Bohrium (new) - Periodic Table of Videos

[masluxx]

why is that pipe painted the standard color for recycled waste water?

[breaneainn]

I just learned that salts are an event.

[KaiserJonOfMusic]

wait so if you can make elements with this machine, then is it possible to make stuff like gold atoms with it?

[MovieTech]

@KaiserJonOfMusic Yes, it is possible but to create any tangible amount of gold (or any other element for that matter) would take hundreds or thousands of years, IIRC.

[breaneainn]

@KaiserJonOfMusic Duh... why do you think these eggheads have such kickass hardware and sweet stylin' bitches?

[Trotskisty]

BOHR-RING...

[breaneainn]

@Trotskisty I'll give a wi-five for that super geek double entendre.

[DevilMaster]

Personally, I would've preferred if the element had been named copenium, from Copenhagen (the birthplace of Niels Bohr). So there would be no confusion with boron.

[Kirdan]

@DevilMaster There already is! Hafnium! Hafnia is the latin name for Copenhagen.

[DevilMaster]

@Kirdan So? Gallium and francium are both named after France (Gallia = France in Latin). And yttrium, ytterbium, terbium and erbium are all named after Ytterby.

[KoolKidKarl2k8]

Is 0:48 an animation or an actual view?

[johnsonrollings]

@KoolKidKarl2k8 I believe they are clusters of small spherical neodymium magnets being thrown at each other. There is another video on here somehwere where it is more clear.

[heyandy889]

Huh. And they deliver, once again.

[zinc1diecasting1]

That man has great hair.

[blueduderanch]

can you get a video of the professor explaining why it is important to make new elements when they only exist for fractions of a second and cannot be used or studied properly. there seems to be alot of money spent on something i cant find a use for. thanks.

[47f0]

So is the current thinking that there is no tranuranium "island of stability"?

[pshyc001]

F*** me, I want a pipe like Bohr's. xD

[peanutboy41]

Nice leather jacket

[98Eric98]

Man I underestimated the power of Bohrium. It sure made this video bohring!

Just kidding, your videos are amazing! Thank you!

[Alfalfa2210]

When Chemistry lecturers announce this news to their students, they will try not to Bohrium =)

[Ubazr]

0:49 Is that animation or what?

[moveaxebx]

@Ubazr

Yes, it's an animation.

[brrrul]

wow he even got a periodic table tie!!

[OwenMilloy]

Am I the only one who thought are the drapes the same as the carpet ?

[obidobi2]

Beerium

[faengish]

Came for the hair, stayed for the science history.

[carl2107]

I was hoping he would suddenly start rapping about bohrium halfway through, but found it interesting non the less

[BuBBaGump014]

I'll admit: I always thought he was wearing a wig.

[istinkinyoface]

his hands never stop moving, its hypnotizing

[BarneySaysHi]

At least it isn't a borium video.

[quebrantacujas]

Not 'Bohring' at all, I love these videos ;o)

[dumle29]

Im feeling proud as a Dane :D

[PolyphasicMe]

that dudes haircut....is.............BOSS

[GilvaSunner]

Darmstadt? That's Dutch for Bowel City.

[TriangleJeff]

Reddit sent me here ._.

[huswsimonbla]

Needs more wildly hand wielding.

[emperoreitan]

No one mentions Neils Bohr was Jewish

[theron1n]

@emperoreitan No one mentions he dugg fat chicks either. Guess it's just completely irrelevant.

[minecraftsmpmine]

@emperoreitan Because no1 cares about his race you racist.

[verynicelad]

What is Phil Spector doing in this video.

[roguethrax]

his... his hair... HIS HAIR

[k0tz45]

his hands... HIS HANDS WEOW EWEOWE OWEO WEOWE

[ManiacMaurer]

This man, his haircut. Amazing.

[pilleyuppo23]

This is like dumping a rock in the Pacific Ocean, claiming your new continent just the time before the rock goes under the waves. Pointless...

[lemut]

Once again a great and informative video. Please, please keep them coming.

[13thmarch1988]

Bohrium is not Boring! XD

[yoshidis4]

If you had pure Greek names for elements you would never be confused

[Surtak]

@yoshidis4

You'd just have the problem that half of the people couldn't pronounce them anymore...

[yoshidis4]

@Surtak You can join atoms together or something, and you cant pronounce a Greek name?

Just kidding haha :p

[1993gandy]

"bohruim is the first of the super heavy elements to be made in germany" how big is 1KG of it.

