Chemical Etching
If you want to etch metals like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2K6XnCRbtA&feature=playe...
Which chemical agent would you use?
I'm really suprised about FeCl3's etching potential. 
Maybe someone may explain how and why it react with metals (metallic iron included)

Stepping japanese...
How old are you to hold or be dealing with or going through corrosion?
Its advanced issue on manufacturing trademarks, swords or not.

I'm senior chem. student. So who the f. are you? Mr. child protector?
What is the meaning of "stepping japanese" ?

I'm 16 years old without any chemistry study and can tell you what is happening:
The iron III chloride oxidize the iron to iron II chloride an is reduced to iron II chloride:
2FeCl3 + Fe -) 3FeCl2
If you add HCl and lets in air all will turn back to FeCl3
4FeCl2 + O2 + 4HCl -) 2H2O + 4FeCl3
You better study more for your chem classes.
FeCl3 take 1 electron to be reduced to Iron II and every metal under it's electrode potential will be oxidized to a chloride.
I never asked for this.

Plante1999 Thanks for the lessons and it's really impressive for 16 y. old person.
But i know these reactions ( i've made ferrofluid and you have to know these reactions to make ferrofluid. http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=23098 )
Knowing the reactions and explaining the reactions "how it would be" is different.
if you study chem or another sciences; you will understand what i mean.
FeCl3 is far more stable than FeCl2. even in our university: a dr.chemist wanted to have pure fe^++ ions without any Fe^+++ ions he couldn't do that.
Because metals generally wants to stay on bigger "oxidation basement"
And after this information this reaction is being interesting isn't it?
// I'm sorry to my bad english. it's really hard to explain in english for me.

Fe^3+ + e --> Fe^2+ = +0.77 V and positive potential means reaction is themodynamically "voluntary" reaction. And it generally means the
reactant more stable than reactives. (gibbs equation)
But Fe^3+ is more stable... ?
And after that question maybe you can explain why lithium is less reactive than potassium although more oxidating potential than potassium mr. little

Should we forbid the guidelines for safety?
Stepping japanese was a "jibber jabber" for doing thinks carefully picturing an somewhat secret process of achieving masterpieces.
What does f. stands for? Who the f. are you kid?
Mr. Sir, the graduate, perhaps this little question reveals more about how your prodigal success in achieving a degree of bachelorate in chemistry
deprives you from the reasoning required to understand why FeCl3 corrodes metals.
Have you thought the guess that a link about manufacture of swords would be nothing but the interest of a high degree cientifical inquirings of a not
to be molested at all senior?
Btw, I was curious what you mean't by not being the possibility of existence for pure samples of Fe2+? Is there a formula for that?
Perhaps you could explain because I'm no senior either.
Sorry this is the internet you could be anything from a 8 year old to a senior, I apologizes for that.

Poppy i'm sorry for my rude post. I had really bad day and i don't like persons "mr. don't do that" everything will be dangerous. But you are right

pure Fe2+ means that you have no Fe3+ ions on solution. All iron cations are Fe2+ ok? (anion doesn't important)

I don't get it.
------------------
And.. my "stupid" question;
Yes maybe it's basic chemistry. but everyone makes simple mistakes sometimes.
And maybe stupid questions will be great inventions Poppy. an example: You should check Daniel Shechtman's life and research career.
I'm sorry again for rude post.

Thats fascinating my brother uses FeCl3 to corrode printed circuit boards I now will strongly recommend him not to discard that down the toilet again!
Wow people seeming angry somewhat here
Back the days of highschool there too was a prof. who told me gunpowder was unfeasible to make work if produced in a way not resorting to potassium
such that the minimal sodium contaminants would ruin it. Well, it was a major slapback as I proved he was wrong but kapt that to myself not going
upset or anything but there was also that girl Gina who would love telling people not to do stuff because they were not grown enough for it she was an
assistent and treated us like retards (although most of us were indeed) still aside that she would invoke on you not death measuring a graduated
cilinder to the damn precise 25mL she had prescribed and would kick your grades to hell even thought the cilinder had only +/- 2mL accuracy.
I think laser levels keep the electrostatic bands a little less volatile for stronger setup complexes which gives rise to situations where it can suck
up and electron or diffuse through some other as-strong shells creating the so called covalent bond, but that depends a lot on the surrounding media
as for what a think an x-ray batch would distrust that faith in ionic stability. In fact, lasing can give rise to purely statistical rising of one
eletron's probability distribuition it would transfer and ultimately get trapped in other media other than the host ion itself. Thankfully that picky
didn't harass the students to the edge as she went on the fertile side of chemistry and abandoned us from invoking such paranoid.
It was pretty fun to finally surpass all that suffering and stick here in the forums as long as my brother is doing all the hard work for the moment,
thankfully Gine discourage me uinto raping myself into not predicting the unpredictable and following the intercourses as by usual. Not that this is
going somewhat off-topic but again that etching was astonishingly amazing if all I knew how I'd get that I would etch the s. out of car chassis and
stuff!
Haha, that would be pretty

