Rest assured us Americans do refer to auto bumpers as such. I have always had an eye for nickel plating rather than chrome as it has a deeper color

Neil laughed!
MOM GET THE CAMERA!
No, I think Neil tried to show his teeth to scare the slurry to combust.
He laughed because he knew he had to clean it up. It was the kind of laughter that you get shortly before a nervous breakdown.
History was made in this video!
He laughed because he knew he'd done a rookie mistake :DD
not the first time! He laughed in the caesium reaction video and other reaction videos as well =D
Can't believe I only just discovered this channel. As soon as I saw the hair I subscribed.
In matters of science that hair just screams "I know what I'm talking about" doesn't it? :-D
Yes, for a science professor, that is some authoritative hair.
Came for the science; stayed for the hair.
That hair is doped with mercury, I bet
me too
im 3600 ft underground in a nickel mine in sudbury ontario right now. love the periodic videos, definitely helps pass the time on standby down here.
Can we get an interview with Neil? He often saves the day with his practical insights.
He talks too much.
We are the scientists who say Ni!
anononomous 😂😂😂😂😂
Ni! also works within other professions...the context might be lost on some but it's still a useful ice breaker in most situations and understood in most earth based languages
We demand... a shrubbery!
_do i smell N-Word?_
The professor is a Knight who says Ni.
Is the professor immortal?
?
He will live on as pure knowledge after his death or as a meme 😊
The Professor is eternal.
He is only like 60 -65 I think
Caitlin Thompson Wow. I can't wait to see the professor at 90.
I always love the few times he mentions Canada in his videos. Makes me feel like our country exists to some extent on the scientific world stage.
He described Sudbury in a very positive light. What a saint!
Raney nickel quite reliably sets fire to flammable organic solvent vapors when it dries out...this is a problem when using these organic solvents with Raney nickel in hydrogenations (quite often methanol). Once the reaction is complete you filter off the Raney nickel, which glows orange if allowed to dry (as shown in the experiment in the video). This can ignite methanol vapors if present, and methanol fires are particularly bad because you quite often can't see the blue flame it produces! You can prevent this by not allowing the catalyst to dry out, or keep everything under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon.
Very nice video as always, thanks!
11:00 americans call bumpers bumpers as well. Fenders are on the sides, above the tires.
Fenders gonna Fend
Ohh so THAT's why the guitar brand is called Fender. The more you know...
Bumpers gonna bump
Ivan Mazeppa - Nope, they're named after their inventor Leo Fender :)
justyo96 - You have your crazy theory and I have mine. We'll never know which one is true.
We work for years to have, $1million while some people I know put thousands of dollars in some meme coins and they are millionaire
Most times, having knowledge or insight about a particular activity can as well be a pleasing exercise.. I can bodly say that forex and crypto trading is one of the profitable currency exchange service that elevate investors and their financial status...
Look out things from the net and reach out to an expert.
Great idea been put up to you but ignorance won't let you take the opportunity.
@@rebeccaserah7558 Isn't ignorance but due to unprofessionalism in crypto/forex market.
Absolutely right sir!! They're real brokers out there. Though, they're few
2:31 had to pause the video, go to the comment section... i was sure there would be a ton of jokes.
But no, this channel has the most mature audience of all of youtube... and i don't count among that :-P
Me too lol
Rule 34
Very cleaver usage of toys. ;p
GET THIS TO THE BAD DRAGON DESIGN TEAM ASAP XD
Ur was funny.
7:12 Neil can laugh ! It's official ! :'D
He actually spoke on one video, a couple of years ago. Believe it or not.
If you go through the element playlist, he does a couple times in the first few elements.
Neil is like the one they call the stig from Top Gear
Think it's a sort of tradition on that island..
However, even his laughter is mute!
His smile, made me smile, because it was so genuine.
I hope he finds more things to enjoy in life.
If I a dime every time neil laughed I would have a nickel.
I love your pfp, its just your political compass scores lol, I betcha people get angry at you for it all the time lol.
That means you take away 5 the surgeon 👩⚕️ and you have 5 leftover
that would mean he laughed 0.5 times
@@aawagga7099 Probably not so much on science channels, but elsewhere, no doubt.
