All about Mercury, the Liquid Metal | Element Series
In this video, I'll be talking about the very interesting element Mercury. I try to cover as much as I can, including its properties, its history and interesting reactions. Let me know what other element you would like to see. Keep in mind that this takes a lot of work though, and that no

Mercury Moving in Dilute Nitric Acid
other metals randomly move about but mercury will do the same thing for a long time. I have some Ideas, but if any one knows why it does this I would love to know.

In this video, I will be extracting and refining mercury metal from mercury sulfide (cinnabar). This is a chemical method, which is safer than the typical heated one. It is a follow-up to this video: https://youtu.be/S4T57SFntIs This process was developed by Plante1999 from the Sciencem

How I Clean Up Spilled Mercury
Since I have been selling mercury products I thought I would make a video showing what to do in the event of a small spill.

I recover mercury metal from mercury nitrate solution by use of a single displacement reaction with copper. Here is the video where I produced the waste: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0h44IJSDJEs NileRed's videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4T57SFntIs & https://www.youtube.com/wat

When mercury is added to aluminum, it forms an amalgam (a mercury alloy). Aluminum is normally protected by a thick oxide layer, but the formation of the amalgam disrupts it. It allows fresh aluminum to react with air to form white aluminum oxide. As the oxide grows, it forms as these cool

In physics, string theory is a theoretical framework in which the point-like particles of particle physics are replaced by one-dimensional objects called strings. String theory describes how these strings propagate through space and interact with each other. On distance scales larger than

UPDATE: It was brought to my attention a much much better way to store it. The mercury should be put in the bottle without adding water. The bottle is then stored in a bag full of sulfur. Storing it under water will inevitably lead to it becoming all gross again Okay, I am finally posting

Crock Pot Full of Mercury In a Vacuum
a wave of inspiration hit me last night and I put a small 20W warming pot into a vacuum chamber and filled it up with mercury. Sure enough the mercury slowly evaporates out of the pot and collects on the side of the chamber where it drips down and collects on the bottom. its not as fast a
