In this video we dissolve a one troy ounce platinum bar in aqua regia and then process that and make ampules of chloroplatinic acid. My previous videos on dissolving platinum: https://youtu.be/APxL87X92t4 https://youtu.be/MlMj3VEYBMA First we meticulously clean the beakers and condensing flask by first pyrolyzing them in an oven at 500 celsius for 24 hours. This destroys any residual organics. Then we boil dilute aqua regia in them to remove lingering inorganic residues.

Thoriated tungsten rods contain 2% thorium and are easily available online. They're among the easiest to get sources of radioactive materials other than smoke detectors. To extract the thorium, we need a way to remove the tungsten in the rods. Tungsten is resistant to acids but it is vulnerable to hydrogen peroxide. Although i prefer using electricity which is even cheaper than peroxide ..read more
