Now I am going to tell you more about igniting the air with plasma
4:17 Actually, you *can* discover what the mixture of gasses is. You just need to get a spectrophotometer and to look at the graph. Because each gas emits a different wavelength of light, you'll be able to tell what the mixture of gasses is to an extent. I'm fairly sure that Brainiac75 did an experiment similar to this
A simple collimator and prism will do for many gases. Their main emission lines usually are clear, intense and easily distinguished with the help of spectra available easily on the internet.
Holy crap braniac was that lady who held a piece of nuclear fuel ejected from the core during the explosion. I hope she’s doing good
4:14 you can find out the gas composition by measuring the characteristic light emission lines with a spectrograph!
Im gonna say that coming back to your channel after 2 years of not seeing your videos has had a jarring reaction, but at the same time it is the same level of great content and to see your face in them is also a welcome addition even if the words don't match. It gives the video more presence, makes it easier on my brain. Also you look like a huge nerd from like the 60s which is to say i bet you could beat any nerd in arm wrestling with ease now. thank you for your content bro!
Always love you classic style uploads, thanks thoizoi
Wow, I'm pleasantly surprised how many subs you have now! I haven't watched in quite some time. Also the quality has gone up to an amazing level. Bravo!
Max your awesome we need more people like you to drive science forward. Thank you for your hard work sir! Easy thumbs up!
Quality content, _as always!!!_ Keep up the good work.
Excellent experiment! Thank you very much for your work on this channel!
Just loving this channel!
I really enjoyed this video, thanks for making and uploading it. 👍
Thank you so much for this video!
Nice trip that took us quite beyond what the title advertised ! Loved it :)
0:20 "That's why, lets right in" 😆 I love your broken English man
The central ampoule in the sodium lamps can be removed, and if unbroken make nan excellent fine honer for knife blades. An older fellow electrician in the oilfield showed me this trick decades ago. Used it today in fact.
Great stuff, thank you!
Thank you for the upload! 😊Your demonstrations are always pretty cool!
Another fantastic video, it was all over the place, but in a good way!
Excellent video and now I'm even more curious.
Awesome video thanks for sharing
4:00 even some air purifiers that are sold and stamped as "safe" produce crazy amounts of ozone. Thats why they smell sweet. So the next time you see someone put their nose up to the air purifyer and says "oh smells so good", remind them.
Ozone does not smell sweet (not to me at least). Kinda smells a little like bleach
To me, ozone smells like nasty plant mulch.
ozone generators are quite common for deer hunting
Thanks your my favourite KZhead educator
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Always very well explained contain ❤ Thank's 👌🏼
Great video! Always excited for the cat footage in the end.
Best and most interesting KZhead channel by far👍🙂
You are the only channel I know of that undersells on your thumbnail.
Love the shirt!
I had the same question about that arc lamp! Now I found the answer for that question!
Very interesting video thanks!🙂👍
Really good episode.
Really good video👍 I think that plasma is a really interesting state of matter.
Awesome video 👍👍👍
It's great to hear your voice :)
Very nice experiments.
Very nice video, lots of effort on making such informative videos. Good luck
#Thoisoi2 I want to thank you for all your efforts of English translation. Your science videos are very very interesting.
Cool videos. Ty
Marvellous video
Those night lights are so beautiful...!!!
it is dazzling the shear amount of science and technology displayed on this single video... wao !
you always upload videos interesting to watch
Now this, this is what I call, The Quality Content.
If you haven't done so already: you should try the BLACK FIRE experiment with your low-pressure-sodium lamp. (you just need to make a "sodium" flame and when you look at it with only the sodium lamp, it looks like black fire.. very cool, but hard to get the best solution mixture).
Very interesting.
High voltage and plasma, my fav and was a big part of my childhood experimentations.
A very interesting video and a nice t-shirt, "Unforeseen consequences".
You can detect the gases with a spectrometer. They make nice USB ones for cheap.
