Oddly enough, many lead compounds have a sweet taste. One of the most famous ones is probably lead acetate. It is highly water soluble and it looks and tastes like sugar.
I'll be making it in two ways:
1) Lead oxide + acetic acid
2) Lead metal + acetic acid + hydrogen peroxide

In this video I make hydrobromic acid from sulfuric acid and sodium bromide. You can also use potassium bromide.

This video is a special one and I made it specifically for World Diabetes Day, which happens every year on November 14.
Diabetes was originally diagnosed by tasting the urine of patients. In diabetics, the blood-sugar level is often extremely high and some of it spills over into the urine. So, if the urine tasted sweet, the person was likely diabetic.
This was the main way to test for diabetes for a long time, until there was a breakthrough in 1841 by Karl Trommer. From there, the technology was continually improved and today we have blood glucose meters.

Organic esters tend to be smelly molecules. Some of them are pleasant smelling, while others are quite pungent and unpleasant.
In this video, we will be using acetic anhydride to acetylate 1-pentanol to make banana flavoring.
The same reaction can be carried out on several other alcohols, however, to make other scents, such as mushroom, orange, or pear.

This method was borrowed from both Youtuber users NurdRage and UC235.
In this video we will be extracting DEHP from vinyl gloves, and then cleaving the ester bonds to form alcohols and phthalic acid. The phthalic acid is then converted to phthalic anhydride by dehydration and sublimation.
This phthalic anhydride will be used in further synthesis to make phenolphthalein and phthalimide (precursor to anthranilic acid).

This procedure was borrowed and adapted from NurdRage.
In this video, potassium nitrate is synthesized from ammonium nitrate from instant cold packs and grocery store potassium chloride.
I will use this potassium nitrate in a future video to make nitric acid from KNO3 + sodium bisulfate.

In this video, I'll be using the ferric chloride that I made in the last one, to make ferric ammonium citrate. This new iron compound is sensitive to UV and I'll use it to make my own blueprint.
In the next and last video, I'll be making some high quality cyanotypes and exploring the process in more detail.

In this video, we use some of the calcium acetate that was made in a previous video to make some alcohol jelly!