[yaelypower]

@1993gandy seriously, if you listened to the video you would know that they can only make maybe ONE ATOM at a time.

[1993gandy]

@yaelypower you can calculate how big 1KG would be if you know how heavy 1 atom is. you can even work out how big 124.6892KG would be.

[asicys]

Very nice video, but you should normalize the audio volume... On desktop pc' s there's no serious problem (you can crank it up as high as you like!) but on mobile devices on the other hand... :-)

[TheRedLuigi]

NOoooooooooooooooo. I study in Darmstadt. And i didn't know he was there D:

[AntiProtonBoy]

Any more info on that brewery pipeline story? Sounds hilarious. Uncle Google didn't tell me much.

[Tridecalogism]

I've never grasped the concept of ion's...

Also, could you bombard Element 102 with 103 and get 205?

[tommynights]

Thanks for the great vids. Perhaps you could add to them or produce a series on writing/balancing equations. I know I struggled with them back in my HS days and would like a better understanding of what is being described in the various videos.

[wendighoul]

@Krytensfriend1 While there may not be any immediate advantage to creating elements for very small windows of time, the lessons we learn from these expirements may, and most likley will, prove invaluable in some related field of physics which will have a revolutionary effect on our daily lives, who knows? P.S. Learning about the way the universe works is almost never a waste of energy, unlike making reference to invisible sky-chiefs, which almost always is.

[mccdotedu]

Wait a minute... The video starting at about 0:48 is that some sort of real time view of atoms joining?? I had no idea we could see such things take place. What is happening there?

[Darw1n1st]

When I win my nobel prize, I want a direct pipeline of hookers to my living room.

thanks.

[mogeroithe]

I bet if you cut his hands off, he wouldn't be able to speak.

[whackediw]

is Bohrium radioactive ?

[Squagnut]

If Bohrium is short-lived, are compounds made with it any more stable?

[virumoz]

@Squagnut -- I'm not a chemist, but I doubt that a chemical bond could affect such a huge nucleus. I suspect it would only affect the valence (?) electrons in the outermost shell (via EM force), and the nucleus would break down (via strong/weak force) independent of that.

[culwin]

4 people are Bohring

[melchior00625]

I just got an ad that said "No more frizzy hair". That's just wrong...

[endospores]

@melchior00625 i just got one for viagra. I don't think i care much for youtube advertising anymore.

[XXXPopeBenedictXVI]

@endospores If you use Google Crome or the new fire fox go to my channel. I favoured a vid yesterday with links to addblock - I'm now add free!!!

[endospores]

@XXXPopeBenedictXVI but advertising pays for the internet! We have to honour the efforts of those who want to make our junk twice as large and sell us knockoff pharmaceuticals.

[john37309]

Interesting short history of Bohrium. Good video!

John.

[CYFilmStudent]

Love your videos, thank you for giving us your time.

[spotlightman1234]

so what is element 107's name? hassium or bohrium?

[2334Johnlegend34]

@spotlightman1234 Hassium is number 108 and Bohrium is number 107.

[Probewitch]

This is probably silly, but I wonder if there is any meaning to the color used on the accelerator tube? Maybe like color codes used with wires?

[EnhanceTheTruth]

@Probewitch There is. Different colored tubes lead to different colored experiments/tests. It's a good way to stay organized! :P

[NathnaelShenkute]

great vid, missed Neil though

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

Excellent video.

[yared94]

The professor looks pretty badass when he's walking through the throng of scientists in the beginning in his leather jacket.

[archaedemos]

how do we scale down the the speeds and energies, and scale up the production?

[LinkStrikesBack]

@archaedemos

Scaling down the speed and energies of what? The elements being collided together in the accelerator? I'd think thats quite simple, weaker magnetic fields so that the particles don't accelerate to as high speeds. The resulting Bohrium? Use conservation of momentum, and have the particles collide and take into account the velocities and masses so that resulting velocity is low.

[SocCapAth]

German scientists naming an element after a Danish physicist? I can feel the love

[Etaukan]

The professor looks soooo much like he should be teaching at Hogwart's.

He would have been fantastic, cast in the movies.

Hmmm. Do they have chemistry classes there? No, so what would he teach?

Transfiguration Theory, I suppose would be the closest analogue.

[Zkoddi3]

@Etaukan I would've said potions.

[chavling]

I want a beer pipe too. :(

[BentMachine]

it saddens me to see the professor's hand shake :(

[ClayCompton]

On the subject of limits of the periodic table, have you throught about videos for Neutronium (atomic number 0) and Feynmanium (atomic number 137)?

