Reuploaded because I made an error. I said sodium hydroxide was in ashes, but it is mostly POTASSIUM CARBONATE. The potassium carbonate can work somewhat on its own, but it is usually converted to potassium hydroxide using calcium hydroxide or calcium oxide.
NileBlue oh okay
Thanks for the great video!
Acctualy,I think that ashes should contain potassium carbonate, not hydroxide :/
You are right. Ill fix it again, oops.
Im loving this channel. More pseudoscience debunking would be great. Like "b17" vitamin hoax.
"Fun" fact about soap: When Shepphard patented liquid soap, the Minnetonka Corporation introducted the first pump dispensed soap and cornered the market by buying up the entire supply of plastic pumps available. Later they would make Calvin Klein until they were sold for over $370M in 1989 over 100 years later
Plastic in 1865 huh? I suppose Calvin Klein went back in time to 1945, killed Hitler, and went on the form the Microsoft Corporation, which was later sold to Oracle in 2194?
also fun fact: antibacterial soaps cost more for the same affect regular soaps have.
@@stevesether did they say that the plastic pumps were bought in 1865?
@@RoseOnFire It sure sounds like that when the two events are in the same sentence.
@@stevesether lmao yee he made like a 40 yr jump from the soap patent to plastic thing but his comment was long so im sure he wasn’t tryna write paragraphs.
Gonna show this video to the people at the music festival I go to every year. Not sure if they'll get the hint.

There are some things I've never known I'd like to be explained. Thanks Nile!
These are some things Indian schools teach . ◉‿◉

Thank you so much for these videos, I love them so much!!! I work at a "holistic health spa" where one of the services offered is the "Ionic detox foot bath". I'm 110% certain that it's a scam and worthwhile topic of another pseudo science bust.
maybe they use ions in some weird way while removing toxins from your body and at the same time Le foot bath idk
but that wouldn't make them anything
I hate it when there are too many bad ions in my feet >:(
The misused big term love must be edited out -- misuse of the big term love (and misuse of other big terms that define the absolute and that which is above etc) is soon to be banned, and only I can use the word love instead of like, while love is an absolute feeling that only exists for me the absolute being and the lovable/loved/lovely being, and one could easily use the correct word like instead of love, and not misuse my big terms!
@@FrozenMermaid666 wat
I thought my comment was clear enough for humans to understand?
Finally a good detailed explanation! All other videos I've seen just don't go into enough detail. You go out with the sense that you, kinda understand, but not really....
Somehow I missed this second channel. I'm subbed to both now and have some entertaining catching up to do.
Can you do an explanation as to why certain salts are insoluble in water; particularly basic copper carbonate Cu(OH)2CO3 being insoluble as opposed to copper sulfate and or copper acetate
Thanks for the video. Very descriptive & helpful.
Tip: palmolive vs ajax
Palmolive: more gentle on the skin available in more scents
Ajax: more cleaning and degreasing power easier to rinse
Conclusion: if you're looking for one that's more powerful and easier to rinse ajax is your best friend palmolive is better for sensitive skin and is available in more scents but is harder to rinse
What are you on about
Palmolive is a piece of shit that is the definition of harshness on the skin. Never used ajax so idk. I personally shower with a variety of european soaps, like Alverde or Balea, they work a treat. Dove is also amazing, although it isn't a regular soap, but a combo-bar (part soap, part synthetic detergent).
@@notar2123any strong soap is going to be harsh on the skin, Palmolive included, it’s just the least harsh of the rest of dish soaps and other similar soaps
More interesting now than ever.

Weird how these videos ppp up exactly when im leaening about the saponification process in chem, but im not complaining :)
This was really informative, thank you!
which is best soaps or detergents and which is best for removing grease from greasy clothes?
OK, that explains how soap holds grease but how does soap kill bacteria and viruses? A currently topical piece of information.
I always thought it destroyed the cell walls.
as far as i know, it doesn't kill bacteria or viruses, only removes them. you would need an alcohol based solution (such as vodka or sanitizer) to kill those things
Bacteria and viruses are made of, among other things, fatty acids. Soap literally shreds them apart
Soaps get rid of fat, bacteria are lined with fat. Kills them.
@@AmyOnhercomputer you know i never made the connection between the bi lipid layer and bacteria. thanks for the correction
Could you cover in more details fluorescein fluorescence ? I mean not the general fluorescence topic, just this molecule working
I've been looking for literature about this but didn't found anything concluding.
Also, I already asked you this question quite a long time ago but I'm retrying inasmuch as it's the principle of this second channel
Have a nice day
yeah
Thank you very much sir, it was very helpful
Thats his job
Thanks for your help
Amazing content.
"This video is private"? Link in description needs updating
He uses this channel for side videos so I'm assuming he made this video private on hs main channel
@@birdchip585 This video is not the same as the video on his other channel. Your assumption is based around this misunderstanding.

