Mad Hatter pt2

Mercury is a dangerous element so dont attempt to replicate this, as this experiment was done a long time ago before i was aware how dangorous it actually is.....Does make one wonder what going on, and how stuff breaks down and transfers energy--salts of life

hho is givin off of the terminals, hydrogen gas is flammable

mercury does not usually attracted to magnets unless you charge it.

Tesla made various mercury rotary spark gaps and i wonder how he came about the techniques

hey did that drop of mercury change color when charged in that cup of salt water?

[crob227]

@guitarmastero16 yes it changed colors, almost the way a earth battery does when using the energy from the copperor sink, like it decays,, sorry it took so long to reply, i didnt recieve this message.

@crob227

It looked like mercury oxide.

[crob227]

@MrFlyboy57 yes it does...

how do i kno wtht it isn't gallium?

[crob227]

@jzlACoSTE How do i kno its not gallium??????? Not to be a jerk but arent the charecteristic of gallium the same?

[bobdull420]

@crob227 Gallium will stick to surfaces whereas mercury does not. In the beginning of the video it shows that it is obviously not gallium.

also, i arrived at this video because i have an idea/invention based around Hg (im an engineer) message me if you want to hear it!

what happens when a lazer pointer hits mercury? will it be reflected partially or completely?

[kingdomheartsss]

dam..... thats pretty....making something that uses that lol

[stanzomanyy]

How do you charge up the mecury and get it to spin with out nothing going to it? What do you use to charge it up with?

[harrisgc1]

Mercury is diamagnetic.

[TeravoltOrg]

Also, as to why it was bubbling, I assume you used saltwater in your HHO cell. What happened was the salt decomposed and dissolved in the Hg; made sodium amalgam. When sodium amalgam is added to water, the sodium reacts and releases hydrogen bubbles.

[TeravoltOrg]

The mercury isn't ferromagnetic, nor paramagnetic. What is happening is the strong moving magnet is inducing an electric current in the drop of Hg, and that current is causing the Hg to become an electromagnet. Look up lenz effect.
