three-two-one oh dear hey guys I’m Nate welcome back to the backyard today we’ve
welcome back to the backyard today we’ve
welcome back to the backyard today we’ve got a fun experiment that we’re going to
got a fun experiment that we’re going to
got a fun experiment that we’re going to try thanks to the suggestion of youtube
try thanks to the suggestion of youtube
try thanks to the suggestion of youtube user robert VIP Ehrman Robert wanted to
user robert VIP Ehrman Robert wanted to
user robert VIP Ehrman Robert wanted to know what would happen if we mixed
know what would happen if we mixed
know what would happen if we mixed molten salt with you to the liquid
molten salt with you to the liquid
molten salt with you to the liquid nitrogen or dry ice well today is not
nitrogen or dry ice well today is not
nitrogen or dry ice well today is not the day for the liquid nitrogen test but
the day for the liquid nitrogen test but
the day for the liquid nitrogen test but it is the day to see what happens if we
it is the day to see what happens if we
it is the day to see what happens if we pour molten salt onto dry ice well we’ve
pour molten salt onto dry ice well we’ve
pour molten salt onto dry ice well we’ve got our foundry we’ve got our salt and
got our foundry we’ve got our salt and
got our foundry we’ve got our salt and we’ve got some dry ice
we’ve got some dry ice
we’ve got some dry ice let’s try mixing them together now as a
let’s try mixing them together now as a
let’s try mixing them together now as a first step what we want to try and do is
first step what we want to try and do is
first step what we want to try and do is clean out our crucible all of the
clean out our crucible all of the
clean out our crucible all of the crucibles we’ve got currently have a
crucibles we’ve got currently have a
crucibles we’ve got currently have a residue from other projects in them this
residue from other projects in them this
residue from other projects in them this one seems to have quite a bit of
one seems to have quite a bit of
one seems to have quite a bit of aluminum built up on the sides so we’re
aluminum built up on the sides so we’re
aluminum built up on the sides so we’re gonna try and chip out what we can then
gonna try and chip out what we can then
gonna try and chip out what we can then fire up the foundry and see if we can
fire up the foundry and see if we can
fire up the foundry and see if we can melt out the rest and shake it out so we
melt out the rest and shake it out so we
melt out the rest and shake it out so we have on mostly clean crucible to melt
have on mostly clean crucible to melt
have on mostly clean crucible to melt our salt in we do want a small reservoir
our salt in we do want a small reservoir
our salt in we do want a small reservoir in our dry ice to pour the salt into so
in our dry ice to pour the salt into so
in our dry ice to pour the salt into so it doesn’t just scatter all over the
it doesn’t just scatter all over the
it doesn’t just scatter all over the place so let’s take our drill bit and
place so let’s take our drill bit and
place so let’s take our drill bit and try and carve a hole down into the ice
try and carve a hole down into the ice
try and carve a hole down into the ice just a little bit
[Music]
[Music] Alex toasty
see how well molten salt pours out of a
see how well molten salt pours out of a crucible

crucible [Music]
huh well it’s cooled down it certainly
huh well it’s cooled down it certainly bubbled a good amount but it didn’t
bubbled a good amount but it didn’t
bubbled a good amount but it didn’t react horrendously violently at all at
react horrendously violently at all at
react horrendously violently at all at least not yet I guess it’s still
least not yet I guess it’s still
least not yet I guess it’s still possible to get there but even the salt
possible to get there but even the salt
possible to get there but even the salt that’s just on our pavers has cooled
that’s just on our pavers has cooled
that’s just on our pavers has cooled down to being solid just like our salt
down to being solid just like our salt
down to being solid just like our salt inside our dry ice has as well let’s see
inside our dry ice has as well let’s see
inside our dry ice has as well let’s see if we can tip that out there you go a
if we can tip that out there you go a
if we can tip that out there you go a nice solid chunk of salt right there
nice solid chunk of salt right there
nice solid chunk of salt right there I think the salt and our crucible is
I think the salt and our crucible is
I think the salt and our crucible is still liquid try pouring a little bit
still liquid try pouring a little bit
still liquid try pouring a little bit more in skimming some of this aluminum
more in skimming some of this aluminum
more in skimming some of this aluminum off the top just melting more aluminum
off the top just melting more aluminum
off the top just melting more aluminum goes
[Music]
[Music] oh I certainly wouldn’t want to get that
oh I certainly wouldn’t want to get that
oh I certainly wouldn’t want to get that on me but it’s nowhere near the violent
on me but it’s nowhere near the violent
on me but it’s nowhere near the violent kind of reaction that we’ve seen in
