Idea! 🤪😆
Thank you Scott Milam, very cool
2:04 - My butt reacts like that a few hours after eating curry......
ToonandBBfan hahahahaha
Explosion!!!!
This is a great demonstration and it never gets old! The action lab here on CZcams did a video that was sodium into sulfuric acid. Very cool but extremely violent its worth a see.
Next we r trying rubidium nd caesium... RIP😂🤣
This is what you should get when searching 'Reaction' on CZcams.
Guy: *cuts sodium in half*
Me: brain, don’t do it..

Good work. I did the reaction with Natrium and water. It first melted and after that ignited. Shortly after that exploded with a short and loud sound, continuing to burn in the air. I love this metal. But I've never had more active metals.
Hello dear quite 1 1like tho
Hi l like this metal too and am your fun marion😅
Nicely done. TY.
Studying the topic- properties of metallic alkali, and I'm here!
Thanks so much for the youtube, I am a science teacher and I wish I could do this in my class, but they will have to watch it on youtube instead...we are under strict lockdown.
From which country.
Ahhhhh hi miss lol
Lol she ain't my teacher
Loved the potassium reaction!
I like potassium
It tastes nice too
Ya its sexy
We did this in class and it burned the table :))
@@cillian06 Same but it burnt the whole classroom (Well…. not the whole classroom) it jus exploded my teachers brain XD
Thanks for the demonstration. Did you add phenolphthalein to each beaker, thus the pink color during the reaction?
It's kind of bizarre how water puts out fire, yet simultaneously causes it here
in potassium, he says "the level of potassium is low so the reaction would be lower #.*?! greater. Cause it happened to be greater than he thought
Thanks for this video
Sweet vid bro
Sodium in my case:
*floats on water*
*ignites*
*loudly explodes, that the protection screen bounces*
Does anyone here remember the DC comics in the 70's with the metal eating alien sponges? I think they must've got the idea from methyl orange as when you heat it up it rapidly swells up and becomes just like a sponge and it also eats holes in metal as anyone who has ever had a chemistry set as a kid will know.
Big up mr tyrer for sending me here
Was here just for the explosion really
Li,Na gangsta till the K entered his arena.
K gangsta till Rb and Cs enter this arena
@@nikolovdimitry5996 Rb,Cs gangsta till Fr get in hands of kim jong-un
Fr is the boss😜
Element 119: *who's the boss now?*
@@r.a.6459 eka francium (at no -119) has not yet been discovered it could be discovered later or maybe not. 😉
Amazing video
I just like watching them react.
when my teacher didn't assign me this but i want to watch this bc it is cool.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can any expended substance be reused, can the "waste" or "exhaust" of chemical reaction be reused for fuel?
This is sooo cool
Sodium is gonna ignite, so puts on Gauze... Potassium... is just dumped in lol
Me: sees fire
Me: pours water
Me: sees more fire
Me: confused screaming
real event
I have a doubt, why did the solutions turn pink when the metals was dropped in the water??
As another video with more of the alkali series shows, the further down the column (on the table of elements) one goes, the more reactive the metal is with air and water. Cesium, in particular, doesn't float, so it sinks like a rock then the hydrogen flare basically detonates in the water like a depth charge. Rubidium I have yet to see go in the water, but I'd bet it would be memorable...
Brady Haran videos this experiment and has it here on youtube! The following is a link to his video on the reaction with Rubidium and water. czcams.com/video/iP6CRZdDu6o/video.html
I saw a video of someone putting rubidium in water, it looked like fireworks and exploded out of the water. The cesium actually broke the bowl!
Does the sodium consistently move in a counterclockwise motion with this experiment, and if so what is the mechanism for this phenomenon?
It should be just random motion
Can a recyclable process be created/proposed to produce a gas that can be used for propulsion?
Nice video bro ; )
simply awesome,.....nice
Awesome sauce!
Amazing
This was thrilling to observe in class
2:04 Nice explanation and lesson, but I found it kinda funny because it sounded like someone got their finger stuck in a HIGH VOLTAGE SWITCH, and the switch got shot!!!😂🤣😅😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😆😆😆😆😆
If you put a bit more sodium and a bit more potassium you'll notice that sodium creates a power explosion because of the spikes compared to potassium because of coulomb explosion.
where can you buy these metals?
Interesting touch adding the pheno to indicate OH, just curious why you didn't mention that was why it turned pink ?
it was just a short clip so maybe could have mentioned in the full video?
good job
Will you mind adding 3 of them together?
That probably wouldn't do much...
What do you expect would happen?
