Excellent little known Chemistry Videos

I reposted this because I couldn't edit my last post. This list may be added to the Wiki. Stay tuned.


I had an idea to gather and sort as many high quality and even obscure chemistry YouTube videos as I could, so I shall be attempting it here. I believe that this could shed some light on the lesser known compounds/reactions as well; I myself find a few great videos here and there while searching obscure reactions, yet they are often ones neglected by most amateur chemists.


General Chemistry:

[Acid Anhydrides] [Mn2O7]

Separation of Ethanol and Water with Salt

Drying Alcohol Using Magnesium and Molecular Sieves

Purifying and Concentrating OTC Nitric Acid

Inorganic Chemistry:

Ammonia:

Preparation & Properties of Ammonia

Homemade Heavy Water (playlist)

Nickel:

Hexaaminenickel(II) Chloride


Nitrogen:

Potassium:

How to make Potassium Persulfate

How to separate potassium chloride from sodium chloride [This one is of lower quality, still helpful]

Sodium:

Making Lye From Salt (a rather unique way of doing so, using Hg)

Sulfur:

Sulfuric acid from sulfur using hydrogen peroxide

Organic Chemistry:


Acetylsalicylic acid:

Acetone:

Make Acetone Peroxide Do ***NOT*** attempt this unless you and your lab are suited with proper protection and experience. This is illegal in the United States.

Benzhydrol:

Recrystallisation of benzhydrol


Of course content creators can request for me to take down/put up their videos as they please. The list shall be further updated(as of right now, I am no where near done with it; I'm taking a break). If you have any suggestions(preferably videos that involve obscure reactions, synthesises, compounds, ect.) please post them and I'll add them to the list. A Radiochemistry section will be added soon.
