when people started leaving comments asking me to mix dry ice with liquid
asking me to mix dry ice with liquid
asking me to mix dry ice with liquid nitrogen at first I thought it was a
nitrogen at first I thought it was a
nitrogen at first I thought it was a joke but then as the comments continued
joke but then as the comments continued
joke but then as the comments continued and continued and continued I started to
and continued and continued I started to
and continued and continued I started to realize that this is a real thing so
realize that this is a real thing so
realize that this is a real thing so today we’re going to try mixing dry ice
today we’re going to try mixing dry ice
today we’re going to try mixing dry ice with liquid nitrogen just to satisfy
with liquid nitrogen just to satisfy
with liquid nitrogen just to satisfy your curiosity and see what happens you
your curiosity and see what happens you
your curiosity and see what happens you already know that dry ice is just a
already know that dry ice is just a
already know that dry ice is just a solid chunk of carbon dioxide that’s
solid chunk of carbon dioxide that’s
solid chunk of carbon dioxide that’s extremely cold at minus 109 degrees
extremely cold at minus 109 degrees
extremely cold at minus 109 degrees Fahrenheit on the other hand liquid
Fahrenheit on the other hand liquid
Fahrenheit on the other hand liquid nitrogen is just liquefied nitrogen gas
nitrogen is just liquefied nitrogen gas
nitrogen is just liquefied nitrogen gas this stuff is minus 321 degrees
this stuff is minus 321 degrees
this stuff is minus 321 degrees Fahrenheit this means the difference in
Fahrenheit this means the difference in
Fahrenheit this means the difference in temperature between dry ice and liquid
temperature between dry ice and liquid
temperature between dry ice and liquid nitrogen is the same difference in
nitrogen is the same difference in
nitrogen is the same difference in temperature between boiling hot water
temperature between boiling hot water
temperature between boiling hot water and a frozen chunk of ice for this
and a frozen chunk of ice for this
and a frozen chunk of ice for this experiment I’ve got the liquid nitrogen
experiment I’ve got the liquid nitrogen
experiment I’ve got the liquid nitrogen sitting in the thermos and that allows
sitting in the thermos and that allows
sitting in the thermos and that allows it to cool down to where it’s happy and
it to cool down to where it’s happy and
it to cool down to where it’s happy and very calm so if we drop in a piece of
very calm so if we drop in a piece of
very calm so if we drop in a piece of dry ice now what kind of reaction would
dry ice now what kind of reaction would
dry ice now what kind of reaction would you expect to take place the liquid
you expect to take place the liquid
you expect to take place the liquid nitrogen boils and the dry ice becomes
nitrogen boils and the dry ice becomes
nitrogen boils and the dry ice becomes even colder let’s just reach down in
even colder let’s just reach down in
even colder let’s just reach down in there and see if we can pull it out
there and see if we can pull it out
there and see if we can pull it out now the cool thing about this dry ice it
now the cool thing about this dry ice it
now the cool thing about this dry ice it has been cryogenically reduced to the
has been cryogenically reduced to the
has been cryogenically reduced to the temperature of liquid nitrogen so
temperature of liquid nitrogen so
temperature of liquid nitrogen so instead of being minus 190 degrees
instead of being minus 190 degrees
instead of being minus 190 degrees Fahrenheit this block of dry ice is now
Fahrenheit this block of dry ice is now
Fahrenheit this block of dry ice is now about minus 321 Fahrenheit
this is amazing it’s actually boiled out
this is amazing it’s actually boiled out most of the nitrogen
which of these do you think is more
which of these do you think is more dense dry ice or liquid nitrogen in
dense dry ice or liquid nitrogen in
dense dry ice or liquid nitrogen in other words if I drop dry ice into a
other words if I drop dry ice into a
other words if I drop dry ice into a glass of liquid nitrogen will it sink or
glass of liquid nitrogen will it sink or
glass of liquid nitrogen will it sink or will it float I don’t see it floating on
will it float I don’t see it floating on
will it float I don’t see it floating on the top there let’s add a few more
the top there let’s add a few more
the top there let’s add a few more chunks just to be sure yep
chunks just to be sure yep
chunks just to be sure yep I can hear that sinking right to the
I can hear that sinking right to the
I can hear that sinking right to the bottom it’s really cool how it mists for
bottom it’s really cool how it mists for
bottom it’s really cool how it mists for just a second and then the mist
