what’s up guys today I’m hanging out in Corpus Christi Texas with my two
Corpus Christi Texas with my two
Corpus Christi Texas with my two brothers I’m mark I’m Scott and beyond
brothers I’m mark I’m Scott and beyond
brothers I’m mark I’m Scott and beyond yonder is the Gulf of Mexico right off
yonder is the Gulf of Mexico right off
yonder is the Gulf of Mexico right off this side here today we’re going to try
this side here today we’re going to try
this side here today we’re going to try and experiment see if we can turn ocean
and experiment see if we can turn ocean
and experiment see if we can turn ocean water into chlorine gas let’s jump right
water into chlorine gas let’s jump right
water into chlorine gas let’s jump right in so we just went down the store and
in so we just went down the store and
in so we just went down the store and picked up a couple of containers we got
picked up a couple of containers we got
picked up a couple of containers we got one of these cereal containers and a
one of these cereal containers and a
one of these cereal containers and a couple bottles of smart water the water
couple bottles of smart water the water
couple bottles of smart water the water in here is great but we don’t really
in here is great but we don’t really
in here is great but we don’t really need it so we got to find a way to
need it so we got to find a way to
need it so we got to find a way to deplete these bottles because in reality
deplete these bottles because in reality
deplete these bottles because in reality I only bought these things for the
I only bought these things for the
I only bought these things for the bottles themselves yeah now we all know
bottles themselves yeah now we all know
bottles themselves yeah now we all know that ocean water is very very salty and
that ocean water is very very salty and
that ocean water is very very salty and so the theory here is if we pump
so the theory here is if we pump
so the theory here is if we pump electricity into salt water it’s going
electricity into salt water it’s going
electricity into salt water it’s going to divide the salt NaCl into two
to divide the salt NaCl into two
to divide the salt NaCl into two elements sodium and chlorine so here’s
elements sodium and chlorine so here’s
elements sodium and chlorine so here’s the basic idea for building a simple
the basic idea for building a simple
the basic idea for building a simple chlorine generator we’re going to use
chlorine generator we’re going to use
chlorine generator we’re going to use our jug here with a couple of water
our jug here with a couple of water
our jug here with a couple of water bottles we’re going to empty these out
bottles we’re going to empty these out
bottles we’re going to empty these out flip them upside down and drill a couple
flip them upside down and drill a couple
flip them upside down and drill a couple holes in the tops these rest in the
holes in the tops these rest in the
holes in the tops these rest in the container we’re gonna stick our carb
container we’re gonna stick our carb
container we’re gonna stick our carb electrodes up inside the bottle and run
electrodes up inside the bottle and run
electrodes up inside the bottle and run electricity into them and with a little
electricity into them and with a little
electricity into them and with a little bit of luck our ocean water we split
bit of luck our ocean water we split
bit of luck our ocean water we split into two gases hydrogen and chlorine
into two gases hydrogen and chlorine
into two gases hydrogen and chlorine let’s do this let’s rock science all
let’s do this let’s rock science all
let’s do this let’s rock science all right so our first step is to gather up
right so our first step is to gather up
right so our first step is to gather up as much salt water as we can so do the
as much salt water as we can so do the
as much salt water as we can so do the honors right fill this container up
honors right fill this container up
honors right fill this container up we’re going to take this back to the
we’re going to take this back to the
we’re going to take this back to the house and physically modify our
house and physically modify our
house and physically modify our container to accept our two water
container to accept our two water
container to accept our two water bottles and start pump collect Rissa tea
bottles and start pump collect Rissa tea
bottles and start pump collect Rissa tea libby give it a flip flip puppy don’t
libby give it a flip flip puppy don’t
libby give it a flip flip puppy don’t stop a rocket to the bang bang do that
stop a rocket to the bang bang do that
stop a rocket to the bang bang do that little bit already mother we’re gonna be
little bit already mother we’re gonna be
little bit already mother we’re gonna be yeah alright so update guys we have just
yeah alright so update guys we have just
yeah alright so update guys we have just about completed this system we took a
about completed this system we took a
about completed this system we took a utility knife and cut a couple of holes
utility knife and cut a couple of holes
utility knife and cut a couple of holes in the top of our container just big
in the top of our container just big
in the top of our container just big enough that our water bottles will push
enough that our water bottles will push
enough that our water bottles will push down inside we cracked open a six volt
down inside we cracked open a six volt
down inside we cracked open a six volt lantern battery and extracted these
lantern battery and extracted these
lantern battery and extracted these carbon rods and then we took those
carbon rods and then we took those
carbon rods and then we took those carbon rods we shoved them down the
carbon rods we shoved them down the
carbon rods we shoved them down the necks of these water bottles all it’s
necks of these water bottles all it’s
