Interesting fact: Dextrose is the same as glucose as we think of it (it's obviously just the dextro- enantiomer of glucose but as far as commercial products they are the same). Our body can only use d-glucose for energy and it cannot use l-glucose. So only d-glucose (dextrose) is found in nature. L-glucose can be made. It tastes indistinguishable from dextrose but since your body can't use it it doesn't have the calories that d-glucose has. It's also ok for diabetics since it won't raise your glucose levels. It is too cost prohibitive to use as a no calorie sweetener otherwise it would probably be on the market.

(+stonent) Just like the M/H (morphine vs heroin) IV studies, in the Dextro/Levo-Methamphetamine study said that IV’d they are indistinguishable from each other at the equal doses (Dextro is exactly three times as potent as Levo, and H is exactly three times as potent as M). But intranasal or oral, L is practically pointless.

Holy crap for my undergraduate chemistry lab, we were given a solution really similar to that one (might be the same one!), and was told to use our analytical skills to identify the reaction steps. All we could come up with in a 3 hour time frame was that o2 was required (shook bottle in vacuum and nonvacuum), there are pressure drops at certain points of the reaction, and that the unknown compound has two states..

I prefer to just add tidbits of info here and there, that way it doesnt get too boring :p

I did this experiment for my depth study in year 11 chemistry and it was so much fun!

You can make a more interesting shake flask experiment by using Indigo Carmine, so called the "Chemical Traffic Light." It starts yellow, if you gently swirl the solution it turns red, if you shake it hard it turns green. I believe its made in a similar fashion as well.

Thanks it was such a good idea to our Chemistry expo. Your blue bottle experiment

this was SO much fun!!! we got to shake it 10x so far, and it's just so exciting every time! i'm going to send a bottle in to kindergarten with my daughter.

If you added a small bit of oil, would it prevent oxygen from reacting with the top of the solution since it would float on top? But shaking it should allow the reaction to occur.

I like making this in small ~5 ml bottles. Divide all the numbers at the beginning by 100 and add 1 drop of blue (its a lot so it is slower, but it works).

Hey NileRed, there are some other interesting observations you can make in the blue bottle experiment: 1. Prepare three "blue bottles". One like in your video, the second one with 5x higher KOH concentration, the third one with a concentration half as high. Immediately after preparing the solutions, place them into sunlight. The colour of them should change to purple, depending on the concentration. (more KOH => more purple) 2. Let these three bottles stand for about a week. The colour should change to yellow, orange or red, depending on the KOH concentration. Love your videos man!

Thanks for the great video, Nile. I was wondering whether if this process is exothermic or endothermic?

You can also do a much slower, less exotic version of this. You need a fairly dilute solution of copper(II) ammonia complex. Just stick a piece of copper metal in the bottle and wait. It turns colorless but it takes a long time (1-2 weeks for me), but the transition from colorless to blue is quite fast. CuCl2 makes a green version as per a Nurdrage video.

I used this for my science presentation. Thanks Nigel.

Does this work with thymolphthalein? It would be also interesting to see a synthesis of thymolphthalein from Thyme.

I wonder if adding an amount of paraffin mineral oil to the bottle (just enough to cover the surface of the solution and separate it from the oxygen in the bottle) would work out well to prevent the top of the solution from turning blue until it's shaken. I don't know for certain if paraffin mineral oil would react with anything in the solution though. It's of pretty low reactivity, and it's just a 10-carbon chain with some hydrogens. It could be an interesting way to get the solution perfectly clear if it would work the way I'm imagining. I've never actually taken a proper chemistry class though, so I don't know if this is nonsense or not.

I did this experiment i have a question it's been a few hours the bottle became yellow like pure yellow it still turna blue but it is yellow why?

can this be done in reverse? have the solution blue ( or any color) then when shook makes it clear?

I once did a similar demonstration for my science fair when I was 12. I think it was called the Traffic lights reaction, which uses indigo carmine instead of methylene blue. It looked so cool.

I promise officer it’s a cool science experiment.

KOH is more difficult and expensive than NaOH to come by. Is there a special reason for using KOH. I understand there is a case for KOH in some experiments. 16 gm KOH = 0.285 moles, aprox. 11 grams NaOH mole equivalent. I have both but I have to order in KOH but NaOH can be obtained from the supermarket.

it almost seems like you just made disappearing ink. that would a cool video!

is it because there is no blue pigment? the blue that we are seeing is a fractal of blue spectrum being reflected, while the other colors of light are passed or absorbed by the geometric structure of the compound. when the solution sits then the geometry of the compound changes as oxygen is displaced, making it clear when no light gets reflected.

Hello, How many times the color changing use to occur? I'd like to prepare a permanent demonstration of chemical reactions, putting this solution in a looping system including an agitation step (to turn it blue) and a non agitation step (to turn it clear again) The idea is to run with this looping several times a day. Also the original idea is never exchange the solution. It's possible?

there is a chemical reaction that does a similar thing- it goes from red to blue and back over and over - but there needs to be a medium to allow it to grow like a crystal would out of a super saturated solution. also, the blue becomes surrounded by the red and back on and on...until all of the medium is used up...but very cool looking leftovers, the bands and all...just can't remember where i read about that, pop sci, discovery or sci american...

So when are you going to make a rave club with all the colour changing chemicals? (At least this and the stoplight and the modified one, and that Russian one)

One question I had while doing this experiment myself. Is the oxygen used up or if you let it stand to change color back to clear is the oxygen released again? From my observation after a few times the pressure in the bottle is decreased (basically the bottle gets deflated). So either there is a temperature change or there is consumption of gas in the bottle.

@MadScientist267

There's a reaction that demonstrates how this works if you want to see it for yourself... And easier, possibly safer, than filling the bottle full of pure O2 lol NaOH sequesters CO2 in the presence of water and will cause a bottle to all but completely collapse. NaOH + CO2 -> Na2CO3 + H2O Put a little vinegar and baking soda in the bottom of a plastic bottle and let it react out, just enough of each to fill the bottle with CO2. Cap loosely (must vent!) until the reaction is over and the bubbling stops completely. Now drop a bit of excess NaOH in it, slam the cap home and shake it up... The hydroxide will start eating the CO2 out of the bottle, and since it's the only significant gas present, a rather tidy vacuum is formed, and the bottle collapses.

Why can't this reaction cycle happen indefinitely? Will the Potassium Hydroxide slowly react with the Dextrose over time?

If anyone would like to understand why the solution is blue I would recommend reading about conjugated double bonds and HOMO LUMO transitions. In a very simplified somewhat incorrect synopsis, the more conjugation you have the closer the unstable and stable pi orbitals are which means that lower energy light is able to excite the electrons. This brings the emitted light into the visible spectrum allowing us to see it. This is how our shirts are colored and how sunscreen works.

Are they using the same principle to make disappearing ink ?

With the increase of temperature, shouldn't the solubility of O2 would diminish, causing the reaction to go slower? Perhaps the agitation would minimize this enough for the reaction to occur almost instantaneously. But even if the kinetic is favored by an increase of temperature, I would expected a decrease of available oxidizer, causing the reaction to at least finish faster. In 100ºC, I would expected a very quick, perhaps no change in color even if there is agitation.

Add a drop of a thin oil to seal off the top from oxygen so none of it is blue

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to take a fine(preferable fancy colored) powder that is not solvable in water and create a suspension. Then the powder would settle on the bottom of the bottle and you could shake it again to "color" the liquid. Would be a similar effect I think. if not better because the particles on the bottom of the bottle are harder to see.

Could you do it with two different colors?
