Welcome back to the Tommy Technetium channel. A new chemical experiment awaits you in this science video. See how the reaction between copper ions and aluminum metal can be made to explode a can of soda. Chloride ions catalyze the process. Stay tuned for more amazing chemistry lessons!

fun fact: [CuCl4]^2- is actually yellow. But since not all of the hydrated copper ions are converted there will be a mix of “blue” and “yellow” which makes a “green” solution.

@TommyTechnetium 9 месяцев назад

Indeed! Thanks for noting this. You might enjoy ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sldo8s5Valg.html

Ah man...you said this would be a fun fact. I feel duped.

@mtnslice 7 месяцев назад

Technically, the aluminum attacks the copper ions, since the metallic aluminum is your Lewis base (electron donor) while the copper is the Lewis acid (electron acceptor)

The world would indeed be a very different place without passivation.

@TheDeepDiveLLC 10 месяцев назад

This is good to know, doesn't even ring a bell in school. So if you remove the oxide layer of the aluminum would it become transmute to copper? I would like to know for copper recovery after doing a silver recovery.

@TommyTechnetium 10 месяцев назад

If by transmute you mean change into another element, no. The copper metal formed in this experiment comes from the dissolved copper ions

@killpidone 10 месяцев назад

Will the normal copper sulfate solution eat the aluminum if you scratch off the oxide layer while submerged in the copper sulfate solution?

@TommyTechnetium 10 месяцев назад

It will not. Chloride ion is required to breach the oxide layer. I'm not 100% sure what the mechanism is behind how chloride ion does this. Weird, huh?

It also looks just like Kool aid which makes me curious about what would happen if you drank some.

Wait, there is plastic layer with is present inside can, did it react ed with solution?

@TommyTechnetium 10 месяцев назад

I'm not 100% sure...

@juanmemes9487 9 месяцев назад

Perhaps exothermic reaction melted the plastic or aluminium pierced through plastic.

@@vision79 Thank you for your kind words. It might be quite a while before I could get to these; I have other projects currently in the works! 🧪🧪🧪

@@TommyTechnetium Any hint?? Well I'm too curious to learn about hydrogen peroxide. I've seen a bunch of videos but when it comes to chemistry I believe in u, chemistryteacherpill and nile red. U guys are awesome I love action lab shorts too but they aren't about chem always. Plz dude make a video regarding hydrogen peroxide 🙏. I'll be so thankful to you ❤️