(Feynman predicted no stable atom can exist with more electrons, which is why he got the hypothetical element "named" after him.)

[lthnnpwr]

Bohrium sounds boring!

[chopperboi89]

You may be able to do chemistry on the elements, but what practical uses are there for something like that?

[wacko031290]

@chopperboi89 They may find elements at high masses that are stable and they could be useful

[iasedu]

@chopperboi89 Why would you want practical uses for curiosity driven science?

[dazzaboy88]

love when there's a new one of these vids woooooooooo!! boogie bus wooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

[MrSuednym]

First chem lab of the semester is this afternoon. I'm excited.

[killernat]

wow that's probably the best gift a free house  that has free beer when ever you want

[lexichronicle2]

They should have called Niel, HEAVY, MAN.

[rackslap]

I think the Professor should flap his hands around more.

[timmerDanmark]

i say danium or danishisium would fit right

[dylanlawless1]

This video is Bohring..... ha i kid i kid

[ABitOfTheUniverse]

@dylanlawless1 Did you have to work on that sense of humor or were you Bohrn with it?

[michdudeada]

I think Bohriumate would've been appropriate!

[ThePeaceableKingdom]

...and did he do much science *after* he had free beer piped into his house? ;-)

[iSometimesWriteMusic]

I actually had no idea that the nucleus simply can add up to create a new element... haha, feels like it's too simple to seem intuitive. Science isn't supposed to be intuitive!

[SlideRulePirate]

Nice jacket Prof!

[tmafkap]

Is the half-life of an isotope always the same or does it change when it's part of a compound?

[nybotheveg]

@tmafkap as far as i know it's always the same. in a compound the electrons bind not the neuclues

[tmafkap]

@nybotheveg Thanks for the answer. I was wondering because a single proton has a short half-life, but with an electron it becomes stable. But I guess with more protons in the nucleus the forces in there outweigh the possible effects of some electrons.

[nybotheveg]

@tmafkap no alone protons are stable, it's neutrons that are unstable outside of atoms.

[tmafkap]

@nybotheveg Yes, you're right, my mistake. Fascinating topic...

[TheJamesDVid]

@tmafkap Always the same.

[puncheex]

@tmafkap: The half-life is characteristic of the isotope. There are some that are so exquisitely balanced that external conditions (such as heat or compounding) will influence their half-life, but by and large, most will decay on their own defined schedule no matter the external (to the nucleus) circumstances.

[tmafkap]

@puncheex Thank you very much for that reply, very interesting! Now you make me wonder what effects temperatures close to zero Kelvin have on the half-life (if any)... lol

[michdudeada]

@tmafkap It stays the same. Nuclear physics is pretty much totally unaffected by any chemistry.

[KhmerD0g]

this video is so boringum lol



[thetrendpimp]

I hope you never die :) :) :) you inspire me in soo many ways

[mrteemumilto]

0:04 No doctor handshakes?

What are you doing there, interrupting their work?

[radexpp]

Also, it makes many people think that the name of boron comes from a physicist, not a mineral.

[radexpp]

It's annoying in Polish, where boron is called "bor", bohrium is called "bohr" and they read the same.

[HWGuyEG]

I wonder how often the decay particles from Bohrium stick onto the atoms of the compound it was a part of... and does it stay together when it decays?

[ElMirc]

This came out just when I was wathing the other videos haha!

[invinciblemode]

This is pretty cool!

[orangetangopink]

I never knew you could do chemistry on elements that only exist for 1 second. That's awesome!

[peacepacifist2011]

@orangetangopink checkout how cern made and captured anti-matter, really interesting and a breakthrough.

[DadaMungo]

@orangetangopink I never knew you could do chemistry with hair like that

[PumpkinKinq]

Direct pipeline from the brewery? I want to wind a Nobel prize just for that.

[Heemoproductions]

@PumpkinKinq you need to learn how to speak english first.

[FuzzeeLumpkins9k]

@PumpkinKinq Gammer - winned

[conoracutt]

@PumpkinKinq you won't be winning any Nobel prizes with that spelling

[kristofarkas]

nice



[jeebersjumpincryst]

Yeehaa!!! New vid :D

[ArebearFTW]

I like turtles

[gehennamaggot666]

@ArebearFTW i like zombies.

[ginomw]

@gehennamaggot666 i like trains

[thijsloon]

@ginomw I like rubber duckies

[MrHaruharuharuhi]

Awesome!

[gartini]

@MrHaruharuharuhi Who doesn't?