@@jadestormbringer3733 which isn't a lot, but it's weird
list of elements neil reacts to, until now:
- helium
- sodium
- sulfur
- potassium
- chromium
- iron
- nickel
Thank you for this amazing list. Now I must watch all of these videos.
where's the hypothesis of the chemical explanation of why these elements react with Neil, and others don't?
@@omikronweapon most of the time it's because they explode :-)
Maybe his diet is rich in these?
Neilium has the correct number of electron d orbits
"And eventually, it glowed slightly"
Well, that escalated slowly.
We put together a huge ball of Plutonium and eventually it glowed slightly.
This is in my top 10 channels on UA-cam. Absolutely fantastic channel.
Hi professor. Thanks for the great video.
Here's a little bit about chrome plating (but not about bumpers and fenders - the US and Britain use "bumper" to describe the same part of the car. What we call a fender, British people call a wing.)
Chrome plating is a three-step process.
First is a layer of copper plating. This provides a solid surface for the rest of the system to stick to.
Next is a layer of nickel. It's used for two reasons - it's the right color, and it's very easy to polish to a high shine.
After the nickel is polished, a layer of hard chromium protects the nickel from scratches and oxidation.
12:10 funny how he thinks he outsmarted his students while youtube probably has 100 videos about that process/experiment
Had some experience working in a canola oil plant that used Raney Nickel catalyst for hydrogenation. On more than a few occasions, the spent catalyst bins would spontaneously combust, but it also contained small quantities of vegetable oil, aiding the process.
Two more very important (perhaps most important) roles for Nickel:
First as a part in most stainless steels, not what makes it stainless but to make it machinable and usable (makes the steel stay in austenitic phase and not ferritic).
Second as a base metal in it's own category, Nickel alloys (also called Super alloys, one example is the Hastalloy sorts). Very strong and resistant to oxidation.
R K don't forget high strength bolts
Found a new favorite channel.
6:25
I can't imagine how exciting that must have been for Raney when he realized he found a new catalyst!
My periodic table sense was tingling so I checked UA-cam
You know, I've always wondered how catalysts actually work. It would be great if you could do a video on that!
Thanks😊
during the reaction, the reactant/s use the catalyst sort of as a place holder for electrons as they have incomplete d-shells. in the contact process, where vanadium is used to create sulfur tri oxide, from dioxide:
SO2 + VO5 -> SO3 + VO4
Straight after the vanadium shared electron that it lost to the sulfur is made up with (if enough oxygen is present)
1/2O2 + VO4 -> VO5
this means the reaction is propagated by the vanadium, but it does not get used up, making it a catalyst. Iron has a similar role in the production of ammonia
If vanadium were not used, this reaction would be much more energy intensive
@@theoblack6810 That should be V[2]O[5], not VO[5]. Also 2VO[2] instead of VO[4].
I find interesting that nickel much more effectively sank down to the earths core than iron. Effectively depleting nickle in earths crust. The chemical reasons (from both the perspective of nickel and iron) behind that difference in behaviour would be interesting to hear. ... Related to that: ...
I recently found out that the very heavy elements thorium (and uranium) are highly concentrated in earth crust but depleted in all of earths interior. This is (as I understand currently) what results of relatively recent neutrino experiments suggest.
Generally: Chemistry vs planetary level gravity on large time-scales seem to be an interesting and little investigated topic.
mechadense you have a lot of free time
Highly informative as usual.
"And eventually.."
"It glowed slightly"
xD
I live about 1 hr from Sudbury Ontario. .. and you seem to know more about the area then I do! Thanks for the lesson!
"I was assued that it was probably alright"
> Probably alright.
H.I. sent me here, to re-booted videos, and I'm so glad they did!
You're doing a great work, thanks!
I used to package Raney Nickel at Aldrich, we would put a little bit on the floor and about 20-30 later, it would go off. The bottle you have is from the early to mid 90s, those are old Sigma Aldrich labels. I actually have a video on my cell phone of us messing around with it. I also have video of us messing around with aluminum chloride, when we would rinse the funnels off, it would create clouds of HCl. Anyway, I remember the Raney Nickel coming in these black metal pails, like 5 gallon paint pails with the covers crimped on. It was only about 1/3 Raney Nickel and the rest D.I. water on top. Stuff is a bitch to weigh and package, sticks to everything.
