I've smelt the asparagus smell from other people using the bathroom, I still can't smell it from myself and no one has indicated that the reality is otherwise.
Fun fact about water expanding when it freezes: If it didn't do that and instead contracted, making ice denser than liquid water, we would have no liquid fresh water on Earth, and possibly no liquid seawater, either. The reasons is simple: Heavier ice would sink to the bottom of the lake or river and stay there. When temperatures warmed up later, it wouldn't thaw, so it wouldn't surface as liquid water. It also reduces the temperature of the overall body of water, making it freeze faster the next time temperatures drop. Eventually, over years, you wind up with ever-building sheets of ice at the bottom of the body of water until you finally wind up with what is essential an ice cube that can be rather large -- imagine an ice cube the size of Lake Michigan or Loch Ness, for example. Also, since it isn't sitting on top of a mountain and exposed to the air but rather sitting in an insulated basin of air -- and that it's going to take up slightly less volume than the original -- it's going to be hidden in its own little cozy ice-cooler, so never really be in danger of ever melting. If water did not expand when it became ice, the Earth would be a very different planet.
Um, Simon, you got your freedom units wrong. Water doesn't freeze at -32°F, its just 32°F. Well, I mean it does freeze at that temperature too, but 0°C is equal to 32°F. This just really bugged me. Probably something to do with my culinary training. Also, I don't think I've ever eaten asparagus. I can't think of a flavor for it. Never thought of that until now.

Hydrogen with one proton and two electrons is not a really a hydrogen atom, but a hydrogen ion. In any case, most of these examples relate to physical properties of matter, not to their chemistry. Selling us a pup, here, Simon.
You do realize silicone contains silicon Silicone is often confused with silicon, but they are distinct substances. Silicon is a chemical element, a hard dark-grey semiconducting metalloid, which in its crystalline form is used to make integrated circuits ("electronic chips") and solar cells. Silicones are compounds that contain silicon, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and perhaps other kinds of atoms as well, and have many very different physical and chemical properties.
@11:52 is the most interesting topic you've ever touched on, _ever._ Thanks for all these new rabbit holes to jump into. They _really_ are some excellent suggestions! I'm off to deep dive.... see y'all, _maybe_ next year?🤣🤣🤣
I was watching some science programme ages ago, and he said "Water is the only liquid to freeze the way it does, and that's the only reason that there's life on earth" - and then went on to talk about something else, leaving me going "Hang on a minute! Explain that!" Someone later said that water is the only liquid that freezes from the top down rather than from the bottom up, so that sub-zero ocean depths have free water while the surface is iced over, but I've no idea about this, either.
The reason water is liquid at subzero temperatures deep in the ocean is because of the immense pressure preventing it from forming the rigid structure of solid water, aka ice. It's also why glaciers move. The weight of the glacier produces energy through the pressure it exerts against the ground melting the ice underneath it and producing a layer of water that allows the glacier to flow.
Ice is less dense than water so it floats and insulates the water below it, preventing it from freezing. This is in contrast to most other things where the solid form is more dense than the liquid form. If water behaved “normally” and ice was heavier than water, it would sink to the bottom and let new ice form at the top, until the lake or pond was solid ice and everything in it was dead
Water isn't the only substance that behaves that way. Gallium, bismuth, antimony and germanium do also. Gallium does this just above room temperature (literally: it melts in your hand) and will break a glass container when it freezes just like water. This property made antimony and bismuth useful for type metal alloys,
The expanding and contracting of water being opposite makes sense to why are our bathroom door downstairs doesn't fit during the hotter months and it opens and closes easily during the winter months
That pretty much sums up everything. It only has the value we (humans) assign to it. If we removed money from our system, nothing would have value except that which was essential to living, water food shelter.
The number of mistakes in this episode is astounding: Hydrogen has one electron, not two Water gets more dense when it becomes a liquid from a gas, not less dense The chart has misspellings such as "Hidrogen" and "Oxigen" or maybe that is some non-English language? I can go on but...
It's kept me employed for the past 31 years 🙂...and did you know that when you touch a diamond, you're not actually touching carbon but a monolayer of hydrogen?

Really should you an episode or list item of dangerous chemicals and include FOOF. Any chemical engineers hearing that compound will go absolutely bat shit crazy.
There is a theory that frozen water being less dense floats protecting the water below. If it became more dense it would sink to the bottom of the lake or sea. This in a cold climate a lake might end up being a mass if ice with a thin layer of liquid water on top. This is an old theory, that ice floating may be necessary for the development of complex life. Just maybe.
Well... I mean it does do that but I don't understand what you think the theory is.... It does indeed insulate the water below I mean, it's well known in geo and bio sciences that relate to it. We have known this and it's even been 'used' in thoughts as far as imagining the ocean under the ice of other worlds (and more specifically moons in our own system.) We are planning missions to put submersibles into the subsurface oceans.
@@otakuman706 Yes, ice does insulate the water below. If ice sank rather than floated, this insulation would not occur. More ice would form and sink. It is possible ice down below would build up more than it otherwise would. If it built up enough it could stop currents and convection. Said moons might not have oceans below the ice. On earth this could inhibit life to some degree. Thermal vents would still exist.

You say minute, but nothing on a universal scale is minute. There are probably more new hydrogen atoms made after the formation of atoms then there are grains of sand on all the beaches AND in each ocean. Which would mean Simon is still wrong.

10:19 Fun Fact about the Chemistry of the Sun: Hydrogen proteins in the Sun do not exist, instead hydrogen atoms under the combined gravity of all the other hydrogen atoms are gradually turned into helium through the process of fusion. This process extends from helium through various elements ending in iron, which cannot fuse to become anything else.
Atomic proteins in general aren’t a thing 😂
10:19 hydrogen proteins???
5:00 Hi drogen
Yes..a graphic that isn't in English, even if some spelling matches. Common on this channel
Slight error at "water freezes at -32°F"
I love me some chemistry now!
Do people think the sun is on fire? It's a nuclear plasma.
4:57 Hydrogen with an 'i'?
As with many graphics in these presentations the language isn't English. The spelling, or many things differ between languages.