kind of reaction that we’ve seen in
kind of reaction that we’ve seen in other people’s channels where they pour
other people’s channels where they pour
other people’s channels where they pour salt into water that is still squishy it
salt into water that is still squishy it
salt into water that is still squishy it definitely hasn’t cooled down all the
definitely hasn’t cooled down all the
definitely hasn’t cooled down all the way
very hot also very hot still both very
very hot also very hot still both very hot
all right now I know this is probably
all right now I know this is probably filled with aluminum and some other
filled with aluminum and some other
filled with aluminum and some other trace metals but I’m gonna lick it
trace metals but I’m gonna lick it
trace metals but I’m gonna lick it [Music]
surprise of all surprises it’s salty
surprise of all surprises it’s salty alright now this is finally cold sounds
alright now this is finally cold sounds
alright now this is finally cold sounds a little less cold but it’s also a
a little less cold but it’s also a
a little less cold but it’s also a little bit thicker and it was poured
little bit thicker and it was poured
little bit thicker and it was poured second so that makes sense now I’m gonna
second so that makes sense now I’m gonna
second so that makes sense now I’m gonna try and break a piece off of this dry
try and break a piece off of this dry
try and break a piece off of this dry ice we’re gonna see what happens if we
ice we’re gonna see what happens if we
ice we’re gonna see what happens if we drop this dry ice into some molten salt
drop this dry ice into some molten salt
drop this dry ice into some molten salt I know three two one
I know three two one
I know three two one bubbling bubbling bubbling kind of not
bubbling bubbling bubbling kind of not
bubbling bubbling bubbling kind of not even a lot just a little bit of bubbling
even a lot just a little bit of bubbling
even a lot just a little bit of bubbling [Music]
the dry ice is disappearing a little bit
the dry ice is disappearing a little bit faster than if you just left it out not
faster than if you just left it out not
faster than if you just left it out not a lot o one of our pucks broke in half
a lot o one of our pucks broke in half
a lot o one of our pucks broke in half it’s kind of cool it’s got a like a very
it’s kind of cool it’s got a like a very
it’s kind of cool it’s got a like a very smooth outside but you can see that the
smooth outside but you can see that the
smooth outside but you can see that the crystalline structure has begun to form
crystalline structure has begun to form
crystalline structure has begun to form on the inside as a cool ball let’s hit
on the inside as a cool ball let’s hit
on the inside as a cool ball let’s hit this with a hammer exploded
this with a hammer exploded
this with a hammer exploded now it’s rock salt we’ve got two more
now it’s rock salt we’ve got two more
now it’s rock salt we’ve got two more experiments that we want to try and
experiments that we want to try and
experiments that we want to try and we’ve moved to the dome just in case
we’ve moved to the dome just in case
we’ve moved to the dome just in case things get out of hand which I don’t
things get out of hand which I don’t
things get out of hand which I don’t think will be a problem but better safe
think will be a problem but better safe
think will be a problem but better safe than sorry
than sorry
than sorry so let’s melt up some more salt and then
so let’s melt up some more salt and then
so let’s melt up some more salt and then try our next experiment
try our next experiment
try our next experiment [Music]
[Music]
[Music] because I’m not really sure how this is
because I’m not really sure how this is
because I’m not really sure how this is going to react when it’s going down into
going to react when it’s going down into
going to react when it’s going down into the crucible I have a plan for how to
the crucible I have a plan for how to
the crucible I have a plan for how to dip it in there and keep myself a little
dip it in there and keep myself a little
dip it in there and keep myself a little ways away I’ll take the dry ice and
ways away I’ll take the dry ice and
ways away I’ll take the dry ice and secure it in a pair of tongs and then
secure it in a pair of tongs and then
secure it in a pair of tongs and then I’m gonna use this extended grabber
I’m gonna use this extended grabber
I’m gonna use this extended grabber thing to hold the tongs away from myself
thing to hold the tongs away from myself
thing to hold the tongs away from myself and I’ll dip that down into the crucible
and I’ll dip that down into the crucible
and I’ll dip that down into the crucible I don’t really think it’s going to
I don’t really think it’s going to
I don’t really think it’s going to explode because neither the dry ice nor
explode because neither the dry ice nor
explode because neither the dry ice nor the salt will vaporize rapidly the same
the salt will vaporize rapidly the same
the salt will vaporize rapidly the same way normal ice would but it is possible
way normal ice would but it is possible
way normal ice would but it is possible that some salt will cool down around the
