Music like chemplayer (ok not quite, but the sentiment is there.)
Measuring and pouring like Tdep. (Extractions and Ire urea measuring is legendary.)
Camera focus and camera shake like <um>... me.
Measuring cylinder inspired by Jaws.
Lovely tight-zoomed shots from a good angle.
Editing great until the last sequence: too long then chopped with no finish.

Interesting but straightforward chemistry. Nice.

I enjoyed this.

What about occasional bloopers like Rhodanide?:p

Nice work on the chem video but the music is a little annoying.
I liked the way you 1st did the experiment in test tube quantities
before scaling the synthesis up.Looking forward to more chem videos.
