fun fact: you can make a touch sensitive explosive out of the bismuth as well with the addition of perchloric acid. Explosions and Fire has a video on it if you search his channel name and bismuth.
Bismuth picrate might be possible using this. Picric acid reacts with a bunch of metals to for sensitive primary explosives, I'm not sure if bismuth is one of them but it would be cool to find out.
from my limited experience when nitrating the temps need to be carefully controlled next trime try an ice bath when nitrating try making gun cotton first then move up to more sensitive controlled nitrations gun cotton is prettty easy if you want some tips hit me up (on gun cotton) my exp is limited

Back yard scientist, front door scientist,…
Will the next one be the back door scientist?🤔
how about a front yard scientist?

5:28 "at this moment he knew he f*cked up"
A rare opportunity to live and tell about it.
That's why I studied chemistry
Think that's why we all studied chemistry 😊
Works great at prevention of explosive colon reactions.
Plot twist, we could see it was piss yellow
If you want picric acid, loads cheaper to start with aspirin.
Yeah, I'd have extracted the metallic bismuth. Cuz it is pretty.
That Tommy's video comment was supposed to be a reply for the touch sensitive comment but I'm drunk cause new years ,You See!
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you didn't work on the Manhattan Project... SMH
Great video, subbed.
this is beautiful
thats not a primary explosive
Yeah 😂 Tommy's video!😂

I found a gem
Front door scientist… knock knock 😂😂😂😂😂
You should have just made the picnic acid from aspirin just to save you from the excess steps
Yes but making it from pepto Bismal gets more views
There’s gotta be a ton of junk mixed in with the salicylic acid.
@@GH-jl2td The procedure didn’t appear to get rid of all of the junk.
Yeah, good thing that did not detonate. Making explosions in public parks is a crime most places. For small explosions, look into Ammonium Iodide.
My bad. Ammonium Iodide may be interesting, but what I was thinking of is Nitrogen TriIodide
Wow, very safe
cool content. I hope your channel does well
try making nitroglycerin and maybe even dynamite from it.
Why not :)
FBI OPEN UP
Make explosive from bismuth
Sure
Needlessly complicated way to make picric acid. Just use aspirin like a normal person lol
I prefer to suffer
@@Thefrontdoorscientist lol obviously.
you should be a bit more careful with this on yt might get a strike
This is rather painful to watch dude. Possibly the most useless worthless video about this topic on YT.