that some salt will cool down around the
that some salt will cool down around the dry ice for Michelle and then the
dry ice for Michelle and then the
dry ice for Michelle and then the expanding dry ice will cause that to
expanding dry ice will cause that to
expanding dry ice will cause that to break open so I do want to stay a little
break open so I do want to stay a little
break open so I do want to stay a little bit away and that’s why I’m not just
bit away and that’s why I’m not just
bit away and that’s why I’m not just gonna be dipping this directly down into
gonna be dipping this directly down into
gonna be dipping this directly down into the salt
well it’s certainly bubbling well quite
well it’s certainly bubbling well quite a bit more of a reaction that I thought
a bit more of a reaction that I thought
a bit more of a reaction that I thought we would get actually it’s spilling all
we would get actually it’s spilling all
we would get actually it’s spilling all over our container
[Music]
[Music] now just floating on the top of the salt
[Music]
[Music] my tongs have become salted together it
my tongs have become salted together it
my tongs have become salted together it was just so much salt that built up on
was just so much salt that built up on
was just so much salt that built up on the tips it was in contact with the dry
the tips it was in contact with the dry
the tips it was in contact with the dry ice so I think it just made it cool down
ice so I think it just made it cool down
ice so I think it just made it cool down it’s like a salt weld that was pretty
it’s like a salt weld that was pretty
it’s like a salt weld that was pretty fun we got a lot more bubbling action
fun we got a lot more bubbling action
fun we got a lot more bubbling action than I really thought the last thing we
than I really thought the last thing we
than I really thought the last thing we want to try is to take our salt and then
want to try is to take our salt and then
want to try is to take our salt and then pour it on to a container full of broken
pour it on to a container full of broken
pour it on to a container full of broken up dry ice so it’s not just pouring it
up dry ice so it’s not just pouring it
up dry ice so it’s not just pouring it onto one flat piece of dry ice that has
onto one flat piece of dry ice that has
onto one flat piece of dry ice that has a whole board into it in this case
a whole board into it in this case
a whole board into it in this case there’s just going to be lots of pieces
there’s just going to be lots of pieces
there’s just going to be lots of pieces and it’s just going to flow all over all
and it’s just going to flow all over all
and it’s just going to flow all over all of it
of it
of it [Music]
all right
all right [Music]
all right here we go I’ll take the
all right here we go I’ll take the crucible I’m just gonna pour it all over
crucible I’m just gonna pour it all over
crucible I’m just gonna pour it all over that dry ice this could be exciting
that dry ice this could be exciting
that dry ice this could be exciting ready three two one hmm I think I
ready three two one hmm I think I
ready three two one hmm I think I expected a little bit more of a reaction
expected a little bit more of a reaction
expected a little bit more of a reaction when that poured on the salt poured all
when that poured on the salt poured all
when that poured on the salt poured all over chunks of dry ice didn’t react a
over chunks of dry ice didn’t react a
over chunks of dry ice didn’t react a whole lot we got much more of a reaction
whole lot we got much more of a reaction
whole lot we got much more of a reaction when we put it into the solid piece of
when we put it into the solid piece of
when we put it into the solid piece of dry ice I found a whole board down into
dry ice I found a whole board down into
dry ice I found a whole board down into it we got a lot of bubbling and popping
it we got a lot of bubbling and popping
it we got a lot of bubbling and popping and it did stay in that chunk and rice
and it did stay in that chunk and rice
and it did stay in that chunk and rice ended up casting that puck that was
ended up casting that puck that was
ended up casting that puck that was pretty neat
pretty neat
pretty neat molten salt versus dry ice the molten
molten salt versus dry ice the molten
molten salt versus dry ice the molten salt didn’t react terribly violently but
salt didn’t react terribly violently but
salt didn’t react terribly violently but it did bubble and splashed quite a bit
it did bubble and splashed quite a bit
it did bubble and splashed quite a bit and it’s just interesting to see salt as
and it’s just interesting to see salt as
and it’s just interesting to see salt as a liquid it pours very smoothly it’s a
a liquid it pours very smoothly it’s a
a liquid it pours very smoothly it’s a pretty runny thin liquid – like it
pretty runny thin liquid – like it
pretty runny thin liquid – like it doesn’t turn into a consistency like
doesn’t turn into a consistency like
doesn’t turn into a consistency like syrup or anything like that
syrup or anything like that
syrup or anything like that it’s almost as thin as water it seems
