Sodium in Chlorine gas

[HalfTimesTwo]

So I guess you could save money and make your own salt eh?

[weegeeluv3r]

@HalfTimesTwo not really. the cost of pure sodium and chlorine and the stuff to make this would be a lot more, so just buy it. :)

[HalfTimesTwo]

@weegeeluv3r lol i didn't realize that

[jjjc20]

like this if u r a sec 2 and ur teacher told u to watch this.

[oblarghhhhvious]

I know a joke...

2 Chemists walk into a bar (thats the first joke)

The barmen says "i'll give you any drink you want so long as you give the appropriate chemical formula"

The first man says "I'll have some H20 please!"

The next says "I'll have some H2O too!"

[rayandreina]

@oblarghhhhvious LOL!

[stmc247]

Can you eat it? i mean it's salt right? Can i use it for cooking?

[pooppeeyoupants]

@stmc247 no i dont think so... it still got traces of pure sodium and chlorine, so, thats why chemists never eat stuff made inside a test tube!

[RashiD1G]

eat it

[NikeSuperfly17]

it's just so great!!!!

[alexc475]

lol its funny how a poisonous gas and silvery metal makes something tasty :D

[Yangjazon]

@alexc475

dont 4get about the fact if u eat sodium, you will blow up from inside out...

[marcusduck]

@alexc475 since when does salt taste good?

[schmelzbrot]

@marcusduck Have you ever tried eating a steak without salt? Doesn't taste at all :D

[TheGzeus]

@schmelzbrot I disagree, I found cooked meat to always be fairly tasty, and good raw steak (well, cold rare. seared and served) to taste quite similar to fried eggs.

I don't eat any of the above anymore, though.

[allseriousness]

@alexc475 Hydrogen and Oxygen are both extremely flammable, however their combination, water, is something used to put out flame!

[b43e65f77]

But if you don't heat the sodium , the reaction will not happen?

[4Get2Crunkin0]

@b43e65f77 you dont have to heat it. just place it in a beaker on top of sand, fill the beaker with chlorine gas and add a drop of water to the sodium, which starts the reaction

[b43e65f77]

@4Get2Crunkin0 but if you just place it and don't do anything,the reaction will not happen?

[4Get2Crunkin0]

@b43e65f77 thats right nothing will happen

[vmelkon]

@b43e65f77 The solid sodium would get covered by NaCl and the reaction would stop.

[FR0MDAS0UTH]

INHALE EXHALE!!!

[rabbitsib]

"Kosher" Salt the hard/dangerous way not table salt. Table salt has been Iodized

[rroge5]

is that safe to eat?

[Kevin4779]

yes

while Cl2 will kill you...salt is salt

[rroge5]

cool

[TheFreakonthenet]

@rroge5

yes, it's just regular table salt after that :D

[rroge5]

cool !

[x0cezar0x]

Cadê o teu Deus agora?

Where is your God now?

[IamAwesome265]

Same place hes always been... in heaven, How does this effect that at all? people like you....

[kyleman1313]

thanks! i think I'll make some fresh table salt tonight!

[Choosilicious]

if onlly i can use methane, then i can collect free gas when my brother farts.

[darksideofthebrick13]

lol.

[teeniemarie25]

That is actually somewhat of a myth.. Only way methane is in your brother's fart is if his normal flora in his gut contains the methanogenic archaea.. which is very rare! Only a small percent of the population can light their fart on fire :P

[dragonridley]

@teeniemarie25

Well most farts contain H2S, isn't that flammable?

[BluesCluesJ3rkSquad1]

@dragonridley its CH4 which is methane gas

[dragonridley]

@BluesCluesJ3rkSquad1

CH4 itself is odorless. The odor comes from H2S.

[Agentoxedo07]

@dragonridley Holy-Terrorist:>*=* H2S + Cl2 = 2xHCl + S of chemical reaction stuff!

hydrogen sulfide(H2S) is toxic!

[mynamesjimmyg]

you can't eat sodium metal! it's poisonous, very different to the sodium chloride you get in your typical table salt

[zackzero0]

Though the metal it self is poisonous as soon as it becomes sodium chloride it should in theory be safe to eat

[sasuke664]

... is it safe to eat?

[T3hPhilosopher]

lol

[deaftodd]

have you tried that stuff for your dinner?

[MrGameAndWatch00000]

Thanks how I make salt jk

[dzedajusr]

annyone know how to make chlorium from NaCl with electrisity?

[wattapassa]

yeah. take a rod of carbon, take a stick of tinfoil, put a 9v current through some saltwater. you will be catching hydrogen at the anode and chlorine at the cathode.(?)

[ohlookaflyingpig]

my teacher tried to do this experiment but the reaction wasn't as good, it only worked the third time and just burnt a little

[wattapassa]

using a drop of water assists the reaction

[k0ghost]

well never have salt shortages

[blazing1hound]

basicly its bleach and salt -.-?

[nitrex]

Bleach isn't chlorine, its Sodium Hypochlorate.

[HorsieProductions]

pooop

[sorakairi1993]

SALT!

[ulflaviobria]

sodium flame is the best!!! If you try with

BaCl2 would be better... a lot of surprises...

[TheFluorineMartyr]

Both alkali metals and halogens are both highly reactive - I'm dubious that the sodium needed heating. It's a shame such a reaction procures such a stable compound. ^^

[nitrex]

Of course its a stable compound, i mean normally elements react to form a stable compound, unless they are unstable and they are forced to react, its nature of compound because very reactive. Thats why most Nitrogen compounds are used in explosives.

[midguardz]

This puts u off salt for life. Who wants to eat bits of flaked off metal fibresmay as well chew on some rust from an old paper clip.

[narcoti]

what video is this???/

[llamaluvr123]

there r beta reactions adn i cant understand a word of dat

[Kriskronqui]

if you dont know whats going on, dont claim its weak

they made salt from a metal and a gas during a pyrotechnic show

[llamaluvr123]

i no wats going on, im not a kindergartener, i took chemistry. and if u don't know sum1, don't call them an idiot, which is what u just did.

[Kriskronqui]

well, from your spelling, I'm guessing I was right in making that assumption.

[llamaluvr123]

my assumption is that you are too stupid to know what "chat-speak" is.

[ThyMole]

I r guss, it r kewl rite?:O lolololollolo

[shreddakj]

TABLE SALT!

[nitrex]

No its not table salt. Table salt is Iodized.

[shreddakj]

true, but same basic substance.

[hellrazor12]

Iodizing is only an optional thing that out health departments do so we can get iodine in our diets since it only comes from really green vegetables. If you compare diets, not a lot of people go around with spinich but tons have big macs and such. As i said before its only an optional thing. And yes, the stuff in the ladle is eatable, but i have no idea what crazy idoit would eat pure salt.

[nitrex]

Actually you mean edible. The salt that was just made isn't edible at all, it just finished through a reaction but not a complete reaction, there are a few impure substance on it like chlorine, so it still makes it toxic to ingest it. Also Salt is evaporated from Sea water rather then made.

[hellrazor12]

Yes edible... but that really wasn't really my point of replying. My point is that table salt doesn't have to be idodized to be table salt.
