!!!Cleaning Pennies!!! (?REALLY... WITH KETCHUP?)

[Socoolscienceshow]

@zeblueor2213 what do you mean???

[smellpickle]

the police should eat hotdogs instead of donuts. to clean all them drity coppers.lol

[Socoolscienceshow]

@smellpickle Haha :) although I doubt anything can clean up them coppers :D

[smellpickle]

@Socoolscienceshow how about mustard filled glazed donuts?

[Socoolscienceshow]

@smellpickle nope no nothing gunna clean up them dirty coppers :D

[MusicTewns]

This video makes me fear for my life.

[Socoolscienceshow]

@MusicTewns WUT O_O Whats there to fear? You have nothing to fear but fear itselfs :D

[WilWaswatchingwhales]

This is so cool! Now I can clean all the pennies I have with all the spare time I have. So productive!

[Socoolscienceshow]

@WilWaswatchingwhales thats right when you have down time, its a good time for science time :D

[samsophia16]

you are like jim carrey

[MrYodogson]

i watch 60 of your videos ask me anything about them and i can name all 60 of them your rock

[Socoolscienceshow]

@MrYodogson How many different hawaiian shirts do I wear? Haha

[MrYodogson]

he is so cool all of his videos

[Socoolscienceshow]

@MrYodogson Thanks :D

[Socoolscienceshow]

@superflydemon oh haha I get it now :)

[MultiBaseball15]

@superflydemon wat u get horny ????

[superflydemon]

2:24 LOL

[Socoolscienceshow]

@superflydemon I guess I dont understand whats so LOL here

[billeybop]

Good job! I liked it!

[pdahlke98]

why is most of it silent???

[Socoolscienceshow]

@pdahlke98 cause you probably dont have the codecs on your compute to play the file I used o record the sound for this science file.

[owen402005]

Hey we buy the same mustard :) Also are those Canadian pennies?

[Socoolscienceshow]

Thats pretty nifty that you buy the same mustard. :)

Yeah no bank would take those pennies so I said I'll put them to use in a science file :)

[warhawkpro]

fantastic editing chris

like how you blew away the salt!

so the vinegar dissociates NA+ and CL- and the NA+ combine with the oxide OH- so then the copper is free!

im wrong i think....

[Socoolscienceshow]

Yeah I really liked the one too =^D

whats happening is the vinagar gives up some electrons to the salt which breaks apart into NA and CL these atoms then become electrified or energized. The CL atoms now electrified work with copper atoms breaking apart of the tarnish atoms thus you get clean pennies.

[scumvillage]

Pennies are coated with copper oxide when they are made.The copper oxide makes the pennies look dirty,but they are really not.When the pennies are placed in the acid copper oxide gets dissolved in the acids making the pennies clean.

[wesleypipes17]

Instead of doing that you could have done it the long way which is getting hot sause like tapatio and put a penny there for an hour and BOOM!!1 clean oh and thanks for the invite

[Socoolscienceshow]

Your definetly welcome for the friend invite. You sure can do that, but for this video I wanted a quick 5-6min expirment that could be done quickly.

[Socoolscienceshow]

Your welcome & good luck winning the science fair

[NoHopeForGays]

we did this at school but we did sometime like plating the pennies with zine and heated them and they changed back to the way they would look if they were new. thanks for the friend invite also

[Socoolscienceshow]

I think you mean zinc. :) You can also plate quarters & brass the same way you plated the pennies. I was going to do that, but zinc isnt as common in peoples houses so I stuck with vinegar & salt.

[samerh3]

thanks helped me with science fair
