Making Acetone from Calcium Acetate

Hey guys, this video has been a long time coming. The acetone that we make here from calcium acetate isn't super pure and it is more as a proof of concept than anything. The yield also isn't super amazing. I also just noticed that the last video has almost the same thumbnail...oops RIP. Always remember the flask and the heating mantle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Merch - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ■ NileRed is now available on Nebula! https://go.nebula.tv/nilered (when signing up with this link, a portion of your membership directly supports the channel) Join the community: Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/nilered Discord - https://discord.com/invite/3BT6UHf NileRed Newsletter - https://nile.red/home#newsletter You can also find me here: Facebook - https://m.facebook.com/NileRed2 Instagram - https://m.instagram.com/nile.red Twitter - https://mobile.twitter.com/NileRed2 Nile talks about lab safety: https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/ftACSEJ6DZA