I like the video because I'd also spent time at Black Mesa Research, and bought a t-shirt from the gift shop. Then one day this new guy showed up... :(
My plasma torch, for cutting stainless steel doesn't look like your lamp. But I use compressed air as the means of moving the heat
the accent is the reason why i enjoy this channel so much. eastern European accent I assume makes chemistry sound dangerous to a non chemist.
Hey. It's about time, Thoisoi! 🙂
Perfect shirt for this!
What do you call a king's farts? Noble Gas! 👑💨
love the black mesa shirt where can i get one
as a kid i was fasinated by those plasma arcs and even still to this day
Your gas sign has a bad ballast, thats why the bottom ones are dim.
No. issue is that Ar, Kr, Xe are all much heavier gases which don't get as excited as lighter gases which causes them to emit light. The ions on the lighter gases are traveling much faster since it requires much less force to accelerate them compared to heavier gases. He driving all of the tubes from the same power supply. Perhaps if he used two power supplies with the second driving the heavier gases at much higher voltages they could be brighter.
@@guytech7310 At higher current, not higher voltage.
I love your black Black Mesa t-shirt... I didn't know you were a fan of Half-Life!
Do you have a link for “hamstertime” channel? I don’t hear what you said clearly enough. Tnx
Norgeeeee! Hype .
Wow 🤩 you are creative God bless you for spreading science and benefit your brother from our fathers Adam peace be upon him thank you from the heart of Iraq ❤️
I love the electric ghosts in a bottle.
The interaction of electricity and gases are so beautiful. I want to put some plasma lamps on my desk but the high voltage mess with all the components arround. Well we cant have everything 😢
Put everything inside a Faraday cage
Can you make a video about making inert electrodes for electrolysis in reactions like chlorate cells?
The channel mysteriusbhoice has a whole bunch of electrochemistry videos including making your own PbO2 electrodes that work in perchlorate cells and other uses.
Finally a thumbnail with degrees Celsius. Not the fahrenburgers.. Only Americans use it for some reason, whichbis pne contry, while the rest of the world uses the international measurements. And still, you will see 95% of the internet referring the temperature to f
It will change as more of the world begins to view KZhead. Most content creators who have English based channel are creating towards their biggest portion of audience, Americans. But things are changing . I myself am growing quite comfortable with Celsius and kilometers.
@@texasslingleadsomtingwong8751 Dont forget all mighty kilogram. Aside that i agree
Nah, the beauty of Fahrenheit is that it annoys metric snobs to no end! :) The reason why the US still uses it because our industrial base was never destroyed during all those european wars. Europe was able to retool all its factories when they had to replace them. The US largely continue to use old factory equipment that was built prewar or during the war. Plus the US was very busy producing the goods Europe & Asia needed after the war to rebuild.No body wants to spend the billions to convert over to metric. However if Europe is willing to pay the costs to retool everything over to metric America will be glad to switch over. Deal? Using your logic, How come every European & Asian nation hasn't adopted English as the official language? it would make everything a lot easier right? Should the French, Spanish, Germans, Italians all abandon their native languages and just teach & speak English?
@@haros2868 I delta drugs as a youngster , grams is second nature , 😆
Hello from England... A European came up with °F and we used to use it too but obviously dropped it because it's stupid... Our American friends still use it because their argument is, as with all things "America is big, can't change things, would cause pandemonium" iirc it's kinda our fault they started using it in the first place, it's also why they call football... soccer, that's err... That's on us too.
Hello i have a question. How does Radon ionts glow in electric field ? I cant find any document or pictures which match. I found several sources that said its red others claimed purple or white and more. What coloure is visible part of radon emission in gas discharge if we ignor radioactive decay?
14:59 wow thats beautiful! Can you buy those somewhere?
Cool Half-Life shirt! 😎
6:00 Why only one electrode gets red hot, and not both? Is that polarity dependent?
Incredibly dumb question. 15:30 where are the wave-patterns coming from? The gas attempting to move away from the coils? I assume it has nothing to do with the double slit experiment.
I suspect its the mechanical vacuum pump that is creating the wave pattern as it cycles which causes the air pressure inside to vibrate. Normally in a sealed tube its just uniform.
