Burn the wick once you have a nice crystal. The empty space left behind has huge surface area. It will crystallize out even faster and less cloudy.

amazing ! thanks for the video

Love it!

Wow I already doing it thanks for the video

does this work? i need feedback before i actually start doing it and please don't troll me, i just wanna know if this works.

It works as you can see in the video

Among these methods, which one show result fastest?

I guess it always depends on the conditions (amount of water/salt, temperature, type of container...). I believe here it was the one in the flat glass container/bowl with the blue colouring.

How warm is the water like super hot or just the right warm??

You can choose. The hotter the water is, the more salt dissolutes an the more salt will eventually precipitate when it gets cooler

I was under the impression chemistry involved a bit more precision than 'as much salt as possible' lol

If you want to, you could calculate the exact maximum amount of a specific salt that dissolves in a certain amount of water at a certain temperature xD But I just used the easiest way to make a saturated solution. But that's also a message I try to convey: sometimes, chemistry can just be easy and beautiful ^^

Nice video. Any ideas why the nucleation site starts out white and only at a certain size the crystals become transparent? Seems like a weird phase transition.

I suppose there was still a lot of dirt in the solutions and beakers I used, so the crystals could not growth in there favorable configuration or other particles were included. Which would lead to more light scattering etc. So maybe at some point, the crystal could finally grow more ideally... But I am not entirely sure, I admit. ^^'

1:30 was the water warm Or cold can you please tell me plz reply im interested And can I use a tread Or a shoelace

I used cold (room temperature) water but you can also use warm water. More salt will dissolve then, but the crystallization will already start when it gets colder. You can use both, thread or shoe lace. The latter should be made of cotton, if possible

A lid would prevent the water to evaporate. Then crystals would not grow as fast.

@@chemistry_kim7887 rate of evaporation isnt that effective, and doesn't slow speed when container is closed. But it only matters after most crystallization is occured. higher molarity speeds up initial reaction time.

how many amount of salt did u put please reply 💕

I used as much salt als needed to get a saturated solution. That means I put the salt into the defined amount of water with a certain temperature until no more salt could be dissolved.
