kitchen chemistry

In this video I do some experiments that were taken from the kitchen.

Crushing a can.

This works because the steam produced from heating the can pushes out the air. When the can cools the steam truns back into a liquid. The quite impressive force of the air (that we are exposed to all the time!) 101,325 Pa, which easy crushes the can. The reason this huge force dues not cruch cans or kill people all the time is that the presser pushing out of the can was the same as the presser pushing in, that is until I chemistryd it.


Egg

Not realy science just nice to look at and eat


Borax polymer

PVA glue, poly vinyl acetate is a polymer (long chain of molecules). Its smooth and free flowing like a thick liquid. When you add the borax it connects together some of these polymer molecules and they get court up in each other. So it behaves more like a solid.

your cat wants to eat that shit!

[AlchemicalGarden]

@maa240 ey iz doin scince, mah

[98JMA]

How did you dry the polymer ball??

[AlchemicalGarden]

@98JMA Just kind of left it out for a bit.

4:10

do i see a cat? :D

[liquidgrain]

LOL, cat at 4:10!

[spacegeek725]

Ha ha the cat

[teamKawasaki0505]

the egg part is not interesting ....

[SilverCalculatorApp]

that's a cool experiment, thanks for showing!

[grfr]

Why did you tap the bottle at 3:28? Thats not spice...

[Crazyjoshman]

Borax is niiiiiiiice

[commercialmats]

that is pretty cool. Thanks for these things to do at home.