@@aurelia8028 Not sure what they expect, but it would be less effective compared to adding 3x the most reactive one.
Can the exhaust from the output be used or recycled for other power?
Down the group , reactivity increases ! so true
My online tutor is making me watch this rn
School gang where you at?
Di....did he just put sodium in the lithium beaker
THANKS!
Thanks miss Whitaker for sending me here in year 10 chemistry. UK gang know how it is
I agree
Ok jack
I have to do this in yr 7 😒
Can you please tell me that what elements was used by you in all test tube 🙏🙏🙏
1) Li
2)Na
3)K
My chemistry teacher once showed us the reaction of water and sodium. So sad that I cannot show it to my students now because there are so many limitations on chemicals in the place where I live now
who needs fireworks?
Can water be used with any combination of alkali to produce thrust in neutral gravity?
I dont even have a clue
Helped with my assignment
It's useful tysm
Good evening Scott. Is there a way to email you? I would like permission to make use of your video with some of groups. I teach EAL students and I would like to make use of your video. Thank you for posting all these great videos!!
asdfasdf@gmail.com
I don’t know if he ever got in touch but if not there are often links in the profile about page. He has one to a blog and some other links it seems which may allow you to make contact.
loved it
yes of potassium
How about a thin sheet of sodium in a vacuum chamber and start pumping in chlorine gas?
Why sodium hydra oxide is pink
The first sodium is their like practicing for marathon 🤣🤣
Ty sir
Interresting
And that’s what you call fire in water😎
i enjoy the noises
What happens when you eat these rocks?
NICE
But why does the hydration enthalpy decrease down the group
if potassium is so reactive with water how come your stomach doesn't explode when you take a potassium supplement and wash it down with water?
potassium in its neutral form is reactive due to the final valence electron being very easy to remove. Charged potassium in a banana or supplement already has that electron removed so the properties differ quite a bit.
@@APphyzicks Thank you!
What chemistry lessons should look like
If you were to somehow make francium (a HIGHLY radioactive alkali metal) stable in terms of NUCLEAR properties, and you procure a roughly 1-CC cube of that element, then if you put that into a beaker of water, then it would generate a HUGE fireball and blow said beaker to smithereens! You see, the heat from such a reaction would flash-boil the water within the beaker ALL AT ONCE. The resulting HUGE expansion of steam AND the hydrogen fireball would basically blow up the beaker. Without nuclear stabilization, that 1-CC cube of francium would almost instantly turn into a gas as a result of the extreme amounts of heat generated by the element's lightning-fast radioactive decay.
The explosion generated by 1 cubic centimeter of francium reacting with water would probably be at least as powerful as the explosion produced by one stick of dynamite.
What did he put in top of the middle beaker
Potassium container needed a cover over it too
Everyone : wow thats cool , wow thats explosive
Me : why the heck these metals are rotating
So- I was gonna place a bunch of lithium cup bombs around my school as a prank. And then I saw this comparison. Potassium is my new metal of chpice
And to think if you remove one valence electron it won't do that
Things I watch to revise 🥱🤬
This is boiled water or cold water please tell me
Why sodium is not catch fire when it is opened
the smoke comming out is hydrogen gas and maybe a bit of steam not the metal or its hydroxide
So is this the reaction of water and metal or water and metal oxide?
We did this in school
Die Reaktivität der Alkalimetalle mit Wasser nimmt in dieser Reihenfolge zu: Lithium, Natrium, Kalium, Rubidium, Cäsium, Frankium. Woran liegt das? Nun, schauen wir uns doch mal den Aufbau der Atome an, bei jedem Alaklimetall in der Reihenfolge, wie sie im Periodensystem stehen, wenn man es von oben nach unten sozusagen liest, kommt eine Außenschale dazu, die Elektronen sind immer weiter vom Kern entfernt, man kann sie also immer leichter entfernen, die Ionisierungsenergien liegen immer niedriger, dementsprechend ist es leichter, sozusagen Elektronen von Frakium aus seiner äußersten Schale zu entfernen, als von Lithium. Die Elektronenaffinität der Nichtmetalle nimmt genau in der entgegengesetzen Richtung zu, Fluor ist demnach das reaktivste Nichtmetall, sowieso ist es das reaktivste Element, es hat die höchste Elektronegativität, dies ist auch wieder auf den Bau der Atome zurückzuführen.
How can i get sodium like that?
Why do they turn purple-ish??? (Need an answer ASAP)
2:56
tsssstssPOPtsssstssPOPtsss- *disappears*
If the water is warm the Sodium will ignite better. With cold water it is less likely.
