  • press 8 for a epic zoom in to niel

  • Is this how Einstein performing an experiment and a power point would look like.?

  • ooo a lecture yippe! :)

  • his hair defines gravity! :D

  • its professor from back to the future

  • Heimerdinger?

  • "On the Earth's surface, where you and I are at the moment" With todays technology we can easily watch your videos in a plane within the stratosphere.

  • just curious as too dissolved ozone's characteristics found in some water bottles

  • 4:06 Thats what she said

  • who edited this video?

  • @jrrj1990 a guy who breath too much oxygen !

  • and boom goes the dynamite...

  • can u guys make a video for the mineral olivine please

  • wooohoo, and there she blows! lol XD

  • "Generally, you only make liquid oxygen by mistake, not like today when we're making some on purpose."

  • I love science so much for awesome things like this.Science is the closet thing we have to magic,so If I cant be a magical wizard then I can become a scientist.

  • Id love to study Chemistry science, only for Prof's lectures. :D

  • at the end the guy in the back look like he from breaking bad

  • @jojo19001

    Lol, I was thinking the same.

  • Breaking bad xD

  • Test tube on a string and match on a stick? The university of Nottingham is VERY high tech.

  • It hasn't been a good day unless you've blown something up.

  • LOVE SCIENCE!

  • So is Neil a professor? Or is he an assistant?

  • @MrSuednym Neil's a lab tech at the university. 

  • Did you guys hear? Oxygen and Magnessium got together! OMg !!

  • @darkbrayan1 actually its MgO cuz u write cation first and then anion hehe :D

  • @darkbrayan1 nice try but no cigar

  • I wish he was my professor :P

  • Try To Put Your Hand In That Liquid Oxygn Hahahaha

    Less Than Half Second Your Hand LL Become ICE

    Dont Try This At Home So Danger :)

  • @nofallyaqoo Stop putting a capital in front of every word. It's annoying.

  • @cheezmasterz1103 yeaH, thaT annoyeD mE toO.

  • @cheezmasterz1103

    ok sorry i apologize

    happy christmis and happy new year :D

  • i want that proffesor to take a visit during one of our next tedious lessons on chemical reactions and catalysts

  • i might be getting my vocab waaayyy wrong, but is that substance that he ignited called oxy-cotten? or oxy-wool?

  • Professor got swag

  • Einstein wanabe?

  • i never learned that oxygen trick :/

  • Would have loved to have had these guys as chemistry teachers in school

  • Did I hear the Prof. say 'Comrades' at the beginning? I hope so and I hope that he was not being sardonic. I think that it is Great to regard each other as 'Comrades' !

  • i really admire teachers or professors who make students love thier subject

  • Comment removed

  • " If it wasnt for the ozone in the upper atmosphere all of us would be if not dead ;certainly very much less confterable than we are at the moment." That made me crack up when he said it with his facial expresion 4:50

  • This video has excellent editing, very riveting, good work to whoever edited this.

  • Any reason why Neil is so buff?

  • That hair is fucking silly.

  • Prototype professor.

  • wow, every time I watch these videos I learn something new, I had no idea that liquid dio had magnetic properties, or sorry , reacted to magnetism. Has you chemistry department ever thought of doing television broadcasts?

  • white power 1:08

  • I wish I had gone to that university, people seem glad of sharing their knowledge... in contrast to what occurs in my university :(

  • Comment removed

  • Prof P. for the role of Walter White in the BBC remake of Breaking Bad!

  • chemists are scared of liquid oxigen...nice!

    you only make liquid oxigen by mystake, not like today that we're making it on purpose LOL

    the videos are great!

  • Can you really store it in a flask?

  • 4:09 thats what she said

  • If he died his har black .. It would look like a fro =P

  • yuck. I heard him say welcome to lecture. Thumbs up if you feel the same way.

  • Talk about looking like a Mad scientist!!!

  • @AntonioVassZanBomber talk about something to talk that you can talk like i can talk for you to talk about mad scients talking about something ...lmao

  • @joshuatube511 You confuse me

  • @AntonioVassZanBomber its just a simple matter of science cause with science you learn thing that you have to lear so you can learn to teach somene so that he can learn something to learn to teach it

  • @AntonioVassZanBomber He's perfect !! IMO it's what a chemist prof SHOULD look !! .. i want one at home ! =o)

  • Does superfluid oxygen exist?

  • @knugie No.

  • 4:08 Boom goes the dynamite.

  • isn't ozone just oxygen that has been exposed to UV rays ?

  • @DrBones666 who said ?

  • @flyingchimp99

    Well, you could say that I guess. UV Rays are involved in the production of Ozone from Oxygen, but Ozone is not simply Oxygen exposed to UV

    Oxygen Molecules, O2 are hit with UV Rays, which give enough energy to split it into 2 single Oxygen atoms, known as "Free Radicals" due to it's unpaired electrons (which it wants to pair up). These highly reactive radicals then react with another O2 molecule, bonding to it and forming Ozone or O3.

