  • I am very intrested if that video camera was still functioning after a while ...Working with Aqua Regia in such closed spaces , without a ventilated hood , only amateurs can do . You can have severe lounge injury too ...Aqua Regia is not Cola and Mentos for the kids ...

  • @wontollawolf The camera and our lungs both work fine. All is good!

  • I wonder if there is a version with english subtitles.

  • C'mon people. It's a good chemistry experiece but done carelessly. Please, next time, use gloves. In the vid some of you are coughing. This is a cleary sign of the body reaction to the irritating and and mortal gases.

    And no, it's not suficient to kill a person. At least in that environment but it's STILL a risk to your body as you know..

    I'm sorry for my english but it's the best I can do for a Portuguese.

    Good vid, nonetheless

  • HNO3 (aq) + 3 HCl (aq) → NOCl (g) + Cl2 (g) + 2 H2O (l)

    The fumes are 100% DEADLY nitrosyl chloride and chlorine! And that is just from mixing the chemicals together. The alumnium foil produces Nitric Oxide, which can be absorbed through your skin and kill you. You would be better off to mix baking soda and vinegar if you want to play around with chemicals you do not understand.

  • Oh LAWD. Why is it that everyone instantly assumes none of us know what aqua regia is, or have heard of Wikipedia?

    Foil: WHAT FOIL? There is no foil.

    100%: Firstly Aqua regia degrades quickly, and this was by no means fresh. Even if it was, you imply that the aqua regia is pure. No.... just no.

    Equation: That's for decomposition, not reaction.

    Deadly Absorption through skin, suffice to kill the average adult: My, that's a lot of nitrosyl chloride, in a closed environment of course!!!

  • No, fumes were HCl mainly and water.

  • "nitric oxide" is really nitrus oxide otherwise known as laughing gas. no foil is used in aqua regia, nitric acid & sulpheric acid. also this looked like an uncontained "draino bomb" you mix draino & tin foil to produce hydrogen gas.

    bottem line totaly fake and dumb!

  • Your atrocious spelling shreds my soul.

    Fake? You mean to say my shoop didn't fool you?

  • anyone know what the gas product is?

    Hydrogen?

  • yes thats what i meant lol, my spelling is errr..., well im glad you took some safety but from the video it looked like you were being unsafe

  • oh wow you made nitrosolchloride chlorine and nitric oxide..........and left it to react in the stair way of an appartment...genius right.... more chemistry stupidity.....aqua regia..should not be played with like that.

  • You mean Nitosyl chloride. You might also like to note that the well-ventilated even windy staircase of an appartment block that is mainly empty over the holiday period, did not accumulate enough of any gas to cause significant irritation to us, or any passers by.

  • no "ratiation" either! you dumbass! only RAIDOACTIVE elements produce RADIATION NOT RATIATION

    piss off.

  • ...

    I'm sorry what?

    You can't read?

    I'm so sorry to hear that!

    Now, repeat after me: I_R_R_I_T_A_T_I_O_N.

    Got it yet?

    My, what an appropriate username.

  • yeah cus its realy smart to seal something with increassing preassure within a glas container...

  • It wasn't sealed Tight

  • well then its ok

  • use gloves dude really come on have some sense i dont mean to be rude i just dont want anyone to get hurt

  • Wow man, you're so hardcore, you can fuck around with dangerous solvents! You deserve a prize; I mean, it's not like any other dumbfuck could do this!

  • I am sure innocent bystanders would have enjoyed getting a big lung full of gas, it would probably only have burnt them slightly!

  • Things like that should be done in a fume hood... And certainly not in a place where bystanders can innocuously come and get a whiff of nasty gases.

  • Well rxs632 i am a pretty cool guy and thank you. Also not american, woop woop!! So if you would just like to come out to your friends then give me a call and well.. we'll just see how the night takes us!

  • May Ceiling Cat strike you down for such lewd suggestions!!!

  • I think 2859148908 is a pretty cool guy eh? Trolls AWT and doesn't afraid of anything.

    ^For those who don't get the meme. Don't bother trying.

  • also if CHEFDRC would like to post any more drivel that would be quite brilliant, if only so that rxs632 can rip it out of him again, go rxs632!

  • Also rxs632 sounds the most awesome guy ever and if he ever wants to meet... well you know what i mean!?!

  • I would just like to say this is the best thing i have ever seen and some of the awt that have made comments below do not know what they are talking about!!!

  • I'm so glad to find someone who shares my sentiments.

  • you kids are really lookin' to fuck yourselves in your heads aren't you? you know what these gases can do to you? they can make you high!!! TRY THESE GASES!!! YOU'RE GONNA GET A BUZZ!!

  • happy trashing you be trash and all ok this is the last reply so go ahead get the last word in you weak minded fools

  • For someone who I bore so much, with such a supposedly high I.Q; you are surprisingly ineloquent, and persistent in your disparagement of my supposed upbringing and financial status. Nevertheless, I'm pleased you won't be sullying this comment page with more of your drivel.

  • you are really boring me, what you people did was dumb lets just leave it at that and forget we exist, this is getting very old play with aqua regia, hell drink it, i don't care what you think or who you think you are chances are your poor and WT(white trash)by the looks of where you live so cheers drink up (aqua regia)

  • Happy Trolling.

  • please with the infant skill comment, not to brag but i belong to CAM(cleveland area Mensa) i tested a 176 IQ so blow me tard. Go eat some bangers and mash you pikey fucking loser. What are you 15 or so, go fuck yourself and lets just leave it at that

  • I feel so dirty, feeding a troll such as you.

    But there's no way in hell I'm going to believe any of the above.

  • 1st off dip shit i was unaware of a need to be grammatically correct. 2nd just because i reside in the usa does not mean i am an american. And lastly what you people or should i say human paraquats are doing is retarded, health effects aside some kid may do this a really hurt themselves. Very irresponsible... A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything. RENOB.

  • See Bash 4753 for why you're wrong.

    And you're still displaying the grammatical skill of an infant.

  • thats quite warm your people are fucking stupid inhaling that shit can kill you, but i guess we need to thin out the retards so you people don't breed

  • Says the American with no punctuation, and the grammar of an infant.

    Uh-huh.

  • Use hydrogen peroxide and HCL, now that's really nasty stuff, dissolves thick copper wire in seconds. PS, Not good to breathe the nitric oxides and chlorine guys!

  • dude dis cool but i expected u to mix ALEAST SODIUM MAX Rb or K

  • This was all I had to hand. Sorry to fall short of your expectations. I'd be more than pleased if you're willing to mail me some Rubidium, or preferably caesium.

  • Carborane acid is the strongest superacid. Although it's pretty safe to store. Fluoroantimonic acid is nasty, too. That'll eat right through glass. That's a nice dose of NOCl and Chlorine you're inhaling there. It's rather toxic.

  • i know this is one of the most corrosive substances, but is there any substances even more corrosive that Aqua Regia?

  • aw come on . . . FOCUS your cam on the chemicals!

  • Might Know someone who used to work in a chem lab... Nice Friend, haha, And yes, I know.

  • where the hell you got aqua regia?? I mean thats amazing but i think you know how dangerous it can be.

    I like how the girl laughs at the beginning xD

  • its a mixture of HNO3 and HCL, its one of the most corrosive substances, it can dissolve anything

  • You can buy Nitric Acid (HNO3) and Hydrochloric acid (HCl) from a chemical supplier and mix them. I strongly recommend against this, though, unless you have a very good reason to do it.

  • You should use baking soda to nutralize the acid.
