    Huh, I've noticed before that whenever I make a batch of Kimchi out of red cabbage it gradually changes color from dark muddy purple to florescent pink over the course of a week as it ferments and sours. Now I know why!

  • @mrbullseye
    @mrbullseye 11 років тому +5

    Good experiment, and good explanation. I would however want him to stress the fact that you never put the water into the acid. It is always the other way around, since otherwise, the reaction can be very exothermic and start to boil and splashing acid around. It is good to reinforce these points early so they are in the back of peoples minds when they start to experiment with more concentrated solutions or heavier stuff.
    Peace!

    Friends and I derped around during lab for our acids/bases lessons and we managed to mix something that smelled and looked like red wine! Had a bunch of indicators like blue pea flower, red cabbage, and a lot of random chemicals available on the bench like sodium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid, methyl orange, etc. It was super fun! :D

    Yeah I agree. I literally cannot notice the shakeycam if I am actually watching the guy on screen rather than looking at the edges. I can look back and forth and it's instantaneous; edges=shakey, center=normal.
    Either one of two things is happening; a) some people are unusually sensitive to movement, or b) it's youtube and the comments section exists for people to complain about trivial things.
    ... maybe both are true.

  • @LaKravenStudios
    @LaKravenStudios 11 років тому

    Worth noting that water is RARELY neuteral (tap water, for example, contains trace amounts of Fluorine which is acidic).
    Just because it wouldn't change the colour of your indicator, doesn't mean it's PH-neuteral... just that it's the same PH as the water your indicator was disolved within. If you took two different water sources (bottled and tap, for example) the indicator may indeed change colour slightly as one will likely have a different PH to the other.

    Absolutely loving this, fantastic presenter, but i just kindly alerted a teenager of an older target audience than this video to please not pick up a pile of powdered sodium hydroxide between his bare fingers. Be playful but a drop of that lye declogger could put an eye out so do drop warnings. A playful way to do this is to flash hazmat symbols with a buzzer briefly over the products of substantial risk, they will have memorized it in no time at all and its a visual serious reminder that doesnt alter the pleasant flow of the demonstration. it conditions the kids to have safety on their mind when handling reactive substances. Most lab accidents happen because of routine overriding care.

    He's not "gangsta", I agree, but he's almost certainly from a West Indies (Caribbean) background. Lots of people from those places moved to the UK in the 70s, and they have a distinct accent which sounds a lot like "gangsta" accent, but is distinct from it.
    Well, maybe "gangsta" culture is trying to imitate Caribbean accent, I don't know. At any rate, it doesn't concern Jon.

    so thanks for this a whole lot!! :) ⚗️🧪👩🏾‍🔬 🧫👩🏽‍🔬 🧪🌹🌱