Do you know if you pass high voltage at a very high-frequency throw pure hydrogen if there will be gamma rays production?
That’s why. Let’s right in! :D the English is getting good! However this made me laugh at the end of the intro. :)
this is gonna be a really weird question but if that thing can burn steel then why not use metal as a fuel? like in theory once you are in space you don't NEED a lot of the metal stuff on your craft like spent fuel containers, spent oxygen containers and stuff like that so why not use it as fuel in a thruster?
thank you, Im gonna go make a lightsaber now
14:55 where can i find these bulbs?
Nice shirt good sir....
I imagine you can make a plasma gun ionizing the air molicules then propegating the plasma theough the air at high velocity using vortex ring technology.
I love such lamps
20 years ago when I was a kid I bought a plasma lamp like that one. The 1st time I used it I got amazed then scared when I touched the glass and the sparks came to the tips of my fingers. Then I licked it and the sparks jumped to the tip of my tongue! I got so scared of getting cancer or so, so I put it away. I've also opened it apart and there was a green lamp that had no electrical wires on it but it gave light when the lamp was on, and back then I just couldn't understand it. Now I know what plasma is and how it works... And I still have that lamp somewhere...
Fantastic video, dam i love Science !
What happens if you feed some gas like methane or hydrogen rather than Air through a Plasma cutter torch? Will you get an even hotter flame of reducing nature, rather than oxidizing that could be used for welding rather than cutting metals?
A spectrometer would reveal the elements used in the plasma globe.
Making of nitric oxides was developed by Ignacy Mościcki for production of nitric acid from the air.
Plasma ball messed up my computer once. The charge spreads through the room and charges stuff. Try working with an optical mouse next to it. The pointer gets crazy. And it's just the begining. My GPU was fkd up. I was updating drivers, even had to update/repair bios. It was a mystery. Then I lost the ball and it slowly went back to normal. I just had to tune the fans for some reason. I wonder if it produces negative ions like those fancy $200 air ionizers. I think so, just with 1000x higher voltage
To find out the gas contents, could a spectroscopic measurement be taken? Put the plasma ball in a ray of, say, white light, shine it through the ball, then have some sort of receiving instrument measure the wavelengths of light coming out the other side. The way they determine chemical contents of astral bodies Different wavelengths mean different chemicals.
Metal sublimates at high temperature. Ionized decomposition into very fine charged metal particles, in an propane forge. It's interesting 🤔
Where can I buy that noble gases wall light?
He built it himself.
Kinda realized my car has two xenon plasma generators halfway through the video lol.
Beware of air purifiers with ionizers.
Woow!) Very interesting video! From Ukraine🇺🇦 with love!)
I see no link for the high volt generator.
Do you have the electrical schematic of the high voltage supply?
Neon sign transformers are dangerous, shock hazard
Wouldn't it be easiest to observe the plasma lamp with a spectrometer? The gaps should tell you what elements are in the ball
So is there a temperature/pressure at which the burning of air becomes self-sustaining?
Well, setting off a nuclear bomb doesn't destroy the world, so there's that.
Couldn’t you just use a Diffraction Grating to get an idea of the wavelengths and narrow down the possible gas combinations? As I understand it that’s how we tell star composition.
Petrichor is the smell after rain which is caused by geosmin.
Lightning does make nitrogen dioxide and ozone which is supposed to smell but I haven’t experienced that.
In one of your videos you showed the reduction of copper with hydrogen, here are some questions, what other metals can be reduced this way? does this reaction work with copper carbonate? Is it possible to use methane gas instead of hydrogen? Is it possible to use 'syngas' wood gas in this reaction instead of hydrogen? I believe that these questions of mine can make a cheaper video.
Hmm, spark from copper electrodes > nitric oxide > dissolve in water > add baking soda > saltpeter!
I've known for a long time how Ozone is made via lightning. I never put together that unique smell and trace ozone synthesis in a nasty thunder storm. Next time I'm in a thunderstorm with someone, this is going to bake their noodle.
I wonder what will happen if we can have plasma weapons today ???_
Sir, can I share this?
