- The process of making acetone from eggshells and vinegar is a rather simple one not including the distillation. However anyone with a distillation setup should be able to do it quite easily
I appreciate your kitchen set up, feels much more accessible than a lot of channels
Thank you, it’s not the best setup I have but it does the trick for now
@@ChemistryOnCreatineBrother, the early video is very good, but when it comes to the steaming and retention stage, I can’t understand it.
Man, i don't know what's up with youtube recommendations lately, but its.. actually recommending content i like??? It's never been this consistent. Point being, Your channel is both entertaining and educational. As someone who has no interest in actually performing chemistry in any extent but is deeply fascinated by chemical processes and reactions, videos like this are my chill zone. Hope to see this channel grow, because it deserves attention. Keep it up!
To get rid of organics I used to soak my egg shells in lye but it was recommended to me to use concentrated bleach and I found that works better... Just thought I'd pass along the tip.
Or just buy a fucking chicken 🤯
@@fermignano89 you mean chalk?
@@fermignano89 🍗 you mean a dead chicken from the market or a living chicken 🍗 😃 I thought only the females lay eggs. But I'm probably wrong.
Calcinating the egg shells before dissolving in venegar. That should get rid off imputies and organics.
Nice thing is to use 10% cleaning vinegar. The shells in the solution should sit for 24hrs. Get a roll of the disposable blue shop towels. Tear a square section off. Run it through hot water to get any lint off the towel. Squeeze it out, but leave it damp. Use it as a filter to get the impurities out into a clean glass jar. If it takes to long to filter the impurities out. You can quicken the method by taking the filter and wrap the overhang of the towel filter in towards the well of the product being filtered and lightly squeezing it into the jar almost like cheese cloth method. Then wash the towel again in hot water to clean the impurities out and then repeat the process for a big batch using the same towel instead of wasting coffee filters. You want the filter wet for better filtering process. You can alo reuse the same shop towel for second filtration after washing as well. Waste not want not. Also after rendering it down in a heat mantle and round bottom flask at 70⁰C filter it into a jar again. Allow it to cool . Now you can do either methanol or ethanol recovery, by pouring into the solution the alcohols I have mentioned to take the moisture out. Since acetate salts don't dissolve readily in water they'll gell or crystallize out. Now separate the gell from the alcohol. You can do one or two things. Alow the gel to solidify or make gel fondant fuel out of it instead of the toxic gel they sell at stores. HOWEVER, safety be noted is that people will roast marshmallows on this organic gel. As the gel fuel burns it gives off acetone. Don't eat the marshmallow or you'll get an acetone filled toxic treat. Yummy. NOT!!!!😅😅😅
Sir I love ACETONE so much (especially its special odor) but could not afford it. From now on, it will be home-made thanks to your instructions and guidance And yes you are doing so much with so little RESPECT
It’s just delicious 🥰
I would recommend distilling it a few more times. After this video I distilled it again and it became a light yellow color but mostly transparent and evaporated much easier in the bottle. I would make an update if I knew how to make one well
Bro is over here huffing acetone lol
This is cool :) I like your crackhouse distillation setup.
Also, I would guess not to do that on a gas stove, lol!
Thank you, it’s made out of the finest refrigerator pipes.
Btw a potential name I was considering for the channel was “chemistry on crack”
@@ChemistryOnCreatine Lmao, that's apt af. You're a national treasure! I wish you the utmost of success with your endeavors, and I can't wait to see more of what you've got cooking!
Lol wait another hour or two I upload weekly
I don't buy it
Lol il do my best into returning the previous frequency, il start in a while tho il have another video in a week or so
Got this idea about a week ago. Now i have a video guide. Nice.
'Yes, I memorized that; no, what's a woman's touch?'
I stopped breathing for a second there, 😂😂😂
Lol, enjoying my bad humour I see?
Nail polish remover is NOT 100% acetone. They add 1% of soap or something like that.
@@ChemistryOnCreatine nah man, that's some S class humor but...i don't know a woman's touch either so i probably shouldn't laugh.
ooh wow thats dope man thnk you so now when making nitric acid i have all this left of carbonate i can wash it and use it to then do this thank you now i know what to do with this shtuff!! Liked and subbed!!
