Do not repeat the experiments shown in this video!
Today I will tell you about the most toxic metal on earth - about thallium. In the periodic table of chemical elements thallium lies on the bottom of group 13 having an atomic number 81. Let us start off with a little bit of history. Thallium was first discovered in 1861 by an English scientist William Crookes and also simultaneously by a French chemist Claude-Auguste Lamy. It was discovered thanks to the green colour of flames, that compounds of this metal would give. Thallium was discovered when scientists studied rocks containing lead. Nowadays, it is mostly extracted from sulfidic heavy metals, such as crookesite and “gicionite” if my rendering of their names is correct. I’ve got quite old pieces of thallium for my experiment that were produced back in 1970. Since then they have been strongly oxidized and covered in dark thallium oxide. Usually to protect thallium from getting oxidized it is stored in glycerol. Do not worry, we have taken all the necessary precautionary measures. Do not try this at home! To see the shiny surface of metallic thallium, I submerged my piece of thallium in concentrated nitric acid where it slowly began to dissolve forming nitrites of this metal. Thallium’s oxides have been washed away, the metal looks shiny with bluish shades. Without its oxides this metal can easily be confused with tin or other safe metals that is why thallium is quite treacherous. It can easily be melt down because its melting point is just 304 degrees Celsius. Molten thallium oxidizes very quickly when exposed to air covering in dark thallium oxide layer. This sets it apart from other metals belonging to group 13. For instance chemical activity of metals starting from aluminium and finishing with indium steadily decreases. Indium doesn’t even oxidise when it is exposed to air and remains shiny. Thallium, however, is more active and not only has +3 oxidation state as metals placed higher in the periodic table but it also has +1 oxidation state which is quite unusual. Thallium used to be considered alkali metal for some time after it was discovered. If an oxidized droplet of thallium is submerged in nitric acid, the oxide layer will immediately dissolve after that metal’s shiny surface can be seen. Thallium’s solidness is similar to that of lead. It is also quite soft and can easily be twisted. We also used to have thallium nitrate we could use for a few experiments in our laboratory. By the way thallium compounds are the most toxic among all metals because toxic arsenic, for instance, belongs to metalloids class but we will speak about toxicity a bit later. Having put off all the fears and switched the hood to maximum suction setting I continued running my experiment with this element. Thallium nitrate doesn’t dissolve in water well and looks like white crystals. Thallium compounds, thallium sulfate to be precise, had been widely used as rat poison until 1972 but later on the practice was abandoned, because it is too toxic and it became clear that thallium sulfate was toxic to people too. If you add potassium iodide to thallium nitrate solution, there will form beautiful yellow thallium iodide sediment. In spite of being toxic this chemical has a few applications.

    It is also a minor component (1.1%) in an alloy that melts at 41.5 C, the lowest-melting alloy that does not contain gallium, mercury, or an alkali metal. Or so Wikipedia says. So I tried it at home. I ordered a gram of thallium to go with the bismuth, lead, tin, cadmium, and indium that make up the rest of the alloy. I melted them together in a graphite crucible using a toaster oven, which did get hot enough to melt them all. I only needed about 0.6 g of Tl. It didn't quite work as expected, but pretty close: it got mushy at 44 C and melted entirely at 48 C, and repeated that behavior on cooling. In the solid state, it was sparkly and soft enough to scratch with a fingernail. The melt was cool enough that I could comfortably touch it. Unfortunately it sticks to everything, sort of like gallium alloys do. After touching it twice (with bare hands - stupid I know) while measuring its melting point, white lines developed on my toenails, which is a classic heavy metal poisoning symptom. I also began feeling a bit more lethargic than usual. So I got a little nervous and sent in a hair sample for testing. It revealed thallium levels too low to be fatal, but still 18 times the reference level and within a factor of 10 of being lethal. I had enough in me that it was probably having some toxic effect, although not quite enough to make my hair fall out. This was from an alloy that only contained 1.1% Tl, that I had only handled twice, and that was handled as the metal rather than a compound of it. Definitely take Thoisoi's concern seriously and be careful with this stuff. If the alloy had required 10x as much thallium, I would not be able to comment because I would be busy dying slowly and painfully.

    @@tayfundemir785 I have to read some of my expensive books from the uni first because the answer will not be found on wikipedia. 😉 So your raw material is feldspar? Finding iridium is VERY uncommon because usually it exists in crash sites of meteorites. What kind of analytics have you done to find out about those existing elements? What I can tell you now is that these elements differ dramatically by their electrochemical potential aka 'noble character', so they can be seperated rather easily. Thallium and scandium are quite basic metals in contrast to the others. Their standard potential is negative. First I would separate gold, iridium and silver.... and then only scandium and thallium remain in solution. What is your raw product like? What kind of procedures do you perform for creating the concentrate? And about what amounts are we talking here? Tons? In short: I need more information and I think KZread is not the best place for sharing it. 😉
