For a purer product, it probably would be a good idea to re boil the calcium citrate in fresh distilled water after filtering, washing and drying in the frit, then filtering again after a short boil. This should really clean the calcium citrate for the reacidification step.

I've used citric acid before as a metal chelator in reactions which are sensitive to the presence of said ions, or in reactions where something might oxidise. I've used citric acid to chelate iron ions in solution when synthesising potassium salicylate (I was attempting to synthesise a soluble salicylate salt) as well as to slow the oxidation of salicylate in the presence of light.

ok but, how about extracting potassium from Bananas?

Citric Acid is used as part of the clean up process in Wine production, so as a chemical cleaning agent.

Basically it was just used to lower the ph and kill any microbes, then HPO to balance it back out

great video, and I use citric acid instead of lemon and salt especially if I dont have lemon. It is also sold in the some stores located with the spices.

Nile, love your videos. I used to study citric acid crystals. It appears to me that you actually grew a batch of citric acid monohydrate crystals. The hexagonal plate you saw in crystal 5 is indicative of anhydrous citric acid, as these crystals form hexagonal plates. Crystal 3 to me just appeared to be a twinned citric acid monohydrate crystal. Citric acid monohydrate crystals can actually grow fairly large when they are pure and left to sit if you were looking for something to do with them. I used to get them larger than a cm in diameter in a day or two. If you keep the crystals out for a day or two in a higher temperature environment, you would probably be able to see the crystals dehydrate and turn amorphous. Keep up the videos!

Citric acid is a good ear rinse after swiming. It prevents swimmers ear. It will also kill any coral you may get in your skin. Pick it out and rinse with citric acid. We just used lemon juice. Pretty weak I guess but very effective on fugus and water borne stuff.

Sounds like a grip problem to me. Is your dad regularly grumpy, distracted, unable to sleep? Maybe your mom's 'old fashioned' game is poor, buy her a shake weight, your newly happy, focussed, and well rested dad will thank you and your mom will get a higher yield from her lemons.

Combined with phosphoric acid is used to clean aluminium in aviation. Some kind of pasivated called "parkerizing"

Even though I don't understand the calculations, I still watch like a kid and agree!

Learned something new - citric acid produced by fungus. Automatic thumbs up !

I'm not from America and watching yours videos is so good because you use the normal metric sistem because science and that's great 🙏

Very nice video. Following you for the new and improved way for several Kitchen chemistries as well. Just one suggestion. For theoretical calculations and purity purposes, you could use the titration method on Citrus juice and pure crystals. The titration is not very difficult and if you need, I can help you with the same.

14:10 "Ive gone ahead and taken a shot of pure citric acid" Even out of context, I'd still believe you really said that

You can use citric acid to make Benedict's reagent (copper citrate complex)

Yeah. And show us the the colour change with formic acid, and other renowned aldehydes!

We did that in my organic chemistry lab. To purify it, we did a bunch of recrystallizations.

Citric acid is used to neutralise caustic soda (NaOH) in the wine industry cleaning practices (usually stainless steel tanks) Taking stains and tartrates away (hot water works best for tartrates

In the UK, Citric acid is used in bathroom sprays such as limescale removers for shower stalls. Even though it is around Ph 2-3, it will happily dissolve calcium/magnesium carbonate.

When life gives you lemons, extract the citric acid and make a video of it. Good video man

Citric acid, as I recall, is very good at absorbing ammonia; so I sometimes use it as a filter when I have ammonia vapors. It doesn't absorb all the ammonia vents, but it reduces them, making reactions safer to perform.

Citric acid is used in coffee making also used to break down Heroin in order to inject.

I use citric acid to clean some parts of an EDM machine. In particular there is a small wheel (it might be ceramic or porcelain) that comes in contact with a thin, fragile, metal wire which is being run through the machine constantly. We use this chemical called saven which dampens the conductivity of the water in order to better control the discharge. Over time the saven will build up on the wheel which if left alone will cause it to stop turning and the wire to break. We can't just scrub it off because that might rough the surface of the wheel and again cause the wire to break. So we place it in a beaker of citric acid and place that beaker in an ultrasonic cleaner (with a fixture of course).
