Gallium is a metal that's... bouncy?

[AshishBihani]

If it tends to form spherical droplets upon addition of acid, it's increasing the surface tension not decreasing it.

[Thrawnmulus]

Well it raises the surface tension, that's why it bunches up, low surface tension means it would spread out more

"its kind of like bouncy liquid metal"

I bet this dude is gonna lose his shit when i tell him what Gallium is.

[loreenzo]

Gallium is nice cuz it makes me remember terminator 2

[FullmetalScientist]

I’d like to add that the surface oxide contributes greatly to the stickiness and surface tension of the Liquid Metal. When you remove the oxide, then it balls up and droplets coalesce

[liambarstow]

This is really cool. I’ve been watching your videos since I was in first grade. And you are most of the reason I love science so much!😁

[lautaromorales]

The sulphuric acid removes the oxide layer. That's why it happens

[KrogOfTurtlePeople]

the acid causes it to bubble up because it removes the oxide layer

[RandomDude]

It also really likes aluminum, gallium and aluminum are best friends!

For some reason I saw high charity in the thumbnail

Humans: we discovered some cool shit, let's weaponize is.

What do you wanna do with that gallium? Wiggle wiggle wiggle

[humanskull]

Gallium is kind of cute for some reason

[Muhammad-ouwh]

Use concentrated sulfuric acid to clean gallium stains on your skin 👍😃

You should 3d print a mini Lego brick mold like you built the brick bridge out of ❤

[lityerambidextrous]

Thought you were about to say “pretty cool right ?” And just take all their content 🤣😭

Now i know where the 3d world clown comes from

Reminds me of that one boss in Super Mario 3D World