    O2 + Energy ---> 2O*

    O* + O2 ---> O3

  • i cant believe liquid oxygen is magnetic!!! That seems totally unintuitive.

  • all those lucky students in the very beginning. I want to take one of his lectures!

  • I wonder if the dude with the afro is a virgin

  • @anybodykilla92 No, he is married and has kids.

  • "take makeup off your 'partner'".lol

  • @analyzingfunny

    just after you've wiped your babies arse

  • @donnyab  what? you mad bro?

  • 4:08 :L "Woohoo! And there she blows"

  • wow, no reason to be careful, if you almost pour it on your shoe, what is the risk right?

  • does the magnet affect oxygen gas too ?

  • is it possible to drown in liquid oxygen?

  • @phillipdogyface Yes, it would be a death most painful.

  • @NoahGoob lets say for whatever reason, you were immune to hypothermia... lol

  • @phillipdogyface hmm. Even though the oxygen is still the same besides temperature and state of matter, those would both influence the way it travels through your body. I am still going to go with yes, but I am still just as curious as you are.

  • Marvellous. All hail the lone unpaired electrons.

    Seriously though, liquid oxygen is not your friend.

  • @jrcgarry All oxygen kills you in the end. It should be banned ;)

  • Really useful, thanks:)

  • is that wool the scientist's hair???

  • EXAM PAPER

    TELEGRAPH

    02086436515

  • can you guys do a video explaining that apparatus for making liquid oxygen..

  • Ich mag Chemie nicht. Ich mochte Chemie nie.

  • hahahaha "careful of my shoes"

  • @NarcolepticFilmer You would have fun in college. With that sense of humor.

  • @Spazzycat14 its a good job you're mr fucking hilarious then isnt it?

  • @NarcolepticFilmer Uhm. proper grammar and punctuation would help me decipher your internet language.

  • @Spazzycat14 I'm sorry but I fail to see where I made a mistake in my past comment

  • Looks like Peter Griffin's favorite teacher Mr. Fargus

  • Comment removed

  • Very interesting, especially with that ball of hair that the professor have.

  • It would be cool if PeriodicVideos did a clip about ozone. It is virtually impossible to find a picture of ozone, let alone a video. All you can find are tons of stuff about ozone layer, and boring "water purifiers". But no real ozone. I've seen only small ammounts of gaseous ozone and that's it. It would be cool to see it in liquid or solid form, or do some nice experiments with the gas. I know it's dangerous, but fluorine is worse, and you filmed a clip about it, too.

  • @theundeh and dont be takin my line "according to my calculations" not cool to copy what i say

  • @theundeh stop motion is somethin u obviously cant do. U probly cant do anything period. Wow and u dont even have any videos, thats sad bro. All u do is listen to that heavy metal crap, r u a punk or something? Maybe one day ull get hit by heavy metal

  • @KENNY200056 cuz this vid had a crazy looking guy on the front of the vid, and he looked like he was bout to kill somebody! So according to my calculations, ur all nerds for likin this crap!

  • @MistaG625 Dude you have lego stop-motion uploaded. According to my calculations, you are a fucking loser.

  • Nerds!

  • @MistaG625 why would you look this up just to say nerd.........are you a dumb ass?

  • Excellent videos. Keep'em coming, they're greatly appreciated!

  • 0:56 THATS EINSTEIN? WTF?

  • neil is always bullied =[

  • neil is kind of hot

  • so could this be why iron is so badly affected by oxygen? it's magnetic properties drawing the oxygen in faster than flourine, chlorine or the others, and the fact that iron is missing so many electrons means it's more reactive than cobalt or nickel? also the blue color of oxygen, could that be what gives rise to the blue color of the oceans?

  • @drewnickel uhh, no.

  • @drewnickel 1) you don't normally get fluorine or chlorine or others in the atmosphere, no connection

    2)hell no, Rayleigh scattering

  • @r0galik it was just a guess. I'm new to chemistry and am steadily learning, but even if I studied chemistry all my life I still wont know everything. considering I've been doing chemistry the past 6 months that's not a whole lot of time.

  • @drewnickel but you should've noticed that they were talking about liquid oxygen's blue color. Gaseous oxygen is colorless.

  • @r0galik good point there

  • has anybody else seen this on the news about matter and anti-matter

  • how is it that a prof this awesome can be so humble? all of my profs treat us like pigs.

  • Did you know Soda came from the Chemistry Lab?

  • until these videos, i def undervalued the importance of the match on a stick, as a scientific instrument.

  • Heat, oxygen and fuel, Brodey

  • Thank you for what you do. I always write the same comment on every video you make. Mario from Rome.