Finally, a real chemistry video, that is my speed. I can't watch these chemistry instructional videos anymore. After watching them, I realize how little I understand.
Besides, who has the money to go out and buy expensive distillation equipment. Something to heat up stuff with. An accurate scale.
A stove, a bit of spare piping, and a random kitchen scale is all you need, I don’t bother with exact measurements unless I have to get something exact. A copper distillation setup like this is pretty effective considering copper is unreactive, but some contamination is possible very rarely. I agree on you about the chemical instruction videos, at first I was confused as hell and thought I needed super fancy compounds to do stuff, like I’ve seen a guy use like the most bizarre compound as an electrolyte, when in reality like kitchen salt would work nearly as well. Chemistry is pretty malleable most of the time, like I could bet I could do this reaction with something like sodium instead of calcium. Don’t think too much into an inorganic reaction is my advice, overcomplication is common on YT
Such nice video you do a great job I must say very informative and clear thank you very much for the experience :)
Of course I speak in the name of added "movements," of the 21st Century. Metaphysical war, not contemporary war etc...with no redundancy or
being wicked with attitudes. This is an EXCELLENT video. Good as a movie.
Love your set up
pure acet. has just been added to the controlled list in my country that's life saving
you could dry the eggshells on a microwave
Thanks.
In a microwave they could decompose to calcium oxide from high temperatures, which but I don’t know for sure they will. I don’t know, could work.
ive done this before (to make stupid flammable jelly, not acetone sadly), you should try boiling the eggshells briefly, then baking them at a low heat to dry them up, and then grind it in a coffee grinder or blender whatever it will work much faster
I believe the right term is decanting (pouring).
Gold. Just like the product
That distillation setup is awesome lol
Thank you it’s made from the finest refrigerator pipes
@@ChemistryOnCreatine gooood!!
You can't buy acetone in California anymore, because of the California Air Recourses Board. (CARB) They suck but this will save me from smuggling it across state lines.
What happens when you do the same process with calcium sulfate?🎉
Do you think she'd be able to get enough heat to make calcium carbide with your egg shells? And if you going to try something like carbon disulfide get a much better apparatus..
@Pete_Venuti the stove you mean? the stove can get no where close to such a heat, i am a long long journey away from making calcium carbide and other high temperature reactions. As for the, this thing is a very very very basic distiller which i made out of a refrigerator pipe lol, its a pretty crude piece of equipment which can make only the most basic reactions, instead of none. I will definitely need and get a much better one in the future...
Great video! Liked and subscribed!
Super! Thank you very much!
So cool!
I was expecting a flame test for the acetone??
You missed an opportunity for FIRE and you didnt take it!
In your setup, I understand you really just wanted to show that its possible, but- see line 1!! That really would have tied it up nicely!
I LOVED IT
you should totally make a flare next, all you need is bittern (evaporating salt water gives you that) then melt it down, then zap it (electrolysis) and then boom, I believe that stuff with give you a big flash. I don't really know how safe it is though so it's up to you if you wanna research that.
I don’t think that would work but I may or may not know how to make one (for recreational uses) so some day after I get the right tech I might (again, for relational uses such as boat signaling)
Sodium perchlorate?
Easier to make using bleach.
Exactly what I was referring to, idk about the bleach part though
@@ChemistryOnCreatine It was Sodium chlorate, sorry.
Buprecholate wouldn't be hard to make from there.
Then convert it to Potassium perchlorate and you get big boom.
Potassium is a little harder for me to get my hands on that’s the issue
I appreciate the simplicity of this video. I just subscribed 👍🏿 💯
can you please give an amazon link for the condenser
How would this reaction go if glacial acetic acid was used? It seems like there would be a lot less water to get rid of by doing it that way but for all I know the water plays a part in the reaction, I know nothing about this reaction.
Also, perhaps you could try drying the distillate with 3Å molecular sieves then cleaning it with activated charcoal followed by a vacuum filtration, you'll bump the purity way up and get rid of any color.
