I spent a summer working in a lab whose main research focus was the reaction of ozone with fluorine gas under a variety of conditions -- they were looking at how CFCs react with the ozone layer. The ozone was generated over a couple of days by electrostatic discharge in oxygen, collected in zeolite in glass tubing cooled by a slush of dry ice and methanol. The ozone was absorbed into the molecule-sized pores in the zeolite. This approximates a liquid state, but is considerably safer than pure liquid ozone, a bit like how nitroglycerine becomes much safer when it's absorbed into clay to make dynamite. For an experimental run, the dry ice / methanol slush was gradually dipped out of the cooler, and the ozone evaporated from the zeolite and was passed into the reaction chamber. Disaster struck one night, with a fire that destroyed the lab. It was determined to have started in the tub with the slush and ozone. Presumably the glass tubing somehow got cracked, allowing methanol to seep in and mix with the ozone/zeolite. This would have combusted spontaneously.
@@Binkophile Heh. This was low-pressure gas-phase stuff, so nowhere near as dire as the stuff that ChemicalForce shows us. This work took place about 35 years ago, and I didn't have a lot of direct involvement with that set of experiments, so I'm uncertain of much of the detail. Considering the nature of the research, it seems likely to me that they would have been looking at the interaction between the fluorine radical (F·) and ozone rather than molecular fluorine, though I'm not certain of that. The radical would be *much* more reactive than the molecule, though it wouldn't be stored in radical form, but generated from the molecule under experimental conditions. My own M.Sc. project was about modelling the reaction (F· + H_2 -> HF + H·). My supervisor for that project was a theoretician who did a fair bit of collaboration with the experimentalist whose work I've been describing.
Since Explosions & Fire can't make any more videos for at least several months, you'll have to make up for his absence by making even more videos, haha.
So glad that this dude did a video on fluoroantimonic acid and busted a popular myth that fluoroantimonic acid is this chemical that just destroys everything on contact and now seeing *PURE* liquid ozone for the first time was pretty awesome! :)
2:50 - Finally! Thank you. I remember reading that liquid ozone had a nice blue color, much darker than that of liquid O2. I never even saw a picture of it before, until now. I'm impressed, it really is a beautiful color. Especially at 4:44. Lovely indigo color, almost violet!
Awesome video! I've used ozone for sanitization for many years. It's amazing to see it as an indigo violet colored liquid. It looks as strong as it smells!
Great job! I enjoy watching your videos and explanation of the reactions. I love to see more color-changing reactions rather than explosion, as someone may try to replicate the reaction without experience/protection and hurt themselves.
You keep showing us substances and reactions I never expected to actually see. If anyone's going to get HD footage of dioxygen diflouride (the infamous "FOOF") reacting with stuff, I predict it's you. But please don't blow yourself up :)
I have wanted to see this happen for DECADES since I was a kid and saw a big cryogenic storage tank on a tour of NASA that said "DANGER: OZONE REFRIGERATED LIQUID". The Explosions and Fire videos were the first time I've ever seen that quantum mechanical 3 body process-caused deep cobalt blue of the liquid, but this is the first time I've ever seen the true explosive decomposition!! It's amazing! Is the flash purely incandescence from the violence and heat, or if the plastic tube was burning, or if there was some chemiluminescence!
Thank you for making these videos and sharing these exotic reactions. I appreciate your efforts! What you are doing here is earning yourself an excellent reputation.
Hi that was absolutely fantastic to see firstly the real colour of liquid ozone but even more so to see it detonate as Ive only read about such things in old chem books! keepup the great work.
That pure liquid ozone must've been gorgeous in person. It's unfortunate that so many beautifully colored compounds are so nasty. Green arsenic and orange uranium fiestaware comes to mind.
Brilliant and totally unexpected! Personally my favourite video from you! Even as a chemist you dont get to see liquid ozone that easily! One suggestion for another exotic substance would be pure H2SO5 (which forms crystals in its pure form) and should also eat through a lot of stuff.
I discovered you recently, I follow many chemical channels but your content always surprises me. Thanks to your videos my desire to continue my career in chemistry increases. Greetings from Chile!
I would suggest you ask around one of the high speed camera channels. You can either borrow their cameras or do a co-op. Those cameras will be helpful in looking at what really happened. The pain and effort you go through for creating these chemicals needs a complimenting technology to shine to the next level. Kudos on your effort.
