Liquid NaK Floating On High Pressure Xenon Gas

Does anyone know what the solid xenon and water forms? My guess is xenon hydride but that just seems wrong. also any ideas on how to keep the NaK from sticking to the glass, I'm thinking an oil coating but then the xenon will just dissolve into that... Help me make videos by donating here: https://www.patreon.com/CodysLab

Are you going to do something with NaK with alternative energy?

I always wanted to see something like that. I was wondering if one could use UF6 in its gas form for that. But I don't have access to Uranium or Flour and I would have to heat it up to >230°C to make that work. (if I remember correctly) So, if I understand you correctly, you used Xenon (or supercritical Xenon) to float some light liquit metal?

You are right about the solid reaction with water- I didn't believe it at first. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clathrate_hydrate" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clathrate_hydrate</a> Also, don't accidentally anesthetize yourself ! :-)

This was the first thing that popped into my head when you said the pressurized CO2 from the previous is half the density of water

That's VERY interesting. I didn't think you could form clathrates at room temperature. When I heard you say xenon/water solid, I thought of this study <a href="http://www.nature.com/nchem/journal/v2/n1/abs/nchem.445.html." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.nature.com/nchem/journal/v2/n1/abs/nchem.445.html.</a> I wondered if you'd achieved that somehow, but if I'm converting properly, you'd need something like 7000 PSI. Maybe you can be the first youtuber to make metallic hydrogen. ;-)

I'm so excited for some more super critical gas experiments.

I hadn't considered the possibility of clathrates when suggesting this experiment to you. Perhaps try an organic solvent such as acetone, THF or toluene that do not hydrogen bond and do not form clathrates. If you insist on using NaK alloy, you can stop it sticking to the glass by preparing the alloy in dry THF then after it stops reacting with residual water, transfer the alloy with some on the THF under an inert atmosphere (in a glove-bag or similar), freeze-pump-thaw and then add the xenon. The THF will stop the alloy sticking to the glass walls. Note that the THF will eventually turn blue due to dissolved electrons from the metal.

By the way, don't try UF6 or WF6 as they could react with the glass.

Have you given any thought on doing some Schlieren or Shadowgraph photography on these gas tubes you are creating?
