Hello all! Today we will be making phosphorus tribromide (PBr3) from red phosphorus and bromine (made in a previous video). I am hoping to release a "wet" chemistry video every Saturday, and a "dry," more theory based chem video maybe on Tuesdays. Let me know what you guys think.

Next Saturday video is: lidocaine extraction from anal lubricant.

The synthesis procedure was taken from here: http://woelen.homescience.net/science/chem/exps/PBr3_synth/index.html