I think it would be the same, the water is pretty useless besides housing the hydrogen acetate gas. In terms of the sieve I have no idea what that is, and my technology is far too unadvanced right now for that
you could have actually just used chalk instead of eggshells. i dont know if it would have been more pure than the egg shells, but it would be cool to try
It would be infinitely more pure than eggshells, but as I had excess eggshells I choose to use those and filter it instead
You Russians are so Funny!!!! I love it and keep it up. (I usually don't give replies or comment on any of the stuff on internet, however, this is
a balanced video and you did mention: "poor" i.e. so-called poor" as well, no doubt as "poor."} AGain: you get the highest marks for lack of verboiceness, humor, direct and doable for anyone. Er......a.......you sound Rusian....(hope I didn't err).
Bravo........wow......cheers
I could see me blowing my house up, surviving and going to prison for trying to make meth.
,can l have the mechanism of your reaction
lol. this guy is hilarious. and i was watching @ 1.75 speed.
when he brought out the copper tubing and flasks.. i was like aw hell nawl..
time to go the store and buy.
4:21 you said sodium acetate but shouldn't you say calcium acetate? Good job by the way!
Haha right oops, ty
Thanks, I was about to ask the same thing.
Didn't expect a taco bell ring at 0:23 lmao
doesnt this make calcium acetate?
I'm neither bored nor planning to make this. I am just a nerd who thinks this is interesting.
I found it interesting too, I just found it interesting enough and had enough free time to try it and post it
Could you have avoided harmful effects by wearing a respirator ? I bet goggles are required too. Perhaps gloves. I got paranoid when you turned on the stove. This looks a lot less complicated than the cumene process.
Thanks again for posting, I'll never get to make it myself, but watching your video gave me something I desperately needed. Confidence and hope.👍
On one hand I could’ve, yet under such small quantities, its just discomfort and no side effects. Thank you for the kind reply, il keep trying on future videos
@@ChemistryOnCreatine ammonia is bad enough, and I smoke tobacco. Cigarettes probably contain acetone too. LoL.
Video had me laughing good job
Thank you thank you I tried
Does it only work with no-frills vinegar, or do you get classier results with loblaws or longos?
Only no-frills 😔
Also, induction stoves only work on metal, so that's why the copper grid.
This stove is actually just electric and not induction. But even if that we’re to be true copper typically won’t work on an induction cooktop. The more you know! :)
so... it's a ketone... derived from, one of the things used in the krebs cycle... is this true?
Honestly i don’t have enough knowledge on organic chemistry to give you an answer
This is Amazing! INSTANT SUBSCRIBE🌻 keep it up!
"Yes, I memorized that, no what's a woman's touch?" Lmao
This is fun but it would be so much simpler to just distill nail polish remover and dry it with magnesium sulfate
Unfortunately I have neither but this works for now
How could you get 'sodium acetate ' from leaving the sludge for some days..!!?!😅
If you had your own mother of vinegar and some beechwood you could make you own vinegar from ethanol. Time consuming but fun biochemistry. Yeast+sugars = ethanol -> + mother of vinegar = vinegar + calcium source = calcium acetate + heat = acetone. Simplified version = hardware store; but where is the fun in that.
Hah that sounds complex yet again it’s hard to understand it from a comment, il look into it maybe il make it that way some day
@@ChemistryOnCreatine Oh, I was just meaning the commercial way of vinegar production was that mother of vinegar was attached to beechwood shavings in an underwater bioreactor as a 12% or lower ethanol was passed downward while air bubbled up through it in a continuous flow, (as far as I remember in my researching it). Anything over 12% ethanol will kill the mother of vinegar.
It was just a project that had caught my interest and I did a bit of research out of my own curiosity, all the while planning my own project on the matter.
I just have an interest in researching past technology to present technology as a hobby as I have a food allergy that makes finding allergen-free foods difficult in today’s mass produced markets.
Ooh sounds cool, I read that vinegar is made form bacteria somewhere, but I never was truly was too curious how it was made. But that sounds cool, if you have any additional reactions which aren’t too complicated of the past or now il hear you out on those
@@ChemistryOnCreatine Yeah, it was a mix of Acetobacter Genus of Alphaproteobacteria producing bacterium that films over and floats on ethanol fermented liquids, but sinks if disturbed too much. Hence the beechwood in commercial production.
Unfortunately I have too many ideas for projects I wanted to do. Some examples were making isopropyl from propylene gas, xylitol from birch wood, making biodiesel by oil extractions of seeds, extracting flower alcohols, making surfactants, homemade soaps, lactic acid production to make PLA, homemade capacitors and resistors, etc., (too many ideas to count), just trying to understanding about every kind of science field of knowledge in order to eventually build a Graviton drive (kind of like a warp drive). But unfortunately I was never financially advantaged to do so. Though I am unsure if me bringing up my thoughts and endeavors is what you were interested in me explaining.
