Great video! I'm a young aspiring chemist as well and it's nice to see others with the same interests on YouTube!

[ShaqShalom]

hey buddy, well done for your effort and motivation :)

[estehbread]

I love your ambition in what you do. Keep it up!

[NathanNGM]

Ha ha I love your commentary! Great video and sound science. I'm going to check out your other stuff for sure!

surely in the formation step of silicic acid you could use HCl instead of H2SO4, and then wash out the former NaCl after drying. seems like a much cheaper approach, cause HCl is readily available. if the yield is reduced, just freeze the thing and let it crash out. or am I missing something

Can you make elementary si by heating it with coal ?

[redminote]

How to determine the percentage of pure silicon dioxide? Any formula?

[genkidama]

taking chemistry lessons from teenages wow, shit you can do in 2019 on youtube is insane !

[kcslai]

you know what, our ministry of education which known as MPM
want us to prepare silica gel from sand, wth they are thinking!

[charlesdye]

Your way of going greener? Can you drive deeper into how you recover the silica from a mine? Lots of solar mining operations where this is?

Gerçekten harika videoların var
Dünyada hep senin gibi insanlar çok olsa
Teşekkür ederim siz bir harika ve kimya kahramanısınız

Is it possible to turn siO2 into quartz crystal ?

[cbstar]

U are an amazing youtuber and keep making such amazing videos people nowadays are not into these amazing videos that's why you don't have more. Views but people like me who go to college really need your videos thanks and sorry about that long comment

How is this turned to liquid silicone rubber?

[thedon]

4:19 not really understanding the reaction here.. how is Na2(SiO2)7 possible?

[pepcarmona]

Do you think this is useful to use it for plants? Amorf Silicon dioxid?

[southof.nowhere]

Good stuff, man! Using an alteration of your method with oxalic acid. I think im going to stop with the purified sand until I have a more proper set up to handle molten sodium hydroxide though lol.

[abdullahbakri]

What is that peice rotating in side the beaker what u call it please

[sauroman]

Now how to turn into pure silicon?Want to make infrared window/filter.

[geoffgeoff]

Two questions. Why didnt you just crush quartz? How did you get other minerals out, such zs zircon etc.
