Argon just needs the right environment to bring out their wild side. Get them in a mosh pit with some hydrogen, add a little pulsar dubstep, and the result is Argon monohydride. Computer simulations also show that if Argon got into a gang bang with 60 carbons, they would merge into a stable molecule.

Brings me back to my youth in 1960 finding a pound of silver nitrate in a college dump. Made some beautiful things with the reduced product. Btw, newish alloy called “Argentum” alloyed with germanium instead of copper. Much more corrosion resistant and does not develop fire scale like sterling does in manufacture.

Thanks again for post another video of chemical elements! 👍 For who doesn't know the name of my country, Argentina, is inspired on the famous "Río de la plata" ("silver river" in English) because Spanish explorers of the XVI century beleaved that the actual Paraná river was a path to a huge silver deposit (the Potosí's mines, in Perú) and, in 1810, the founders of the country took the legend to bautize it with the actual name, so by analogy "Argentum/Argent" became in "Argentina". 😊

I really love your videos! Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge! I collect Silver and just wanted t suggest that you might prefer using the Canadian Silver Maple leaf coin as it is even more pure (.9999 fine) as opposed to the American Silver Eagle which is .(999 fine)... they actually both have the same amount of silver but the Silver eagle has a small amount of copper to make it stronger. Additionally, the Silver maple should be slightly cheaper by a dollar or two per ounce. Thanks Again!

Great lesson on Ag! There are so many applications using silver that it boggles the mind. It's astounding that such a miracle metal has a price of only $ 18.00 per ounce. Should the world catch hold of that amazing arrangement, a thousand times the price is not out of question!

Note that silver does NOT have the highest thermal conductivity, just the highest among pure metals. There are plenty of substances and even pure elements that conduct heat much better, for instance diamond, but even that doesn't hold a candle to a heat pipe.

Very educational. Thanks for another great and informative video! 👍

Alloying silver with germanium as well as copper (and I think traces of other elements) makes it resistant to tarnish. The alloys are sold as “Argentium”

If there was a game that involves silver or restoring silver to its original luster, the player must also look for aluminum, water, table salt and baking soda. It would make a great little puzzle or side-quest.

It was not clear from the pronounciation, but there are three distinct silver compounds with similar pronounciation but different nature: silver NITRATE - AgNO3 - the photographic stuff silver NITRIDE - Ag3N - the explosive stuff silver NITRITE - AgNO2 - reagent useful for organic chemistry, e.g. oxidation and substitution reactions

I need you as my techer in my life.. i love chem and your demonstration skills

I love the conclusion of this video, "silver is shiny" 😂😂

The silver crystals remind me of a Mandelbrot pattern. Beautiful - it would be nice to see or have crystals of sliver on another surface, which could be stored out of the liquid.

Didja know that Grand Coulee dam, in Washington State, uses silver windings in some of their generators? WWII saw a hug demand for copper, so generators were being stripped and re-wound in silver from the US mint. The metal is still part of the US mint inventory, and there is no need for guards; the silver is in the rotor! They were supposed to revert to copper after the War, but it never happened due to costs. They are a tiny bit more efficient than their copper brethren...

When my silver jewelry or silver tea set is tarnished I use toothpaste the kind with no abrasive in it and put tooth paste all over it let it sit for about 30 mins and then wipe clean it takes all the tarnish off then I use distilled water to wash the stickiness of the toothpaste residue off and after that I only paint my silver jewelry in clear fingernail polish to prevent tarnish for a long time until the push flakes off but it's a good thing to put on when you get tired of having to clean your silver jewelry, or if you don't want to do that either just get silver jewelry with a Platinum plated or rubium plated I have to worry about it anymore but I like the way silver looks so I don't like buy that kind.

Ancient Greek Coinage. Archaic period (until about 480 BC). The earliest known electrum coins, Lydian and East Greek coins found under the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, are currently dated to the last quarter of the 7th century BC (625-600 BC). These coins were issued either by the non-Greek Lydians for their own use or perhaps because Greek mercenaries wanted to be paid in precious metal at the conclusion of their time of service, and wanted to have their payments marked in a way that would authenticate them. These coins were made of electrum, an alloy of gold and silver that was highly prized and abundant in that area. In the middle of the 6th century BC, King Croesus replaced the electrum coins with coins of pure gold and pure silver, called Croeseids. The credit for inventing pure gold and silver coinage is attributed by Herodotus to the Lydians. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Greek_coinage

Fun fact. The 1966 Australian 50cent coin contained silver

I had a horrible experience with silver nitrate. In my school, we had a science exhibition and my team and I were demonstrating fun and interesting chemical reactions. One of which was dissolving copper pellets in silver nitrate solution to form copper nitrate and obtain silver on surface of copper pellets. When I was disposing off the the remaining mixture of copper, copper nitrate and silver nitrate, a lot of it splashed onto my hand and my hand was covered in black spots for a month! I wish i had known this trick earlier

the line about the link between farts and tarnishing is great. now I’ll never forget that sulfides react with silver!
