lol the irony
lol
Σωτηρηε Ντασκας why's it ironic, I must be out of the loop
sorry i not know good english
Dylan Gracias I totally agree with you.
I try to watch codys lab as soon as it comes out because who knows how long until youtube takes it down
That's my thoughts. At this point, I think they might start making up reasons to pull his videos.
Why would they pull his videos? Hes awesome...
If you pay his Patreon you can watch the videos while they're Unlisted, that's usually when they're taken down, before most people tend to watch. That also means the people (or person) that reports his videos is a Patreon supporter. Unless it was automatically taken down but his "How to make Nitrogen" videos (old and new) get taken down by reporting.
Why tf are they taken down though? ...
I don't know, Cody said he doesn't know why he's being targeted because King of Random and many others have similar videos that aren't being taken down. Even his old video that I subbed to him for was "Making Gun Powder from Urine" was taken down and that's been on UA-cam for like 6+ years

I never heard Hydrochloric Acid make such a sound. Very interesting.
Quality comment
:D
was expecting something
not dissapointed
Ive been watching your videos for years now with very little understanding of what was actually happening, but I was still always listening and trying to figure out what was happening. Now this year in high school im taking chemistry and im doing great because everything ive been watching in your videos and other videos is starting to make sense in my head. Thanks for the great videos Cody.
ahhhhhh, this is such a wonderful comment. I hope seeing stuff like this makes him feel as warm and fuzzy inside as it did me, lol.
keep learning! ❤️
@@brandonknight7240 bunnies! :D
This is what its all about! Sharing knowledge and experience. Just rememeber to pass it on to anyone who succeeds you!
"Sir, we used all our silver to refine the gold. What should we do?" "I dunno, do we have any other chunks of even less precious metal lying around?" - metallurgists, probably
Until the widespread development of electrochemistry that's exactly how it was done.
Next up: using iron to refine the copper.
Hes just gonna work his way down the alchemical scale till he reaches lead and wisdom
You could actually use zinc powder to drop the copper out of solution

Hey, we have the same profile pic!
You are really the best science-teacher on UA-cam!
Freizeitflugsphäre I would say best chemist. Best physics teacher is Yearney.
Ben M oh cool! Haven't heard from him until now!😃
Ben M could you send a link to his channel? Cant find him...
Lol, this is true. I could actually see him being a collage chemist teacher. Tbh i think it would be awesome if he came to me school for a week.
He knows his Stuff! He had a Strong Family Background in Science and Mining. But, I wish he would use his Safety Glasses. He's going to get Platinosis! No Cure, and it is a Silent Killer!
*Holding glowing hot crucible with tongs, those with bare hands* Oh its hot. Cody 2018
I genuinely think this is the best representation of the channel, Cody explaining things very well and then instantly does something that would be horribly unsafe for people to do were he to not have so much time invested in this kind of thing.
honestly +10 respect for thinking about what would happen if he gave all the numbers out to everyone
What he said though should have people picking over eBay though. Cody might have made so much money, he's buying up more now 😁
I heard of this thing called freedom of information.. Cody's been proponent of it quite some time. Because the value of the gold was so essential on the video, it was kinda weird to then censor one number because of "concern of public jumping the gun".
What made those people in Patreon so trustworthy that they wouldn't start hoarding gold from ebay? Buck a month makes you smart? People with access beyond paywall do know what to do and the others don't?
Yeah, that was not the Cody's proudest moment. Besides that, i am happy subscriber and will be long into the foreseeable future.
// No one is immune to criticism
Alaric Balthi the object, is Cody doesn't seem to be the best at costing out every consumable used. Chemicals and electricity are part of the cost. If he calculated in time, it would probably always be a loss at these low volumes.
lightdark00 you have tp take into account that cody does either recyle some of his chemicals or make some of his own.
@Alaric Balthi: I think the idea is that if a bunch of his patrons jump on a bad investment, it's hurting a lot fewer people than if a few of his subscribers jump on it. (Also, if they have money to be patrons, they're less likely to need a good ROI to get by.)
