No problem, Mike! I will keep you posted on how the sulfate works compared to the nitrate!

Copper sulphate can be created from one of your most abundant waste products; Copper nitrate. Adding sulphuric acid to copper nitrate solutions then letting it cool in an ice bath or cooler will result in the precipitation of transparent copper sulphate crystals. The more conc. the copper nitrate the better, by evaporating the excess water via hot plate in a crystallizing dish, the more dilute, more sulphuric is required. The cleanest and easiest way to acquire copper sulphate however is from Lowes or Home Depot, you can get 2 lbs of pure blue for $15 in the product of Zep brand Root Kill.

Isn't it Iron that turns into copper in a solution? It might be better to use plastic basin if you didn't want the sides to turn to copper. To me having the wire turn copper instead of the bowl as well, would be better!

Yup if you use iron it trades places with the copper (anything higher than iron on the reactivity scale) this is a none magnetic stainless steel bowl which is very resistant to the chemicals in use. I was using the bowl as a cathode to collect like I would with a silver cell.

Thanks for posting copper again! :D Was the bar you want to give away made from the copper from the cell or did you just melt up something like wire for that? Did you end up adding in the nitric off camera? At 20:08 the volume is suddenly higher and that would've been the moment to add it as well. It just confused me for a minute.. Pouring lots of acids into water can be dangerous. Concentrated sulphuric acid mixing with water is an exothermic reaction and caused the extreme temperature increase you later discovered. It (mostly) wasn't caused by the reaction of copper dissolving. I know that there's lots of advice about perfect concentrations and temperatures etc. for silver cells floating around the internet. I'd imagine concentration matters for your copper cell too. You mentioned how much copper that solution should dissolve, but you don't know whether it actually did. Also with diluting the solution to fit the bowl you don't know the concentration. I hope it works out this way, but it probably couldn't hurt to be a little more scientific next time.

They were test bars from the new furnace. I do have a .999 copper from the cell that I just made. I might re-pour it however it's a little un even.

Good morning Cody, How many grams of copper did you dissolve to make your copper electrolyte? I believe you're going to want somewhere between 500g & 600g of copper in solution to maximize crystal growth based on the liter size of your cell. Fun stuff bud.
@SilverStoll
Жыл бұрын
It should be at 350g. I need more beakers for storing the electrolyte when making it. Using the 3000 was awesome. Maybe I should have made another batch to pour right into the bowl? Growing pains my man!

Now just a few comments about videos in general: The sound for this video was good IMO until you turned on the fume hood fan. That causes a lot of background noise. I noticed your "description" field is always empty on your videos. Putting something there should help make the algorithm promote your videos. You could add a short description of the video, but even a list of keywords should help. I'm no influencer specialist but I'd imagine if you copy-pasted such a list underneath your videos it should help a bit. Words like "silver" "silver refining" "metals" "laboratory" etc.
