Acid Vs Gold | FlinnScientific 

90% bad joke.

90% talking head disappointment, 10% actual content

Yeah I’m all for jokes but I actually came to learn about the acid...

*many

I can't like your comment because it has 69 likes already :(

😂👍👍👍

is

i dont

Yep

HCL Sorry for the long wait.

Acid common science just don't acid mine

Yes

Fricking Fallon. I knew there was a reason why this guy annoys me.

It's not that difficult

This comment tells just WHY your the “anonymous” cow😏🤷‍♀️just sayin

Must not be a dad than, jokes were nerdy and funny.

True. But you typically dissolve alloy metals first, then use AR on filtered residue, which is mostly gold.

Thank you my homie.

Also, will it melt through plastic containers?

Organic matter is based on carbon. These multiple molecules that form our body for example or plants are pretty soluble. The acid is basically ionised so it desperatly wants to fill up its electrons again. (Ionised means its charrge is negativ or positiv). Batteries work on the same principal. You've got an acid that is reacting with certain elements. The acid will react with the element and will rrelease electrons, which travel through a certain cap, lithium for example. The acid will be saturated eventually which is displayed by the fact that the battery is empty. That is because it used up all the elemental material it was given to or because it was no longer ionised which means it was no longer acidic. So yeah, if you have a high concentration and the appropiate amount you could very easily "melt" organic material. This depends on the material, the concentration of the acid, the influences and catalysts that support or hinder the reaction and many other factors, keep that in mind. Hope that answers the question for you.

Oh and that depends on the plastic in use.

Pudding woooosh! Look at his username, he's making a Breaking Bad joke

Nerijus Urbelis of course it can

Diamond does react with certain acid at room temperature according to my latest discovery

Shanbo26 The biggest danger isn't toxicity, its corrosive-ness.

Broccoli Rob . I'm with you buddy

I am 15 and I know balancing a chemistry formula is backbreaking!

Broccoli Rob 28 here, they’re garbage

Are you the expoert on the algorithm or something? I enjoyed his video and wouldn't have clicked on a 1 minute vid.

Stfu

Redgrin Grumble I'm sorry to hear that, buddy. Let us know if we can help.

Do you know how to cure "great pain"?

I've got a new catch phrase, kids: "I looooooove Flinn Science videos"! BURGER TIME!

Redgrin Grumble Burger time!?

Filip Doba burger time! :)
