Billing the videos as “real experiments, real science” Nurd Rage is my new favorite chemical YouTube Channel. I like the attitude of the narrator and I appreciate that this is real chemistry done by a real researcher. An easy indicator is that they are using vials (scintillation vials, actually) instead of test tubes.
Pro tip: many chemists refuse to use test tubes for their reactions unless they absolutely have to – they’re just too fragile and fiddly for everyday work, are hard to seal, and tip over when you set them down.
