In this video we chronicle another failure in the lab. This time it's the synthesis of acetaldehyde via a hot copper catalytic dehydrogenation. In an upcoming video, I managed to work out the kinks and get this procedure to work.

Just wanted to show them off a little as a teaser to the next set of experiments. I’m going to try black and white photography from start to finish with my own equipment and chemicals.

This is a clip I shot a while back while hanging out with a good friend from out of town. We chucked about 10 grams of sodium into a little bowl of water. I figured I'd actually post it for the public since sodium is fun to watch. I hope you enjoy.
Warning: This is an explosion that throws little burning bits of sodium around, it's dangerous! It should only be attempted by those who know what they are doing!

In this video I synthesize the notorious contact explosive Nitrogen Triiodide. I detail the synthesis and include some footage of detonations that I hope you enjoy watching as much as I enjoyed making them.