Jupiter? More like Neptune! Really cool.
More like Uranus
Yes but Jupiter has better PR...

UA-cam should put you in a VIP class where you can upload without fear of being copyright struck and silenced.

Next time cast your copper into a open grid/lattice instead of a monolithic copper turd, and you won't have to wait so long for it to react the silver out of solution. :) Also it seems like an air stone or a stir bar would be of use here.
I was wondering why he didn't use an air stone, maybe this was to reduce the amount of nitrogen dioxide that was produced from the inquarting? Can you eleborate if you see this Cody?
How does one go about casting in that shape?
“Monolithic turd” lol
+vmp916 easy way would be to use one half of a waffle iron :D or just do like Cody did, except instead of digging out a trench in the mold, dig out a grid.
Or screw casting altogether and use ezaf to acquire stripped copper wire zero need to remelt and could have hooked up to a DC converted power supply with a zinc cathode/ anode to expedite the entire process and a stir bar/ airstone really would not have helped unless the mix was kept at a constant regulated / elevated temp which would have also expedited the process
Its interesting to watch the clock in the end time-lapse; is it temperature causing it to fluctuate?
Maybe but which is changing? the wall clock or the camera?
My guess is the camera since it seemed like every time the clock was off the image would have been harder to compress due to something changing or perhaps it took a little time to readjust to a different amount of light.
Nice
Something smells fishy here
Cody'sLab did you have a conversation with yourself? Isn't that post from your second channel?
Worlds most satisfying lava lamp!
That's what I was thinking! You could start a business selling those lol.
Hmm, a $400+ lava lamp with hazardous chemicals?
Shut up and take my money!
I absolutely hated chemistry in school but as I grow older I've become more and more interested and this channel makes it fun to learn thank you
Beautiful, fascinating video. Man, so much of this stuff has a appeal direct to the senses: the lovely colours, the shiny metals, the patterns in the reactions, even the shapes of the glassware. Also you're a great host. Cheers for making this.
Remember when Cody's mom had nice things?...
Where the hell did all my spoons go? - Cody's mom
Sicko! LOL
Maybe she still does.We're just not allowed to see them 'cuz Cody's dad would get mad.
What nice things?
Could you do a Titanium refining video?
Probably not worth your money or time to do it in practice. But I'll be happy with just an explanation of the process.
Just want to know exactly how hard it is. Ti is as abundant as Aluminium, but tougher by weight. The reason it isn't everywhere is because it's so costly to refine.
no
First you have to extract the titanium from ore with a stream of chlorine gas at high temperatures, then it has to be heated to like 2200 degrees with a reducing metal under an inert atmosphere in a steel reaction vessel and held at that Tempe for a few days until it's done reacting. It's not really something you can do at home.
This is one of the coolest videos ive seen yet, love the time lapse. I kinda wish i had you as a chemistry teacher... then again the chem teacher i had was amazing herself, shes what sparked a love for these types of videos.
Don't stop doing what you're doing Cody! Epic. Really inspiring stuff!
I love the new song at the end during the time-lapse!
Happy Birthday Codie
Really nice video. The reactions looked really cool and it's probably one of the coolest recovery videos you've done so far
You really are one of the most entertaining people I have ever met in my life much less the most entertaining person on UA-cam your science experiments Rock Cody thank you so much for the work you do keep pumping out that awesome content man we support you in every way
Cool another great video thanks for taking the time and effort to share with everyone much appreciated
*melts metal* cody: "woah its HOT"
Great video and what a awesome visual way to show off the process.
and welcome back to uploading dear Cody.
Glad to see you back Cody. Thanks for keeping up with the great content. Keep the videos coming.
welcome back CodySlab
anyone else watching who don't understand shit but still find it extremely facinating to watch?
me
usually I understand the videos but I have no idea what this glowing blue stuff is
Ive watched you for years and I think this is one of the coolest things youve done, I could watch the silver fall off for hours
I love this channel! I was worried about the silver when you did that gold video, I was thinking "oh damn he is sacrificing all that lovely silver? that sucks!", but you recovered it! I learned a lot from watching both videos, it's amazing how these things can just be turned into liquid and then powder, and then bars again. I never liked chemistry and found it boring, but you sure have changed my mind there! Amazing stuff, I hope you get a billion subs!
