Is There a Gas That Can Be More Dense Than A Liquid? | Quickly Unraveled

Have you ever wondered why does water start to bubble up when it's boiling? And is there a way to stop vapor from rising but instead stay at the bottom? Well, for some reason, I have, so I did some research, found the answer and made this lovely video to show it to you.

  • This channel is so all around pleasing! The astetics, the narration and the writing! For 4 minuets, I forget about everything and embark on an adventure to find gas.

    I was just making coffee when this question just popped in my head. The pot illustration is based on the one I use for heating water for my coffee.

    Cody's lab literally floated an alchohol-water mixture on xenon gas at high pressures over three years ago mate.

    This is wonderful! I love the way you presented the information in a way that's both informative and fun, and kept me guessing! Even though I've learnt about ages ago, the way you posed it as a question throughout the video kept me hoping you would find a gas more dense than liquid! Also, the animation and sound effects are extraordinary! Thanks for another great video!

    This brought back all my chem & physics classes knowledge!
  • It was very interesting break down of the problem and attempts to go around it which makes you think a bit out of the box and this type of thinking can be applied just about anywhere. Amazing presentation skills as well.

    This channel deserves more subs

    Very nicely summarised, this takes me back to my thermodynamics classes :P It'll be quite a wild time if we can ever achieve a gas that is more dense than a liquid, but I'd love to see some developments on that. Great work on this, looking forward to more!
  • And just when I thought your videos couldn't get better, I find out I can also use them as a way to brush up on my Spanish by turning on Closed Captioning while I watch. ¡Excelente!

    Great video. I was wondering if you used different materials for the gas and the liquid that maybe you could bypass the problem a bit, by using heavy molecules for the gas and light molecules for the liquid. A quick search revealed that the lightest liquid we know of, 2-methylbutane is about 44 times heavier than Tungsten hexafluoride which is also the heaviest gas. So no luck there!

    This was so interesting good job! New Sub!

    Super underrated channel!