I used nickel for my chemistry internal assessment back in high school. I also used other transition metals like chromium, manganese, etc. I'll be honest, I took a little of them all home as samples.
Love your videos! Love from Sweden.
[Music + experiment sounds]
Always nice to come back to this channel now and again.
Most Americans I know prefer bumper, as well. There's a term 'fender bender' that refers to an accident that isn't likely to have done any damage to the integrity of the car, but other than that it's mostly people in(older) commercials that utter the term 'fender' at least in the Mid-West.
Americans call bumpers "bumpers" as far as I know.
Well we call them either bumpers or fenders, depends on the person.
No, fenders are the quarter panels (around the tires). What the english call "wings".
Bumpers are just bumpers.
Fenders are the bit that 'fend off' the stuff kicked off by the tires. The Brits call them 'wings'. Bumpers are the bits on the end that get the chrome, as shown in the video.
Since the removal of bumpers, many cars have a single panel that wraps around from one tire to the other on either the front of back end. As a result, these panels are sometimes referred to as fenders today. Cars without bumpers have bumpers, but they are behind the panels now, and are incorporated into the frame, so they don't shine them up anymore.
I thought both those were odd names, here in Oz we call fenders/wings quarter panels or just panels for short and bumpers have always be called bumpers.
You've made me fall in love with chemistry. Wow!
Same :D
This guy is really great
Seeing Neil happy brings me joy.
I'm from the Atlanta, GA area and we've always called bumpers, bumpers. We call the side part of the car around the wheels, fenders.

7:13 You've broken your Neal. He is laughing!
I am 35 I'm still working on a masters in social work, probably because I'm a natural social worker.... Im also partially blind so I'm also a dancer (DnB ;)) and a photographer... I'm a rebel ha. I was in advanced learning in middle school but went to one with not many resources and over worked teachers. I loved science when i look back to it, and fell behind fast when we got to such open answers and a big chemical table, which seemed so small on the overhead projector. Now i get excited to see chemistry come my screen again. I don't feel this daunting guilt about not getting it and everything falling behind. Which is pretty easy when you live in inner city Miami in the 90's haha. I am inspired now because I am thankful I get to go check out the eclipse on the lawns of MIT and Can hear cool lectures at harvard now because I love Cambridge (Boston)... I'm truly great full for you guys and gals. What's up with those cool Bismuth extras???I gotta admit I make nerdy pretty cool looking ha #noshame
Once again the professor is the best. Outtake was great and Neil keeps going
We Canadians are very proud of our Nickel indeed, We display our Beaver on them
And we Turks are proud of our Boron, we make soap with them :D
Aahaha, and it's a grand regal beaver
You guys are awesome. Love from America 👍
FINALLY I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A NEW NICKEL VIDEO FOR 5 YEARS!!! :D
Beautiful! And congrats on being 98.3% of the way to a 1 million subscriber award ;)
Weird! I woke up this morning thinking about nickel and its high coefficient of friction and then this was posted
With the Rainey nickel are you sure that the oxidisation didn't take place slowly over time as the water evaporated because in the thermal camera it was hotter than the surrounding surfaces
Lol, NVM I just watched till the end
Thanks for the great video!
We call bumpers "healthcare isn't for poor people," and fenders are actually called "the rich don't pay taxes here."
Outstanding video, even by your standards. Thankyou.
I could be wrong on this, but when he was talking about the hydrogenation of oils, the professor kept mentioning that the hydrogen 'absorbs' onto the surface of the nickel. Is my terminology wrong or should he be using the word 'adsorb' instead?
ASandwichNinja you're correct.
2:51 "Hello, my name's NiNO!!!"
HaHaHaHa,you could have said (C5H5)NiNO-terribly toxic!!
I see that you are a man of culture
Nickelous
Guys! You done it again.
Yet another brilliant video.
Love your videos they bring pure bliss
Omg, look how many icons are on his desktop 0.0
We (Americans) call it a bumper as well. The fender is the part of the body that sits over the wheel. It's primarily a splash and debris guard.
The classy bits of youtube (such as this) are really so cool.