@@ChemistryOnCreatine One of the only things past technology that really was simple or kind of simple is the extraction of methanol by the destructive distillation of wood. Though I am unsure of what kinds toxicity you are looking to avoid or complexity level. There is making your own soldering paste from pine resin and isopropyl, extraction of Turpentine for pine sap, or crystallizing rock salt to a higher purity. I just do not know what kind of stuff you are looking for.
0:29 my ears
💀
My eardrums shattered while rewatching it as well
Any preference to where I should store mixture during time period
Yea away from you, last reply I made I thought you were talking of another video hence I deleted it. The mixture in this video, will reek of vinegar. So keep it like in a garage or outside. You can lid it if you want. If you meant acetone. Keep it anywhere as long as it’s closed and away from any fire
Can I also just go to hardware store and buy my Acetone? Thank you!
I have no idea where the acetone is in mine so this is the best solution to a lack of it
@@ChemistryOnCreatine Solvents section in the paint dept, Whee.
0:30 this is a jumpscare for headphone users
Nice
Welcome to the Walrus Science Show
CaCO,+CH,COOH
>innocent chemical
ACETONE DINDU NUFFINS!
Just a highly flammable nail polish remover, nothing more to see
Wopper wopper wopper wopper junior double triple wopper I rule this day
Both are able to metabalized by the liver but mixed just right is a killer.
Sodium?
I should have left the time you ask me to left..
Try more concentrated vinegar next time
Good luck with that
You can easily find 15-30%
wine cork? Best! 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
Lol a cork’s a cork
I think i would use chalk.
This reaction produces calcium oxide and acetic acid… Thats why you smell vinegar on the collecting flask my dear.
Honestly i think im better off buying the acetone :D
Lol at the time I did this I didn’t even know you could buy it lol
@Chemistry on Creatine really? Atleast here in Germany you can just buy it in almost every hardware store
So can you buy it here tooI just never really looked into it before
Wouldn't happen to be planning a video on synthesis of hydrogen peroxide in the future? 🤣🤣🤣
Between all of the ideas I got of what to make a video on, I did consider hydrogen peroxide at a point in time!
@@ChemistryOnCreatine even though i was joking it really would make a dam good video... I been tossing a couple of different ideas around in my head to mess with or try out... Just never seem to have the free time lately. I do appreciate your content though. My kinda style 😎 Thank you
contents not continents
I wish i could buy pure acetone as a nail polish remover but mfs putting coloring and scent with many more things into it in my country
That yellow weird thing you made is probably more pure than the nail polish removers they sell on here
Just wait till the next video, I purified it even more and am gonna use it
@@ChemistryOnCreatine keep it up i actually like the fact that ur not overcomplicating things and turning those experiments into something like a food recipe even i can understand whats going on there with my ape level chemistry knowledge i like ur videos
I am here, because i have no underwear on, and I am here to party!
The only right way to watch my videos.
@@ChemistryOnCreatine indeed, but keeping away from the picric acid from asipirin for now.... but that was a fun experiment with aspirin, drain whiz, potassium nitrate and cold water. Oh, such beautiful bitter crystals of doom.
@@ChemistryOnCreatine Damn right!
0:24 sub
6:48 mm yes yummy acetone mmm
Turksh translate plz
lmaoo i'd like (not) to see you distilling HNO3 with this apparatus (dont do it)
Lol if only I’d have HNO3 I’ve been trying to make it for ages lmaooo
Vacuum distill it lol
At the moment I do not have the technology for that all I got is a stove and a few pipes. If anything I ain’t even got a stove I can work on now; it broke. So all I got is homemade low level technology so it’s a miracle this thing was built well enough to even work.
why eggs are so much $$$
The eggs themselves I eat buy the eggshells, I can throw them out but I just use them, so I use them instead. They’re a decent source not the best but good for something I was planning to throw out
joe biden
Continents lol
Never combine cooper and acetone... it should be known even by cience noobs
stopped watching. 4.48
Yeah i think i will do chloroform with it 🥴
