Professor, if liquid nitrogen is capable of freezing things instantly and causing the oxygen to condense, how is it that you can touch it with your bare hands immediately after pouring it onto the glove? It couldn't have warmed that fast, could it? (I am not a Chemistry or Science major).
I'll see if my Professor can incorporate liquid nitrogen into our Poli Sci lectures. Maybe during a bit on Russia :P
Liquid nitrogen, although very cold, is at its boiling point. Thus it takes very little heat to evaporate it. Small amounts on your hand will not do any damage because the droplets instantly evaporate.
@StevenRNicholls(in regards to the professor's rebuttal), that's why you sir, are not a science major; and are wasting your invaluable time and money on an education that's meant for spoiled pot heads.

Imagine water droplets on a hot oven plate. They float on a cushion of water vapor. You can handle liquid nitrogen quite safely without gloves, it's even safer considering some could get into your glove, which may cause burns. I sometimes had small 1st degree burns on the back of my fingers, because the nitrogen stuck to the hair and effected a small area for a little too long.
Charles's Law deals with the temperature and volume of gases. Bernoulli's Principle deals with the velocity and pressure of fluids. They're unrelated.
Y'm a student in the first year at the Department of Aplied Chemistry and Science of Material from Polytehnic University Bucharest. Very wonderful course you teach, i wish that my teachers hold courses in this way, that make boardom matter extraordinary interesting, and very easy to understand. With the hope that in future i will participate at one of your course, I say to you good luck, and keep posting this kind of clips.
Great teacher but that was an expensive experiment with the use of liquid nitrogen. He could have done that with hot and cold water but the volume change wouldn't have been as profound.
I've used liquid nitrogen a lot and it really isn't very expensive. There might be $0.50, if that worth in that dewer (that's what it's called) he has. Some cryogenic liquids are expensive, but liquid nitrogen can be purchased in huge vessels for cheap. Most labs and particularly at a University have it around anyway for other purposes.

Yeah, so much easier and funner to learn when you get demonstrations. We do the most stupidist and boringist labs ever.

Maybe that works as well. The rule i quoted is correct however. But perhaps The 2 laws are related.

@robertburkottawa If it takes very little heat to vaporize it, how does it stay in it's liquid state so easily while in the bottle?

great teacher, wish we used liquid nitrogen more. haha

The ideal gas equation combines several gas laws, namely Charles's Law, Boyle's Law, and Avogadro's Law.