  • I don't understand the similarity between oxidation and burning. Aren't they two different things? Don't worry... I'll Google it!

  • I'm starting to get the impression my school was VERY dull... All these experiments that "everyone" does were never done at my school... =\

  • @Versudan This is a university though, not a school.

  • @Heavyassalter I'm pretty sure he mentioned 'school' though when he said everyone did it, not university.

  • dom jolly

  • Please, can you record and post your lessons online?

  • 4:06 That's what she said...

  • Heh, salad fingers.

  • Is the guy with the white hair salad fingers?????!?!?!?!?!?

  • @MrCoonskin LMAO i thought the same

  • The bald dude is way cool! What is his function?

  • As i recall when i went to school back in the 1950's the oxygen to nitrogen ratio was 33% oxygen, and 66% nitrogen with a 1% of other impurities. Recently i checked the internet and it seems that there are some discrepancies. I was in touch with a NASA scientist who agrees that the ratio was as i mentioned; so, i don't know what to say...

  • Why is Bruce Willis helping them?

    why is he in Notingham?

  • niel is the stig of periodic videos

  • Neil...the silent hero.

  • neil is a good person

  • neil looks scary

  • 0:38

    That actually only second favorite sample of liquid oxygen

  • Did you know that the oxygen in earth's atmosphere is being deplet much faster than the planet can mannufacture it? This depletion problem accelerated drastically in the mid 1950's so much so that since then it has been depleted by about 33% and at the rate that it's being consumed i doubt that it will last another thirty years. Is the depleting oxygen going to affect all of the species as it decays more and more? Think about it...

  • Comment removed

  • "So here we have a match on a stick"

    always a good way to start an experiment

  • Scumbag Oxygen:

    "Hey bro, can I borrow your electron?"

    Never gives electron back.

  • @EventisInnovations Forever a cation

  • @EventisInnovations Nerd humor ftw (Y)

  • @WhiteShadow139

    Yeah, knowing basic Chemistry qualifies you to be a nerd.

  • @mike3667 Nay... Finding it funny qualifies you to be a nerd.

  • @EventisInnovations No. Oxygen: May I have 2 electrons? Metal: I'm positive. Oxygen: I'm now negative. Je t'aime. Metal + oxygen = ionic compound. ^^

  • afro boy made this video a win!

  • Thumbs up if you thought about that soviet guy on Brainiac who talks about liquid oxygen.

  • yey communism!

  • So fucking cool!

  • 5 seconds onwards is just the name of the lecture

  • The current atomic theory is a misconception of the evolutionary weave of the energies that form the intrinsic lattices of matter. Protons, neutrons, electrons, neutrinos, positrons, quarks, leptons, byrons, pions, gluons, mesons, kaons are all correspondents of an abstract theory that evolved and continues to evolve from an imaginary plane that bears no value to the reality of nature's codified ways of doing what it does that is of the matrix grid of evolution.

  • Did you know that if you divide earth's diameter by its life to date, and reduce the quotient to the minimal second time period; you will end up with the tiniest conceivable linear dimension that can be extrapolated from two real values which represents the diameter of the atom?The atom is surrounded by an energy field which i've named the EMER's field which serves to bind to other energy weaves and form molecules? There are three categories of atoms. Some don't have an EMER field. Liquids/gases

  • Did you know that currently earth's oxygen is about 21% percent i of the atmosphere whereas sixty years ago it was about 33 % and the planet's atmosphere was a lot higher than 200 miles? As the world's population grows our bodies retain about 85% of water which is about 1 third oxygen and we are constantly exposing metals to the atmosphere which oxidize, and automobiles and industries are consuming oxygen at astonishing rates that's depleting the ratio of oxygen and nitrogen.All life is at peril

  • @jqs1943 no it wasn't, the bulk composition of the atmosphere was gravimetrically calculated in the 18th century, it was 21% then and its 21% now

  • Is Prof. Poliakoff left handed? I noticed he wears watch on his right hand. Also the video was very enlightening

  • @xeroaxlvx i am right handed and wear my watch on the right wrist.

    until you mentioned it i had assumed i was normal?

  • @spankmygimp Hmm, I am not sure, because I am left handed and have always worn my watch on my right hand. So I have no idea.

  • @Top180Zero sure if you wana die

  • @Djinna000 fyi its magnetics how do they work an this video iz cool i was seein if a dumbass would reply an i got one congratulations

  • That fantastic four fucker, when he says' flame on' does he fart oxygen all over himself?

  • MATCH ON A STICK FTW!

  • boring

  • @juggalo450 Fucking elements, how do they work!?

  • His hair and the cotton wool looks the same! :-O

  • 2:25 what a skull 

  • is liquid o2 cold

    

  • @fatchinaman100 liquid O2 is extremely cold

  • these vids are soooo cool, i bet i mma stay all night up to watch em