Nickel is used in my flute, it's made of silver plated nickel except I've got a more expensive flute that has a solid silver head joint which changes the sound completely
"I was assured it was probably ok"
Amazing
"probably ok"
"There's a 100% chance it might be fine"
Never clicked off another website so fast.
"another website" hmmmmmmmmmm..

I'm always on UA-cam tho
lol web site lol
WhiteGenocideResistor how did you know?
When I was a boy & my family visited Sudbury Canada there was a huge statue of a (Canadian) nickel at the entrance to town. I was impressed.
These periodic table videos are amazing. I'm in.

Your channel has made an "Oganesson" amount of Videos to fill the current Periodic Table of Videos!
How very "Noble" of you!
Congratulations!

We are the chemists who say "Ni!"
I once heard a tale of Knights who say "Ni" ....
Ni!
SH!
These newer video are fantastic.
From now on I will exclusively accept help from this lovely man.
Kudos to Neil for thinking about the Raney Nickel reaction in sufficient detail in order to get us a nice whoosh!
"Assured it was PROBABLY ok...so i grabbed Neil..."
Wow, scrolling down I was expected nice comments but humanity proved me wrong. Just wanted to say great video, I always enjoy them. Thanks for the knowledge.
I've been playing a game with some fan-made modifications, that add various machines you can make, and ores that you can mine. And one thing it added was the ability to alloy certain things together. One of those alloys is Invar, which, in the game, has the recipe of 2 parts iron to 1 part nickel. This was where I first heard of this alloy, so I found it an interesting coincidence that a similar (if not the same) alloy is mentioned here, as being used for battleship armour. I know that alloys don't usually have such a neat and tidy ratio of components, as what's used by the game, but I think they simplify it so it's not a chore to make alloys; the game should remain fun, is what I think their aim was.
The knight who say NIckel
We are the knights who say.... Ni!
i hope everyone on the team had a great summer vacation
Love the Professor and Vids! Thanks!
Ammonia atoms! Oops professor
Just slip - he probably meant _ammonium atoms._
;)
or groups
That wouldn't be correct either.
Ligand.
Brad Schmor ligands are formed after the ammonia molecules are bound to the nickel atoms
We are the knights who say, "Ni!"
boo
Nice explanation 🙏
Thank you for the knowledge of nickel.
Why no Nickelback in the back?
Eh Americans call bumpers... Bumpers. Fenders are the parts of the body that surround the wheel wells
I am told that Fenders are guitars.
I hope we live forever...I would love to work with this professor forever!
Brilliant vid! Love this channel :D
isn´t nickel also a ferromagnetic element?
It is. :)
:)
Wouldn't it be Nickelmagnetic? Damm you iron for taking out everything!
I’m vaping on nickel coils am I going to die?
yes
that depends, some peopel are alergic to nickel, most people aren't.
+Windhelm Guard
No, it doesn't depend.
Death is everyone's destination, I'm afraid.
Nope--the vaping coil is a nickel-chromium alloy making a resistive wire. No problemo. Same thing in hair dryers and toasters.
Huff jenkem like normal people, you degenerate.
One correction. The nickel in the Sudbury basin was not delivered by the meteorite, but rather the meteor made large fissures in the earth's crust and the nickel (and copper and precious metals) came up from the mantle. That's why so much of the ore is deep. Several mines are going to start drilling deeper shafts: 2kms plus.
Atomic Weight 58.6934, density 8.908: Nickel is also a component of stainless steels, and more exotically it is a key ingredient in the nickel-iron superalloys used in jet engines.
I liked Nickel back when it was cool.
Ni back was never cool. Never.
I like his hairstyle! Thumbs up if u too. xD
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Amazing, video. Thanks
I love this channel!
Has Neil ever said anything? Or is he a telepath who doesn't need to communicate in human language?
That model looks like a quadrupeldildo
Ah Ludwig Mond! I work in a country house that is literally across the road from one of his plants. In Clydach Swansea. There is a statue of him in the village.
Another worthy mention of the area is Harry Grindell Mathews who had a private air strip nearby and a laboratory at the nearby Amman valley. Many a clever idea from that chap.
Thank you again professor!