/\ Wth dude?
Oh well man its okay, just watch this and if you don't laugh I think you can understand my feelings.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GJOVPjhXMY
Me too would engrave a lot of things with that! lol
As for the question about lithium and potassium, first: I don't know never dealt with lithium before although I got plenty of watch batteries and I
plan on extracting lithium frmo them
& second: watch this video about alkalis in water, caesium being by far the strongest of the guys. Maybe that explains?
Honestly, dude why are you impregnating me with all that nostalgia?

uzaymaymunu:
I've come across this idea recently. We've been dissolving scrap computer parts for gold and there was this enamel thing on the boards, very hard and
unsoluble to conventional paint removers, but breakable under the action of strong acid, so that it turns into a thick gel, which climbs to the
glassware walls. I conclusion, a similar enamel with the inscriptions would allow an acid to atack the metal and further on stick to the metal again
preventing the acid from leaking everywhere!

If you want to etch metals like it's done in the vid, it can be done with almost any electrolyte. The felt pad is soaked in electrolyte, and a current
is passed through it to (or from?) the work piece through a stencil.

I don't know who is Geber, but anyway here is it: Lithium is more reducing than sodium, potassium or ceasium, and give more energy when reacted with
water for instence then ceasium, First because its atomic mass is much less then ceasium. And the energy liberated is similar but one mole of ceasium
weigh much more. Secondly lithium take more starting energy fore the reaction then ceasium, but release much more after the reaction.
Hope it helped to clear something out.

So, iron ions is the topic of the morning, is it?
You are incorrect in the statement that it is impossible to achieve a solution of ferrous ions without measurable ferric contamination. It is,
however, difficult, requiring a mildly acidic, deoxygenated environment saturated with a non-complexing reducing agent such as hydrogen. This is
because the oxygen in the air has the nasty habit of oxidizing ferrous to ferric. Note that the half-reaction for a redox reaction isn't particularly
meaningful unless you know what the other half of the reaction is.
PS: Geber is the Westernized name of an 8th-century Arabian alchemist.

Enough. Study chemistry. Maybe some physics like "electrical potential".

I did not say imposible, yes it's possible but difficult.
And for another; yes you are right.
everyone in this forum should know Geber. is not it?

My answer was referring to thermochemistry and gibs free energy, you fool. "Secondly lithium take more starting energy fore the reaction then ceasium,
but release much more after the reaction" this is reference to thermochemistry, I could even give you data if you want.
And by the way, it is extremely easy to make iron II, look in brauer for instance.
I never asked for this.

This is not answer kid it's a result. And what is your source yes give it?
read some about "determinism in science" because this is not why it do that.
"And by the way, it is extremely easy to make iron II, look in brauer for instance."
I said "getting pure Fe2+ ions" not make Fe2+ ions kid.

I was trying to be polite with you, but naming me kid... You are not really in a good position to talk to me like that, you know? I don't think I need
to prove myself, it is already done. For you however...
Look in Brauer, you will see that it is easy to make "pure" Fe II. salts. Pure product do not exist, but you probably already know that.
Senior, you should be able to find thermodynamic chart by yourself, and figure out how to use it.

It's about time someone issued a warning.
@uzaymaymunu
Ad hominem is forbidden on this forum. It is arrogant and rude to refer to long-time forum members as kids when you yourself display all the
associated characteristics. Double posting is not allowed, if you want to add information to your posts scroll over to the blue edit button on the
bottom or top right corner, and do the extra effort to click on it.
Quoting entire posts makes the thread unnecessarily long and irritating to read.
This is a world wide forum, there is no discrimination against non-native English speakers like yourself. In fact, plante1999 doesn't speak English as
his first language, and neither did I when I began. But treat others with respect, and they will return the favour and be more understanding of the
language barrier.
One more faux pas and this thread gets reported. It will end up in "beginnings" if you're lucky.

From the viewpoint of thermodynamics, the Li reaction with water should release more heat than that of Cs, and I do believe that Plante has it
backwards; Li releases more energy upon reacting with water, and less upon solvation.
2Li + 2H2O --> 2LiOH + H2
2LiOH -(H2O)-> 2Li+ + 2OH-
The reactions for cesium are analogous. Attached are the calculations to support. The math is done assuming STP and reaction conditions such that 2 moles of alkali metal are reacted with
a large excess of water.
Knowing now that Li releases more energy upon reacting with water than Cs, it should come to no surprise that when equal masses of both are added to
water, the Li will release more energy, because there are more moles of Li than there are of Cs.
PS: To both of you, restrain yourselves. Engaging in such tomfoolery as personal attacks only serves to besmirch your good names. Attack the ideas
espoused, attack the implications thereof, but never attack the person. You may be sure that I speak in good faith, as I do not wish this thread to

Oh, I used:
E = energy
Li -) Li+ + E
Ce -) Ce+ + E
I removed part that where similar. I was sure that lithium give less energy when reacting, but way more after the reaction... I may have made a
mistake...

I think I was civil, at least I tried to, until he used "kid".
Fe II is easily got "pure". Please read Brauer in the iron part, I'm sure it will help you .
