*At the 5min mark, I say 1.5g phenanthroline monohydrate, but 5g is written. It is indeed 1.5g though.
About a year ago, I saw one of the weirdest reactions that I've ever seen. It was called the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction, and it's one of the few good examples of an oscillating chemical reaction. I decided to try and do it myself, and this video summarizes the process that I used.

i don’t know why him saying “dirty garden store quality” sounded so aggressive to me
His voice did indeed have an air of contempt. Apparently Nile really dislikes dirty ferrous sulfate.

I like how the waves don't seem to cancel each other when they overlap. They turn into each other. I'd like to see it pushed through a double slit and measure the interference it creates.
yeah, i totally understood what you said
@@mintyminxduo same
Would this chemical phenomenon even be affected by the slits?
@@aryantyagi4915 yeah, cause they're waves. it would be cool to see what happens to the waves if they're passed through the double slits.
Yes, that sounds intriguing.

I voluntarily chose to do a complete reaction model project on this in my college Pchem class and it was hell on earth.
How did it went?
@@wut1727 it WAS a very interesting project, but the prof required us to do all the error regression analysis by hand, which, when you’re dealing with like 4 coupled differential equations, is an absolute nightmare.

@@tThisNThat somehow I did. Looking back, it’s amazing what I was willing to put myself through as a college student just because I was told to do xyz that I would laugh at if told to do at my job today.
wow @Grak70 you are awesome, i hope when i grow up i also get to do intersting projects ( i dont really care how tough it is lol i hope i can manage)
I love it that you explain everything really clearly, making it so even I can /kind of/ understand, instead of just letting it happen. Thank you s2

This channel has taught me that 95% of chemistry is just waiting for something to happen.
And 3% heating/cooling then 2% messing with ph
More like 95% of science in general
95% is failing and trying again with small variation --
And filtering
I think 95% is cleaning glassware and disposing of chemical waste
The last reaction was by far, the coolest. The blue flashes were so dang beautiful. this is probably my favorite chemical reaction, in terms of visual effects
Your narration is awesome. I’ve been a chemist for over 20 years. I now read experimental sections of papers mentally hearing your voice and it is lot more fun than in the past when I mainly heard my voice saying ‘what the @&$ is this guy doing?’ Love what you’re doing.
Would you consider leaving on a red cloth regular table lamp in the bedroom and a tubular vintage oval bulb desk lamp in the office, and seeing which type of bulb burns out first after a while, "doing an experiment" ? .,, ;
Youre probably the only chemistry channel that is worthy of watching a 3 in the morning
Yeah
It is 3:03 in the morning and i can confirm
fr tho
Same
It is 3:08 so ur not wrong
Whenever Nile describes his experiment process I can never tell if he failed or succeeded with each step
True same
I think he makes it that way
That is because it isn't failure, it's learning. Failure is when you quit without completing what you set out to do, without exploring all possible options.
I understand litterally NOTHING when you explain how it works, but it's just interesting enough to watch! Your normal videos aswell as the clips, are fasinating!
Niles buys so much off Ebay that I wonder if there is a whole grey market of chemists stealing bits of chemicals from work to sell.
He has relatively recently explained that you used to be able to buy so many more chemicals (many more than is reasonably safe to ship ordinarily) than you're able to nowadays

It's so bloody awesome to see a real-life (and totally O.G!) reaction-diffusion (RD) reaction! So cool! I've been very inspired by BZ for many years myself as well. Self-organization / pattern-formation is an utterly fascinating phenomena!
I am not a chemist, but have played with digital simulations in this realm a lot (examples on my channel).. and I wonder whether it might eventually be possible to find a real chemical reaction that supports moving solitons (sorta the RD equivalent of gliders) or even just a chemical version of Gray Scott RD (which already contains moving/spinning solitons for specific values of parameters F and k).
Sounds potentially complicated but I think that could be a really cool thing to explore! Love your work, huge ups!

I wonder why most Professor's and Teachers make chemistry sound and look so hard, but when this guys explains it, it makes it so easy to understand.
Chemistry is a hard subject because of its contradictions , here is the electro chemical series and it's uses and afterwards they say "well after a certain temperature aluminium can reduce magnesium because of gibs free energy and stuff now, look at this ellingham diagram " . I think honestly science as a whole is confusing, i don't fully understand how a zener diode functions on a theoretical standpoint to this day yet i know what it does (this still haunts me to this day) and at somepoint you have to give up especially with things like inorganic chemistry where things stop making sense to you at molecular orbital theory unless you accept you will never feel satisfied but my physics teacher taught me something cool " most stuff in science will boil down to lose energy to gain stability " which helps in keeping my brain semi content in most cases

UA-cam is an incredible platform for learning. I think a lot of people (eg: me) are quite visual learners, and just by being exposed to explanations by people who know their stuff and also make it interesting, information sticks over time and you start to be able to build on previous things.
I started about a year and a half ago with electronics videos, barely remembering V=IR from highschool, and when I first started I was lost quite a bit, but picked up little bits at a time on several different channels. I now can understand just about any schematic shown and understand and can follow along complex topics. I'm hoping to get the same for chemistry, as my one university clsss I took on it had a lousy professor and it has always kind of stuck in my craw. As the OP said: I may not have fully understood the exact formulas and mechanisms of each reaction shown, but the general idea of reduction and oxidation reactions cycling, as well as the idea of diffusion producing the wave effects made enough sense that I had a decent picture working in my head.
Cool video as always.