necks of these water bottles all it’s left to do now is take some insulated
left to do now is take some insulated
left to do now is take some insulated copper cable wrap it around these carbon
copper cable wrap it around these carbon
copper cable wrap it around these carbon electrodes and hook it up to a car
electrodes and hook it up to a car
electrodes and hook it up to a car battery
battery
battery check it out guys we’ve got our bottles
check it out guys we’ve got our bottles
check it out guys we’ve got our bottles prepped we’ve got our carbon electrodes
prepped we’ve got our carbon electrodes
prepped we’ve got our carbon electrodes in the necks with the electrical wire
in the necks with the electrical wire
in the necks with the electrical wire connected the black wire we’re going to
connected the black wire we’re going to
connected the black wire we’re going to connect to the negative and this will
connect to the negative and this will
connect to the negative and this will produce hydrogen gas and our
produce hydrogen gas and our
produce hydrogen gas and our positive is going to produce chlorine is
positive is going to produce chlorine is
positive is going to produce chlorine is it going to work science will tell us
it going to work science will tell us
it going to work science will tell us let’s go hook it up to a car battery all
let’s go hook it up to a car battery all
let’s go hook it up to a car battery all right this is the moment of truth guys
right this is the moment of truth guys
right this is the moment of truth guys this is where we connect up the car
this is where we connect up the car
this is where we connect up the car battery to the system and if we’ve done
battery to the system and if we’ve done
battery to the system and if we’ve done it properly that when I make this
it properly that when I make this
it properly that when I make this connection the container should start
connection the container should start
connection the container should start bubbling there you go we got a couple
bubbling there you go we got a couple
bubbling there you go we got a couple little bubbles
little bubbles
little bubbles nothing super exciting but I’m getting
nothing super exciting but I’m getting
nothing super exciting but I’m getting something in there that’s really weird
something in there that’s really weird
something in there that’s really weird though it’s like not bubbling inside the
though it’s like not bubbling inside the
though it’s like not bubbling inside the container it’s bubbling on the outside
container it’s bubbling on the outside
container it’s bubbling on the outside container yeah that’s not good
container yeah that’s not good
container yeah that’s not good quick update guys we found that these
quick update guys we found that these
quick update guys we found that these tips of the bottles were actually
tips of the bottles were actually
tips of the bottles were actually hindering the process because they
hindering the process because they
hindering the process because they weren’t letting enough water flow so we
weren’t letting enough water flow so we
weren’t letting enough water flow so we just ripped them out completely
just ripped them out completely
just ripped them out completely rewrapped the carbon electrodes and just
rewrapped the carbon electrodes and just
rewrapped the carbon electrodes and just shove them back in the bottles and it’s
shove them back in the bottles and it’s
shove them back in the bottles and it’s actually working better
actually working better
actually working better [Music]
[Music]
[Music] if you look really closely there you can
if you look really closely there you can
if you look really closely there you can see with the car running there actually
see with the car running there actually
see with the car running there actually is an increased production of hydrogen
is an increased production of hydrogen
is an increased production of hydrogen Wow alright we’re just going to let that
Wow alright we’re just going to let that
Wow alright we’re just going to let that sit for about half an hour and then come
sit for about half an hour and then come
sit for about half an hour and then come back to check on it
back to check on it
back to check on it so we moved our setup over here to a
so we moved our setup over here to a
so we moved our setup over here to a rental vehicle and look the solutions
rental vehicle and look the solutions
rental vehicle and look the solutions turn blue I’m thinking that might have
turn blue I’m thinking that might have
turn blue I’m thinking that might have something to do with our copper wires
something to do with our copper wires
something to do with our copper wires may be copper wasn’t a very good choice
may be copper wasn’t a very good choice
may be copper wasn’t a very good choice we check our levels here you can see we
we check our levels here you can see we
we check our levels here you can see we do have a little bit more gas in there
do have a little bit more gas in there
do have a little bit more gas in there that should be hydrogen it’s not very
that should be hydrogen it’s not very
that should be hydrogen it’s not very much so this is a very slow process
much so this is a very slow process
much so this is a very slow process disappointingly there’s really not much
disappointingly there’s really not much
disappointingly there’s really not much happening over here we do have a little
happening over here we do have a little
happening over here we do have a little bit of gas but not much all right so
bit of gas but not much all right so
bit of gas but not much all right so update guys we’re failing I haven’t
update guys we’re failing I haven’t
update guys we’re failing I haven’t tried this experiment before at home
tried this experiment before at home
tried this experiment before at home with just the carbon electrodes and a
