A red hot nickel ball placed on sea salt and kosher salt. Salt melts at 1,474 degrees Fahrenheit / 801 degrees Celsius. SUBSCRIBE- shorturl.at/adk02 FACEBOOK- shorturl.at/ilrH2
I'm guessing that the Kosher salt has been purified at sometime during the manufacturing process... That, or there's a distinct difference in molecular structure.
It's nice to see a RU-vid channel that has grown by leaps and bounds over the years and is still just a title, and the stuff we came to see, and that's it. No clickbait, no pleas for patreon donations, no sponsors, just the good stuff. Keep it up, carsandwater!
LOL. Seriously? Salt (in this case Sodium Chloride) melts at 1500 degrees F (aprox 800 degrees C). That's essentially the melting point of steel. He's never going to get molten salt from any of these videos. 🤣😂😅
@@SergeantExtreme Judging by the video evidence of salt melting in this very video... and also the calculations estimating the RHNB temperature, performed by someone way smarter than me on Reddit... oh, and your dumbass username-- YOU ARE A TROLL GO AWAY.
That's because the sea salt contains other impurities that weaken the ionic bonds. The kosher salt contains fewer impurities, and therefore has stronger bonds.
That's so cool, I never knew salt could liquify on its own. I loved the take with the kosher salt. It was very satisfying to watch it quietly melt like water!
My hypothesis is that the sea salt has a lot of bound water in its crystal lattice while the kosher salt doesn't. Water that gets way over 100C acts like a grounded teenager.
The 2nd one with the koaher salt looks like an aerial view of an atomic explosion fireball, especially the red spreading underneath and the yellow glow slowly subsiding to red
