For this video, I am going to be making some laughing gas, aka nitrous oxide. Then, I'll be using it to carry out the classic Barking Dog experiment. To make it, I'll be using the safer method, which uses sodium nitrite and hydroxylamine hydrochloride. The typical industrial process, using ammonium nitrate, can be quite dangerous.

This video has been a long time coming and I am glad that I could finally release it. I have been promising people this forever!

NileRed Capturing the natural beauty of chemistry I find that chemistry is often taught poorly or without a purpose. Because of this, people tend to lose interest and sometimes even start to hate it. In each video that I make, I try to balance theory with purpose. My goal is to capture the natural beauty of chemistry in fun and interesting ways. In terms of education, I have a BSc in Biochemistry, with a minor in pharmacology. However, I've always been a lot more drawn to applied chemistry. So after finishing my degree, I worked as a lab tech in an organic lab, and then as a chemistry grad student. However, I ended up leaving my graduate studies early to focus on this channel. Now, making chemistry videos has become my full-time job! Email: admin@nilered.ca