just a second and then the mist
just a second and then the mist completely disappears and that’s because
completely disappears and that’s because
completely disappears and that’s because the liquid nitrogen is cooling the dry
the liquid nitrogen is cooling the dry
the liquid nitrogen is cooling the dry ice down to cryogenic temperatures so we
ice down to cryogenic temperatures so we
ice down to cryogenic temperatures so we can see the dry ice is more dense than
can see the dry ice is more dense than
can see the dry ice is more dense than liquid nitrogen because it sinks to the
liquid nitrogen because it sinks to the
liquid nitrogen because it sinks to the bottom therefore a cold drink Cheers
bottom therefore a cold drink Cheers
bottom therefore a cold drink Cheers just joking just joking
[Music]
[Music] for this experiment I have two identical
for this experiment I have two identical
for this experiment I have two identical bowls of water and two identical chunks
bowls of water and two identical chunks
bowls of water and two identical chunks of dry ice except the ones been soaked
of dry ice except the ones been soaked
of dry ice except the ones been soaked in liquid nitrogen the other one hasn’t
in liquid nitrogen the other one hasn’t
in liquid nitrogen the other one hasn’t if we drop them at the exact same time
if we drop them at the exact same time
if we drop them at the exact same time into two separate dishes how are they
into two separate dishes how are they
into two separate dishes how are they going to react
going to react
going to react [Music]
you can see that both two bowls are
you can see that both two bowls are reacting about the same they’re
reacting about the same they’re
reacting about the same they’re producing the same amount of vapor
producing the same amount of vapor
producing the same amount of vapor they’re bubbling at about the same rate
they’re bubbling at about the same rate
they’re bubbling at about the same rate they’re both popping off cool little
they’re both popping off cool little
they’re both popping off cool little smoke rings which is like my favorite
smoke rings which is like my favorite
smoke rings which is like my favorite part that doesn’t really surprise me so
part that doesn’t really surprise me so
part that doesn’t really surprise me so much the question is going to be which
much the question is going to be which
much the question is going to be which one lasts longer will the colder block
one lasts longer will the colder block
one lasts longer will the colder block of dry ice outlast the untreated piece
of dry ice outlast the untreated piece
of dry ice outlast the untreated piece now this has been running for about five
now this has been running for about five
now this has been running for about five minutes and you can see the bowl with
minutes and you can see the bowl with
minutes and you can see the bowl with the liquid nitrogen treated dry ice
the liquid nitrogen treated dry ice
the liquid nitrogen treated dry ice actually still has a thicker vapor there
actually still has a thicker vapor there
actually still has a thicker vapor there was enough cold in the first bowl to
was enough cold in the first bowl to
was enough cold in the first bowl to keep the reaction going a little bit
keep the reaction going a little bit
keep the reaction going a little bit longer we all know that when you drop
longer we all know that when you drop
longer we all know that when you drop dry ice into water it forms an amazing
dry ice into water it forms an amazing
dry ice into water it forms an amazing missing fog that just seems to flow out
missing fog that just seems to flow out
missing fog that just seems to flow out of the water so will it do the same
of the water so will it do the same
of the water so will it do the same thing with liquid nitrogen for this
thing with liquid nitrogen for this
thing with liquid nitrogen for this first experiment let’s drill two holes
first experiment let’s drill two holes
first experiment let’s drill two holes into the same block of dry ice we’ll put
into the same block of dry ice we’ll put
into the same block of dry ice we’ll put liquid nitrogen in one hole and water in
liquid nitrogen in one hole and water in
liquid nitrogen in one hole and water in the other and observe the results all
the other and observe the results all
the other and observe the results all right here we go liquid nitrogen it’s
right here we go liquid nitrogen it’s
right here we go liquid nitrogen it’s amazing to think about but the dryest is
amazing to think about but the dryest is
amazing to think about but the dryest is actually so hot right now that when we
actually so hot right now that when we
actually so hot right now that when we add the liquid nitrogen it boils it and
add the liquid nitrogen it boils it and
add the liquid nitrogen it boils it and vaporizes it just an instant and that’s
