Hydrogen - The LIGHTEST Gas in The UNIVERSE! 

Is there a 4th and 5th state of Hydrogen? Or does it force Helium? If state 3 is Tritium... would state 4 be Quadrium, and then Quindrium? Like 4H, 5H, and So on...

Awesome!

I LOVE your videos! I always learn so much - thanks for making these, and please keep them going!

Haha, yeah i remember that, i was definitely one of the many people that subscribed partly because of the accent. And when i saw him reading the ad, i did wonder if this was actually the first time that i saw him speaking English. It probably isn't, but it did stand out to me. Either way, great to see how close he is to 1 million subscribers, which is pretty insane, when i subscribed he was around the 200K or less, but it has grown quickly during recent years, good for him.

Lol yes years ago! We went crazy on him for not being him. He is the best ❤

@@doriangray2347 Haha, yeah, i love how he pronounces certain things, like how something easily ignites in the "ear", haha. Can't help but imitate and repeat some of his phrases, it's part of the fun and learning. His closing: "And if you liked this video, don't forget to give it a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel, to see many more new and interesting." is a classic. But yeah, it was weird to suddenly hear a perfect English speaking voice, which was actually a good choice in terms of reaching a wider audience, but a lot of us took it as him making a concession because he thought his English sucked. His accent is super heavy, but it's not like i don't actually understand what he's saying. It just gives it a geeky charm, instead of a formal and boring English voice, i'm already subscribed to plenty of those channels. We were all happy when he ditched the narrator after only 1 or 2 videos or something, haha, and look at him now, almost near the 1 million.

@@Games_and_Music most definitely :)

Hi this the first video I'm seeing of this guy. What language does he usually speak?

I made rubies in a potato once

​@@tkaczgames564 care to share your method? I'd like to try

Why does this guy's mouth look different from his words?

​@@Bee-tj8gc subtitles

@@GlazzedDonut the subtitles are in English and the dialogue is in English but is doesn't match his mouth movements

Yep, it is one of the hardest things to store, period. It sucks because it makes hydrogen fuel harder to do than most other gases and fuels.

Exactly I wanted to point that out - hydrogen is most efficient fuel per kilogram, but that is huge volume and the only viable means of storage are high compression and/or cryogenic.

Helium's the only thing worse, of course it highly depends on what you try and store it in.

@@BackYardScience2000 I'm still unclear on hydrides, hydrogen dissolves, forms intercalcenes(fills interstitial spaces) and makes compounds with both ionic and covalent character... Is a hydride just on a spectrum or something? A multi axis gradient of properties? Or is there a better more descriptive terminology? I have an idea to make my own LiH and or LiAlH , dissolve the lithium and or aluminum in gallium and bubble hydrogen through it at about 300°C, and collect hydride precipitate...think that would work?

@@LiborTinka Then how did they manage to get it into zeppelins? I do understand that it tends to leak by all pores and thus very impermeable containers (such as glass) are needed but the reason for compression is only to keep the volume low, what is important for vehicles but not so much for thermogeneration, which can easily enjoy of very large storage tanks, either above ground or underground. Sealing rather than compression seems the key issue.

Just go to this very Thoisoi2 channel, most of the elements are already done.

BORAT 😮

methane is a fossil...

and thanks to russia everyone else who uses it, is ;)

@@utopiavalonis Yes... It is fossil

Being a teacher sucks. Here he can talk about whatever he wants and doesn't have to repeat the same every year.

That's easy. Just look up the definition of pH.

I could have just gone to wikipedia and looked up hydrogen as well, but I like the experiments and explanations of the Thoisoi channel.

Rather go here because we're more interested in the core chemistry than phenomelogical aspects like pH:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Br%C3%B8nsted%E2%80%93Lowry_acid%E2%80%93base_theory Anyhow the "hydrogen" in all that is actually a free proton, alias H+.

Agreed! Like, wtf? 🤔🤨

Right? That really confused me.....