You are typical scientist. Much better and more credible than actors from Big Bang serial....👀 Great work with O3. Incredible footages. Hat off and thanks...
honestly you deserve a full cine camera and smth like a phantom v2512... i know the prices are silly but you deserve it more than any online chemist...
I suddenly crave good quality slow mo footage of extremely rare chemical explosions haha! Keep up the great work i'm sure you will get more subs in no time
Could a magnet be used as a filter or collector to make liquid O3 more efficient? BTW, your videos are outstanding. They are educational and entertaining.
Please in the next video try ozonating Toluene! I don't know if it's true but long ago I've seen some paper which claimed the aromatic system in Toluene could be ozonated to form a HIGHLY explosive toluene ozonide. It's likely that you would have to let the setup run for many hours to get it, but it WILL be worth it if it works!
I love the colour of liquid Ozone, and the smell of it is refreshing. I know, it's bad for you (and other things) but still, the smell is nice in small quantities. Keep up the good work Mr Chemical Force, you show some truly unique chemistry that is hard to find anywhere on the net. Considering your knowledge and what you have access to you should have soooo many more subscribers.
Love the info so abstract yet practical in some ways. Ive always been fascinated by chemistry was actually my highest grade in high school and now I work in metallurgy and it gets me more and more intrigued into the combination of these to subjects
What ozon generaotr are you using and how much ozon can it produce per hour? I am currently working on a project involving ozon and i haven't been able to find a generator that fits my needs. I would love to get a link to where i can find more aobut this generator. Very interesting video
I really enjoyed the video. Your content is original and interesting, I hope you can make many more my grandsons are getting started and I will make them like science and learning with content like yours that will be easy because as we all know boys like fire and explosions!!! Thank you sir!
Could you make video about piranha solution? My suggestion is making it with really concentrated hydrogen peroxide solution :D, because everyone make it with 30% solution, which means the sulfuric acid gets diluted by water from it. The video would be very cool to watch :D
01:10 "1. Only can be operated by professionals" No need to worry about that here. :) Pure liquid ozone on youtube... well done mate! Ask Tom to lend you his high-speed cam, I will pay the shipping!
Years ago a chemistry nerd friend of mine pointed out that (at one atmosphere) the melting point of ozone is below the melting point of acetylene, which would allow for the preparation of a "slush" of liquid ozone and acetylene snow. One doesn't get many friends like that.
Its so fun to explore different allotropes of elements that we don't often get to see. Such a shame that ozone is so unstable so reactions with it are hard, but on the flip side it gives us these neat explosions! Side note, you should collaborate with Explosions & Fire to make some explosives out of really exotic elements some day.
The thermal mechanical conversion of light has been utilized in military munition for over thirty years using a alloy of zirconium powder melt blended with antimony and lead ! However the antimony is not part of the reaction and is present only to harden the lead. The key is the release of energy from the zirconium lead reaction to release light
It is quite possible this is the first video with nearly pure liquid ozone online. It's a shame it took this long, but better now than never. I suggest you try to solidify it. Play with magnetic properties of it. Also, try to saturate carbon tetrachloride with ozone.
@Comrad Sam That's called supercooling. Never ever do literal translations. That's not how languages work. I doubt supercooling would even appear with impure samples, and even if it did, it would be manageable.
How far from Finland are you? Beyond the Press have a nice cluster of Cronos cameras they might be willing to share (and they are familiar with explosions)
I really hope you can get 100,000 frames per second camera that’s very high resolution. It would be an excellent thing to have. Could you make tetra oxygen?
Cool video. Question. Is it pressure sensitive like nitroglycerin? That's what it appears. Guessing there is no way to safely collect liquid ozone in any quantity?
Not only you made the first fluoroantimonic acid but also the first clip of 100% pure liquid ozone on internet, every day with you is Christmas
Explosions and fire had a video using liquid ozone from a while back
@@chaegibson720 Concentrated to purple? It needs to be 90+% pure to turn dark purple.
@@Bubu567 He saw it as purple, but his camera didn't pick it up. Which seems to be the case with all purple compounds he has made.

The colour is beautiful! I guess in reality it looks even nicer. The explosions were pretty scary though :D
Wow, you wouldn't expect something like liquid ozone to have the same colour as pen-ink.
The liquid O2/O3 floating and mixing with KI was strangely beautiful. Well played
You should try to test the magnetic properties of liquid ozone, put a magnet to it!
"UA-cam doesn't carry over smells." For that, I am grateful.
Think about how "smell-o-vision" could transform "Hoarders," or "My 800 lb life!"
