recommend no music, rather narrate.
When using open flame to not risk exploding glass wear best to keep it suspended with no direct contact to metal, or use a metal plate to rest it on
and evenly distribute the heat.
When manipulating H2SO4 it is best to have any control boards well away from it! The cap how ever make handy flask stands! (when at room temp or
cold!)
PVC Gloves are inert to nitric acid (Tested with all concentrations!) (That poor poor control board!)
Crush, sieve repeat till you have an even consistency powder, makes for smoother easier to execute reaction.
but looks like things worked for ya.

I liked it. Music + text description is ok IMO.
You can afford to get your camera lower and closer. A directly horizontal view makes for a more interesting video than the angles people normally
view from when standing. And it fills the screen better.
A tripod is helpful if you can get one. A slow pan or zoom is more effective than jerky panning back and forth. You can always use editing if you
need to see two different parts of your apperatus.

Never under estimate the power of acid fumes, most have delayed effect on things! may want to rinse it in distilled water if you notice any corrosion
starting!
A clear work bench goes a long way, especially if things go wrong, allows for fast response to say a spill.