vaporizes it just an instant and that’s
vaporizes it just an instant and that’s why we’re getting the fog flowing off
why we’re getting the fog flowing off
why we’re getting the fog flowing off that we are all right we got that thing
that we are all right we got that thing
that we are all right we got that thing chock full of liquid nitrogen let’s add
chock full of liquid nitrogen let’s add
chock full of liquid nitrogen let’s add water to the other side and desert the
water to the other side and desert the
water to the other side and desert the difference oh that’s so cool our block
difference oh that’s so cool our block
difference oh that’s so cool our block of dry ice is blowing smoke rings now if
of dry ice is blowing smoke rings now if
of dry ice is blowing smoke rings now if you notice the liquid nitrogen is
you notice the liquid nitrogen is
you notice the liquid nitrogen is completely vaporized dry ice is so cold
completely vaporized dry ice is so cold
completely vaporized dry ice is so cold it’ll freeze water solid but at the same
it’ll freeze water solid but at the same
it’ll freeze water solid but at the same time it’s so hot it’ll boil off liquid
time it’s so hot it’ll boil off liquid
time it’s so hot it’ll boil off liquid nitrogen all water does is cool down to
nitrogen all water does is cool down to
nitrogen all water does is cool down to the point where it eventually
the point where it eventually
the point where it eventually crystallize and turn into ice that’s how
crystallize and turn into ice that’s how
crystallize and turn into ice that’s how you make carbonated ice cubes this is
you make carbonated ice cubes this is
you make carbonated ice cubes this is reaction I didn’t expect here’s a
reaction I didn’t expect here’s a
reaction I didn’t expect here’s a regular chunk of dry ice try punching
regular chunk of dry ice try punching
regular chunk of dry ice try punching that and you end up with sore knuckles
that and you end up with sore knuckles
that and you end up with sore knuckles soak the dry ice and liquid nitrogen and
soak the dry ice and liquid nitrogen and
soak the dry ice and liquid nitrogen and it pulverizes without problem I was not
it pulverizes without problem I was not
it pulverizes without problem I was not expecting that that’s cool I’m gonna do
expecting that that’s cool I’m gonna do
expecting that that’s cool I’m gonna do that again
that again
that again [Music]
okay let’s go throw the stuff in the
okay let’s go throw the stuff in the bathtub this dry ice has just been
bathtub this dry ice has just been
bathtub this dry ice has just been frozen in liquid nitrogen we’re going to
frozen in liquid nitrogen we’re going to
frozen in liquid nitrogen we’re going to throw it into the tub here and see what
throw it into the tub here and see what
throw it into the tub here and see what happens okay that was cool but it feels
happens okay that was cool but it feels
happens okay that was cool but it feels a little bit weak let’s dump the rest of
a little bit weak let’s dump the rest of
a little bit weak let’s dump the rest of it in there
it in there
it in there [Music]
this is cool our bathtub has just
this is cool our bathtub has just disappeared
disappeared
disappeared [Music]
[Music]
[Music] and like stings your face when you
and like stings your face when you
and like stings your face when you breathe it
so what happens when you dip dry ice and
so what happens when you dip dry ice and liquid nitrogen well you get a pretty
liquid nitrogen well you get a pretty
liquid nitrogen well you get a pretty cool reaction and very very cold dry ice
cool reaction and very very cold dry ice
cool reaction and very very cold dry ice so there you have it guys now you know
so there you have it guys now you know
so there you have it guys now you know what happens if you put dry ice in
what happens if you put dry ice in
what happens if you put dry ice in liquid nitrogen thanks for joining me
liquid nitrogen thanks for joining me
liquid nitrogen thanks for joining me for this experiment today I’ll be
for this experiment today I’ll be
for this experiment today I’ll be looking for in the next video
looking for in the next video
looking for in the next video talk to you then and then through the
talk to you then and then through the
talk to you then and then through the whole batch into a bathtub full of
whole batch into a bathtub full of
whole batch into a bathtub full of extremely warm water oh dude look at the
extremely warm water oh dude look at the
extremely warm water oh dude look at the way that shattered apparently liquid
way that shattered apparently liquid
way that shattered apparently liquid nitrogen frozen dry ice becomes a lot
nitrogen frozen dry ice becomes a lot
nitrogen frozen dry ice becomes a lot more brittle as well whoa
more brittle as well whoa
more brittle as well whoa oh my goodness okay that’s worthy to