Back in action. :-) Beautiful bars.
I appreciate how you care enough about the quality of your comments to edit them even if no one ends up seeing them.
@@TabooGroundhog cringe bro
You can also recycle the copper out of solution if you had a more reactive metal like iron (steel) in hand :)
O I could just react the copper carbonate with charcoal. ;)
+Cody'sLab The charcoal method is indeed a better alternative as the iron method would be much slower.
ooo nice Then you could allow the saplings to uptake the CO2 produced
Nah just take the copper solution to the scrap yard as is, let them deal with it
By far the visually coolest method you have shown us. Thanks for keeping me interested. Great job! :)
It's so fascinating and relaxing to watch you work! love the videos.
The metal growing off of the copper bar reminds me of the experiment NileRed did when he accidentally rediscovered Lead Sponge.
happy birthday brodie,,,,,
hit that thumbs up button
I like the timelaps music! great to have u back
It's always a pleasure to come watch whatever you're doing.
Hey Cody ur awesome
Cody's back, yeah! :-)
Welcome back Cody and Happy Birthday Brodie!
I love these videos. Please keep doing more of these, they are super amazing!
Thanks Cody, I'm sorry UA-cam is being so rough on you. I appreciate your videos and find you as a legitimate content creator. I figure you have some troll from another science channel is after you. There is no reason to flag your content.
ល្អណាសបង
Love how this dude makes himself laugh so often lmao
Glad to see you back up and posting again!
The time lapse at the end is soooo good! Great work man.
Where do you get those tall glass containers
what right do people on youtube have to demand anything from cody? that's the whole point of patreon. you support him financially and he gives you the ability to in-part dictate what content he produces. if you watch his youtube videos but dont care enough to donate money to him, you have no right complaining when he does something like the gold price incident. people who get upset over stuff like that make me worry about the future of humanity
Another like hunter appeared!
*Complains himself about people complaining*
You still dont get to demand anything from anyone just because you are struggling financially.
gacekky1 answering turninator. But I'm not so sure now I understood what he is talking about.
Arne Schwarz not everyone has the money just throw at people
I've watched loads of your videos Cody, and so far this is my favourite 👍
Glad to see a new video! Hope this one stays up!
I thought my cat meowed, lol
This video shows what will happen to the UA-cam server if this channel is struck/disabled again.
Good to see you got your channel up and going again!
Pretty badass.
Thanks Cody for another fine episode. Welcome back to UA-cam.
you can’t watch a Cody’s video without seeing the spoon :v
Manh Do que hongo
+Lord Turnip que rollo con el hoyo
I heard meowing in the background.
Glad you can upload again!! Keep it up Cody!
Another awesome video Cody!
Best regards, wish you success with all your experiments and no dangerous accidents!! Be safe Cody!
Guess who's back? Back again. Cody's back. Tell a friend. Guess who's back... guess who's back... guess who's back... guess who's back?

So happy your back Cody
This is one of your coolest videos yet Cody I love it!
can you make the power puff girls
hmm might take another 5 years to develop the technology but we're making strides
Ciao il palladio cosa 75 dollari al grammo giusto 22500 dollari giusto 300 grammi
you should make coins that says cody's lab in copper silver and gold and sell those. but you can just do electroplating for the gold/silver coins. it would just be cool buy my a coin that you refined and made. also, if you do make those, make a video of it and do a give away for one.
Average People I would buy one for sure
That end time-lapse was really cool! One of the coolest in this channel!
Glad you're back Cody!
is there any reason why you don't put your metal bars on something like a ceramic plate instead of a wooden plank? seems to me that currently you'd have to clean them off, but if you used an old ceramic plate (or even a graphite mold or something similar) that wouldnt be the case.
