Periodic Videos - 2010-12-01
We create a so-called chemical garden, and discuss what happened when they did the same thing in space. More chemistry at http://www.periodicvideos.com/
'What time is it?" "Half past Nitrogen"
I laughed too hard when the Professor said, "you don't want chemicals swimming around and hitting astronauts in the face."
Surely sodium silicate is called waterglass, not isinglass. Isinglass comes from the swim bladders of fish, I believe. Nice video - I often wondered how that was done.
What about establishing an Ebay shop with chemical garden sets. I'd buy one, if not as a new years eve gag or something, then just for fun.
It's Boron o'clock somewhere.
Dat clock
i love the music that cuts in
Did anyone else notice that they made the person move out of the shot at 4:57?
4:56 "Hey guys, whats goin o- never mind."
This is Art
Could you do a video on HNO3? It's one of my favourite acids.
3:20 slightly less dense than... my hair.
"i never got to make one. so i became a chemist!"
I made one of these a few weeks back... It was awesome though my chemical garden grew a lot faster... Why's that?
I love your element clock :D
Of course the professor knows Davy Jones. 5:15
I LOVE THAT CLOCK!
That's such a bloody awesome clock :D
awesome! Is this financed with tax money?
6:40
I've made one of these when I was young child and was always amused by the organic like reaction but knowing they were just transition metals. I always was interested in chemistry and this video takes me back. Great video
7:08 Holy Dog look at the poor guy's right cubital fossa. How much blood tests must an astronaut have to go through?
Amazing and beautyfull! It reminds me a bit on natural crystalgardens in some caves.
i did it last year. It's was amazing. The quickiest alt was the F(III) one
This is one of the best videos you have made so far! This one is so interesting. I love chemical gardens.
WOW ! That was beautiful, I've never seen one before. I assume they eventually stop growing, but do they continue to look like plants or do you land up with dirty water ?
that was pretty cool, liked the music and the story at the end. one of the best videos yet
lol my chem teacher has the exact same clock xD
my science teacher ms.wetzle has the same clock xD
Youtube money! This is making the university money :)
@YamiPoyo The cool part about visually representing relativity is the length contraction, which looks totally "un-intuitive".
Thanks for this, but I wish he would have kept his hands STILL!
@mrghostsith i'll grab my stuff! :D
This looks similar to the "growing rocks" toy I got for my birthday when I was about 9 years old.
i made one of these when i was 10. it was excellent
i love the clock on the background.. where can i get one?
I'm so excited! I recommended to my Chemistry Club teacher to do this experiment tomorrow at the next meeting, and he said that we might do it! :) Thanks for the great idea, everyone at Periodic Videos!
that was my intention haha
HA! I love it!
6:20 kinda looks like Patrick Star
a glimpse of Pandora :)
this was a simply brilliant video. i'm going to my AP chem teacher tomorrow and forcing her to show the class on the smart board!
Haha, cool ^^
That's what I call Art!
love this channel
I need that clock!
love these videos!
AMAZING VIDEO! thank you so much
One of your best and most graceful videos! I loved it!

"Whereas most chemical reactions, there's a bang or a flash and it's over" He's definitely not an organic chemist.