@@Wasteman365 Thank you, do you know why the link in the description doesn't work? I'm curious :)
Killian Orannis not a clue
How does temperature affect the forming of micelles?
Are the saponified fatty acids already in the soap I put on my hand?
What is the difference between liquid and solid soaps?
I went for AP biology and never took chem.
I wish I would've because it's one of my passions.
If the oils get carried away in the rinsing process, why do your hands smell good after you wash them?
This what I try explaining to people when they say you need to use a wash cloth
Why do these Na+ ions detach and what are their effects on the soap?
the link you provide in the description is broken
I'm 39 and I remember when I was a kid, hand soap was usually always in bars. Do many people still use bars of soap? It's always liquid soap now.
can i ask about why diffrent base solutions can make diffrent states of soap? Is it because of the amount glycerol that it makes?
I am be mistaken but I think from school my chemistry teacher talking about how acidic things like lemon juice neutralize the soap so they are hard to wash off. It was long ago and i faintly remember something among those lines.
Questions:
1. Could the space in between the sides of each tail in a micelle trap air
2. Can a micelle trap air in the middle of it?
3. If a micelle trapped air in its middle instead of an oil, would it then be unable to pick up an oil or, would it drop the air for an oil if it found one (Could it drop the air?)
I am trying so desperately with my very small brain to understand the function of soap suds/lather and google is driving me insane
Bonus: when suds meet water, why do they disperse (ussually)??
I've actually been wondering this lately. Stuff I *need* to know if I randomly travel back in time a few hundred years or more.
Hi Nile I see you like science so its probably not suprising to you than that I found a firefighter that said he was able to extingush a flammable liquid fire by refilling a fire extinguisher with soapy water? ( so that mean he put out a fire in a hydrocarbon using soapy water discharged from a fire extinguisher I would guess this probably does not suprise you?)
The link says the video is unavailable :(

0:59 who woulda thought oil would clean oil
I would love to learn how to make my own miceller water...
So the non-polar molecules in the tails and the micelles CAN't grab onto air right?? If theyre into non-polar liquids.. right?
I would like to see soap molecules breaking bacteria under electron microscope
The link to the main channel vid doesn't work.
czcams.com/video/uMBeXHnWhsE/video.htmlsi=PqUDOchXLS-j8D6D
My chem teacher linked us this vid to help us with saponification
he said about checking video about making soup and its privated and can't watch it
Thank you
Video in description is no longer available. Volume is not normalized to other videos IT IS SCREAMING. Seems to be here czcams.com/video/uMBeXHnWhsE/video.html
Just about to mention this. Thanks
Good stuff
thank you
Why isn't this channel verified?
I always wondered how the cool modern warfare man worked.
Disappointed the linked video is private. Will have to watch somebody else now.
all I wanted was some info about soap, but it got served to me on a luxurious nileblue platter
heck yeah ill take that
What kind of name is soap?
Link in the description leads to a private video. :(
This aged well
?
is my soap still clean if i drop it?
Link doesn't work
"Link to video on main channel: czcams.com/video/4Wl-6NbjCaY/video.html"
Very good
The soaps looks delicious though :p
I love soap!
The link in the de2is private
You sound like NileRed
The video on the main channel went private
Jordan Schlansky brought me here.
same lol

Can someone explain this concept like I'm dumb?
that’s right folks, main component of ash is strong bass
Why have two channels if you do the same stuff? Revenue?
This channel is a less professional version where he does random fun science
@@thatcolorfulnoob This was a pretty concise video.
Nile
TIL that soap is great against ticks!
Does this mean soaps mainly target oils? What about dirt? 👀🤣
I suppose water pressure alone is enough to take care of that. The oils are the hardest to get off, which is why soap is needed. You can rinse non-oily dirt off your skin with just water, but if you've ever gotten grease or oil on your hands you'll know that no amount of rinsing will get rid of it. And there are oils on the skin, too, that can trap bacteria etc. and cause body odour and even infections if not washed on a regular basis. Plus nowadays you get extra things like moisturising, nourishing & scented soaps to choose from that do a lot more than just clean your skin.
next video: making soap out of my grandmas ashes
nilered sent me here eeXXDDee
Someone show this to a super smash player
Soap works by being soapy which means more soap for soap
Say that five times over
It's not that hard
Wait? Did Shephard "made" liquid Soap? But soap was trying to kill him and Shephard did pay the Price in the end
Whatever you say beautiful
When are they gonna make gaseous soap
i was gonna say, why reupload the video haha. also, can you tell us what your college degree is?
I have a BSc in Biochemistry and a minor in pharmacology.
He reuploaded because of incorrect info according to a comment chain
@@lifeontheledgerlines8394 this comment is 3 years old bruh
@@RexPerfection I think it's hilarious that you replied ngl
I didn't actually look at the date tho tbh, rip

tolan come back
Carbon dioxide? With sodium?
Cool.
hello 4am youtube rabbit hole
If you know you know.
Solid natural soap is much better for your body.
i have bad associations with soap.
Soap is used to wash most things.
Maybe its just me but, you sound like the guy from tic tok that shares the properties of different chemicals. Your voice sounds the same.
Meth scented soap
Okay cool
Someone show this a league of legends player
Meth soap
Look. Soap is mayonaise and vice versa, change my mind
Soap Soup
Both propertys? You mean the Mycells have bipolar disorder? Dont you want to Litium them? 😂😂
So anyway phosfolipids are soap
mhm yep.
sope

This is all Chinese algebra to me.
OK.. Is it just me, am I crazy or does he actually sound identical to the minute physics guy???!?
aproposofthewetsnow not at all...
Anybody here for science class.......
trick question, i dont
Is so hard to understand what hes talking about
you forgot the chemistry if you drop the soap 🥶
Ahh