That was gypsum board.
I assume it is because it gives a better surface area than if the copper was all smooth.
And a ceramic plate would explode from the thermal shock
Could you refine sodium metal from table salt?
Int theory yes, you'd have to use Lithium to get the Chlorine to switch over from the Sodium. In practice this would quite difficult and expensive.
@@GlebReawer could also use electrolysis of molten table salt
You're freaking awesome man. Thank you for making me love chemistry that which I never understood and hated at one point of time.
Glad you're back again. Thumbs up
Hey Cody, you should look up Patrick Adair Designs on UA-cam - he also works with the Waterjet Guys from time to time. He can turn some of those precious metals back into jewellery for you, if you look at his works on his channel they are pretty great.
Nathan Binns I second this

a colab with him would definitely be something awesome to see
Music at the end?
I think it's based on this: Stuck In the Sound: Let's Go
Nice to see you're up again!
Glad to see you back.
Hey,Cody
I have a Question for a long time : If you double the speed of a bullet it will get 4 times as powerfull.
But our gunpowwder is limited to something like 1500m/s. Would it be possible if you use nitroglyzerin or or other high explosives to rech speeds like 2500 m/s or even more ? Not with a regular barrel but maybe with a long cylinder out of steel with a very small calliber hole?
I asked that question on reddit, but then it was gone:(
Nitroglycerin burns just like gunpowder, In-fact its used in some smokeless powder compositions. now if you made a shaped charge and focus the energy of a bunch of detonating high explosives into a metal cone then you can darn near get orbital velocities. and actually If you get the cone to compress some hydrogen and focus that onto a thin piece of metal foil speeds up to the escape velocity of Jupiter (60 km/s) have been obtained.
rail gun
Cody'sLab thats incredible. I know about shape charges, but I didnt know they were that fast. Wow. I have a question: Would it be worth trying to salvage the guts of my catalytic converter if its old and clogged? Thats my project for today, should i keep it or toss it?
I didnt know that either ...but is isnt possible to shoot them like a rifle, i thought is would be possible to shoot faster with better explosives.
Taofledermaus shoot aluminum balls at very high speeds, but he reached the maximum velocity.
Yay 1 Hi Yay. The answer is, unfortunately not. Most millitary propellants make use of an explosove rather than gunpowder. Smokeless powders are normally based on nitrocellulose (we call them single-base). Medium calibre ammunition will normally use two explosives (hence double-base). Currently the state-of-the-art for large calibre weapons is triple-base (you guessed it - three energetic materials. The muzzle velocities, though are all on the order of a 1000 m/s - the fastest projectile I ever designed was a sub-calibre fragment simulator fired from a 30 mm weapon and it clocked at 2700 m/s. The reason the velocities achievable do not scale with the "potency" of the explosive is that it is not the explosive that is doing the job. What is really happening is that tge energetic material releases lots of gas when ignited. This gas, at high pressure, expands and it is the expansion that drives the projectile. The projectile velocity is limited by the acoustic velocity (how fast sound or a wave can propagate in a gas) in the gas driving the projectile. The acoustic velocity can be calculated from sqrt (gamma×R×T) where gamma is the ratio of the specific heats of the gas, R is the specific gas constant, and T is the flame temperature. It is gamma and R that is killing us, the flame temperature is normally aroind 2500-3000 K for energetic materials...gamma will always be small (close to 1) for very hot gasses and R is the universal gas constant, Ru = 8314 J/kg divided by the molecular mass of the gas. Most explosives when reacted ti completion produce CO2, H2O and various oxides of N - the molecular mass is then also normally in quite a tight band resulting in a R value of close to 300 J/kg. This sucks since the sqrt of 3000 K x 300 J/kg is 948 m/s. For my fast projectile we used a propellant that produces a high gamma and a low molecular mass. This is exactly why we use light gas guns to propel very fast projectiles - the molecular mass of the propellant (hydrogen or helium) is so low we can get very high acoustic velocities.
KITTY!
I'm so glad you're back.