Well you can start your experiments with much cheaper mercury ... if you dare. Hg is way easier to recover than Ga but you need to be careful about wastes (trace amounts can be removed by ionexes, copper fillings or by sulfide precipitation). Both Ga and Hg are relatively unreactive metals so aluminium can be washed out with weak or dilute strong acids. Bases dissolve aluminium, too, but also Ga as it is also amphoteric. Forget complete recovery of the precious metals, you will likely lose 2-5% in the start and pushing for more complete recovery will drive the cost so much it might be uneconomical. Brauer's "Handbook of preparative inorganic chemistry" says that Gallium is 'difficult' to obtain in metallic form in the laboratory - and that textbook handles crazy unstable compounds and complexes as "easy subjects".

Since gallium can be heated to extremely hot temperature, it should be enough that if you bubble methane through it , it should break down to hydrogen and carbon that should reduce the gallium oxide.. enough methane from natural sources shouldn't be hard to get. One of the Issues with that would be getting the oxygen out of the methane. Also, I do not know if that would also react with aluminum, separating the oxides in advance would not be cost effective, but if there's a temperature where gallium oxide reacts with methane and aluminum oxide does not, that might be the way to go... I'm not a chemist yet or I'd calculate the Gibbs free energy, or something like that, to know if it would work.

Which turned out to be wrong. So, nothing was predicted

why?

@@advocatusdiaboli1588 because we know it's going to be good without having to watch it. They always are. Always.....

@@BackYardScience2000 Sure, but why shout it from the rooftop? It's good, but not that good. I find it very cringe behavior.

It is. Check out the Toyota Mirai as an example. The problem with hydrogen power is that it isn't free energy. You use a lot of electricity to split the hydrogen from the oxygen in water in the first place, so unless that electricity is renewable then the hydrogen isn't either. There are plans to create solar powered hydrogen facilities that can then ship it around the world, but there are difficulties due to the corrosive and volatile nature of it. The hydrogen essentially becomes an electricity carrier where the electricity used at the facility is regenerated elsewhere. It is very clean though. Electricity+water > hydrogen > reactor > electricity+water

@Michael Gogarty The problem with free energy is the fact that it doesn’t exist 😎

Hydrogen is the smallest element, and because it's so small, it has a remarkable ability to leak through containers. Hydrogen can even leak through solid steel if the steel is dull red hot. Also, hydrogen is the most difficult gas to liquify, it requires extremely high pressures, and extremely low temperatures. Unlike liquid propane which can simply be stored in a steel bottle at 125psi, hydrogen still remains a gas at 7000psi. This means that liquifying hydrogen for more fuel storage is both too expensive for most people to afford, and too dangerous if something goes wrong. (Pressure vessel failures are catastrophic events that are immediate dangers to life and limb) Hydrogen in a way is like electricity, because like electricity, hydrogen first needs to be generated from something else. It's not freely available in the environment. (You literally need to burn water to generate hydrogen) it's very energy intensive. And unfortunately, everything that hydrogen does, fossil fuels can do with much lower cost, much more simplicity, much lower and much safer pressures, and much higher energy density. (More bang for your buck) hydrogen's one and only advantage over fossil fuels is that it does not create CO2. But in today's day and age, the immediate problems of explosive pressures, cryogenic temperatures, unaffordable production costs, and lower energy density outweigh the long term problem of altering the composition of our atmosphere.

I would like know if is possible increase the efficiency of a internal combustion engine using small quantities of the UV light ignitor mixed in the all combustion chamber to promove a quasi ideal detonation at same time, extremely fast and in the perfect piston position.

Afaik not the density, but just the speed at which it burns. The faster it burns (the flame-front in m/s like in solid explosives) the higher pitched the sound.

@@GLITCH_-.- Is it used in some thermobaric bombs?

@@gigabytegb idk. Isn't that just gasoline or kerosene?

I was wondering if I heard that right as well