with just the carbon electrodes and a
with just the carbon electrodes and a work just fine I think maybe the copper
work just fine I think maybe the copper
work just fine I think maybe the copper is messing up the solution very
is messing up the solution very
is messing up the solution very interesting have you seen the solution
interesting have you seen the solution
interesting have you seen the solution no it turned blue take a sniff of that
no it turned blue take a sniff of that
no it turned blue take a sniff of that tell me how it smells
tell me how it smells
tell me how it smells you can smell chlorine you can you can
you can smell chlorine you can you can
you can smell chlorine you can you can smell chlorine in the water yeah just in
smell chlorine in the water yeah just in
smell chlorine in the water yeah just in the interest of time I pulled this out
the interest of time I pulled this out
the interest of time I pulled this out this is how much gas we’ve been able to
this is how much gas we’ve been able to
this is how much gas we’ve been able to collect this should be hydrogen we can
collect this should be hydrogen we can
collect this should be hydrogen we can confirm that by lighting it off whoa yep
confirm that by lighting it off whoa yep
confirm that by lighting it off whoa yep so that’s what we got guys we got
so that’s what we got guys we got
so that’s what we got guys we got hydrogen gas and blue seawater yay whoo
hydrogen gas and blue seawater yay whoo
hydrogen gas and blue seawater yay whoo jano guys it’s the next day I’ve let
jano guys it’s the next day I’ve let
jano guys it’s the next day I’ve let this thing sit overnight and you can see
this thing sit overnight and you can see
this thing sit overnight and you can see the solution has cleared up and we’ve
the solution has cleared up and we’ve
the solution has cleared up and we’ve got a blue precipitate that settled down
got a blue precipitate that settled down
got a blue precipitate that settled down to the bottom now I talked to my friend
to the bottom now I talked to my friend
to the bottom now I talked to my friend nurdrage and asked him if he could
nurdrage and asked him if he could
nurdrage and asked him if he could explain a little bit about what might be
explain a little bit about what might be
explain a little bit about what might be going on here and this is what he said
going on here and this is what he said
going on here and this is what he said in the electrolysis of saltwater copper
in the electrolysis of saltwater copper
in the electrolysis of saltwater copper electrodes actually get attacked to form
electrodes actually get attacked to form
electrodes actually get attacked to form copper chloride and if we’re using
copper chloride and if we’re using
copper chloride and if we’re using copper electrodes and eventually the pH
copper electrodes and eventually the pH
copper electrodes and eventually the pH of the solution will get so high that
of the solution will get so high that
of the solution will get so high that it’ll start forming copper hydroxide
it’ll start forming copper hydroxide
it’ll start forming copper hydroxide which is the blue precipitate that we
which is the blue precipitate that we
which is the blue precipitate that we saw in our solution so it sounds like
saw in our solution so it sounds like
saw in our solution so it sounds like what I need to do now is go back to the
what I need to do now is go back to the
what I need to do now is go back to the drawing board rig up a very very simple
drawing board rig up a very very simple
drawing board rig up a very very simple system for using only the carbon
system for using only the carbon
system for using only the carbon electrodes for splitting salt water into
electrodes for splitting salt water into
electrodes for splitting salt water into hydrogen and chlorine gas it is going to
hydrogen and chlorine gas it is going to
hydrogen and chlorine gas it is going to work but that’s going to be experiment
work but that’s going to be experiment
work but that’s going to be experiment for another video
for another video
for another video according to nurdrage we’re not going to
according to nurdrage we’re not going to
according to nurdrage we’re not going to get much but we should get something and
get much but we should get something and
get much but we should get something and there’s a whole lot of salt water in the
there’s a whole lot of salt water in the
there’s a whole lot of salt water in the ocean so we’ve got plenty of resources
ocean so we’ve got plenty of resources
ocean so we’ve got plenty of resources to tap into so our failed experiment
to tap into so our failed experiment
to tap into so our failed experiment isn’t fruitless after all by running
isn’t fruitless after all by running
isn’t fruitless after all by running electricity through seawater we’ve
electricity through seawater we’ve
electricity through seawater we’ve actually generated four really cool
actually generated four really cool
actually generated four really cool components we’ve made hydrogen gas which
components we’ve made hydrogen gas which
components we’ve made hydrogen gas which is extremely flammable sodium hydroxide
is extremely flammable sodium hydroxide
is extremely flammable sodium hydroxide which can be use as a cleaning agent or
which can be use as a cleaning agent or
which can be use as a cleaning agent or for making soap we’ve made a solution of
for making soap we’ve made a solution of
for making soap we’ve made a solution of bleach which can be used for cleaning
bleach which can be used for cleaning
bleach which can be used for cleaning and purifying and some
and purifying and some
and purifying and some for hydroxide that has a lot of uses as
for hydroxide that has a lot of uses as
for hydroxide that has a lot of uses as well electronics dyeing clothes and
