Good experiment! I have some critcique after seeing a couple of your vids. The production value seems a bit goofy. Like the intro logo/swoosh sound feels really corny to me and the BGM sounds like it was made with a casiotone keyboard. Again this is just my opinion, but it's feedback do what you like with it :)
Hum, There is probably something wrong with the formula, especially while someone there tells about the smell: There's probably some H2S in the reaction, meaning the H2SO4 is not only a catalyst...
I guess C12H22O11 + H2SO4 -> 12C + 11H2O + H2S + 2O2 +water and additives that were with the H2SO4, as it never comes 100%pure (66% is maximum, it's saturated, H2SO4 is a gas, actually).
By the way, it would work with any strong acid, so it would probably be nicer with nitric acid.
My 6th grade teacher did this a few times. We called the carbon tower a "bogusoid". Once we measured its internal temperature, but I do not remember exactly how hot it was. But it was hot.
I vaguely remember Mr Clement's chemestry class, 'clemestry', as we called it, but it seems you left out some of the end products. What happened to the Sulfur and some of the Hydrogen and Oxygen? hydrogen sulfite? sulfur hydroxide?
I would really avoid touching something with acid on it even WITH gloves on, but I have touched it (with gloves) after I have neutralized it before I throw them out.
It is hard and crunchy with lots of tiny holes in it. Like sponge toffee. You could easily break it into pieces with your hands though.
Not without gloves on. There is still quite a lot of sulfuric acid on it. If you touch it WITH gloves on it is crunchy and filled with small holes. It is kind of like the inside of a Crunchie bar.
Well, he is right actually. I gave a simplified version of the reaction, but there is also a little bit of sulfur oxide released and the fumes are gross.
You are correct from the reaction I gave though! So really, it is my mistake, not yours. :)
