The droplet slowly cools below the freezing temperature, getting in a super-cooled state. Something kicks off the freezing reaction and the whole thing freezes rapidly, giving off heat (Solidifying is an exothermic reaction) i.e. the droplet going from bright to dimm to bright. All the Bismuth was already absorbed by the crucible by the point we see the little gold bead :)

Not surprised that bismuth metal works as a collector metal, what did surprise me is being able to just throw Pepto tablets into the crucible and have them break down into metal like that. That is so much easier than Nile Reds way of getting bismuth metal from those pills lol. All jokes aside though, that is brilliant and probably way safer than lead.

I completely agree. I think I know why this works, but would love Cody to explain it. But I think it works exactly the same way as using lead as an accumulator metal. Pepto contains metallic bismuth in it, so when it’s heated to high temps like this, the organic compounds (binders) burn away leaving just the metal. Then the process is exactly the same as cupelling with lead without the hazards of using lead.

love the chemistry/metallurgy vids

Wow, this is one of those things that you never think of and the someone like Cody does it and it's like dang, that's so simple how are we only now getting to this point. Bismuth and lead share a lot of the same properties in terms of alloys and melting points. Bismuth was even often confused for lead because of the similar density and melting point. But the thing they don't share is the toxicity. The only thing is that lead is the thirty-sixth most abundant element while bizmuth is the sixty-fifth most abundant. So while there is less of it, I still think my following statement applies because you have made assays safer in terms of resources used. You deserve a Nobel in chemistry my guy,

Cody, you made my day. Just raw passion for applied science.

The cat felt the burn when you touched the bead lol. You two are connected.

What a neat trick! Get the lead out if you don't need it. One nitpick, I would guess bismuth fumes are less toxic than lead fumes because lead is pretty bad whereas you can eat Pepto Bismol, but don't overdo it. Most fumes are at least somewhat bad for you. Whatever's left is probably outweighed by using electric rather than gas heating though.
