One thing I forgot to mention though, was waste. Waste management is a huge part of chemistry and it can't be overlooked. If you aren't interested in handling and disposing of waste properly and safely, then chemisty isn't for you.

The safety aspect is no joke. I was young and dumb when I got started and almost killed myself trying to distill nitric acid in my room with no ventilation.

This video has me convinced that NileRed is Lawful Good while Cody’s Lab is Chaotic Good.

"how do you pick up chemistry experiments as a hobby" "you learn the chemistry behind it first"

Maybe you should also talk about your college times and your degree in biochem

I don't feel the need to mess around with dangerous chemicals when I can just watch you do it haha
So thank you! I love your videos! Stay safe!!!

A good message that not enough chemists and such on youtube seem to ever bring up. Thanks for being frank about it :)

up next: "Pouring Different Acids on my hand"

Thank you for being real unlike other chemists on YouTube it’s really cool and helpful thank you

Nile Blue: I'd not recommend destilation...
Me: proceeds to finish my ethanol destilation

Chemistry kits can still be a good way to start, even for adults.

I completely agree with this advice. I remember the first time I saw a project I wanted to do and had all of the chemicals and glassware I needed already on hand from previous projects, it felt great.

Nile, you're one of the few youtubers I would listen to talk about literally everything. I'm so glad that you revived this channel, it is something I wished you would do a long while ago. ❤

Can you please do one on cleaning glassware

Three videos in a week, your on a roll 😆

From my perspective as a chemist myself I cannot stress out enough how true you are, especially when you got to the dangerous point.
There a countless simple, non-dangerous synthesis availiable in books, you don't need to go to an University to study a bit of chemistry I guess

Watching your video have been always my guilty pleasure, i'm a chemistry student and your videos is my inspiration and give so much advantages, so in the future i really want to be like you, enjoying chemistry in a fun way, thank you nile red/nile blue

you are one my motivations for wanting to major in chemistry and I would really love to do stuff similar to you, doing random fun reactions, and showing people. I love science and ever since I've seen you just doing them for fun, it's really helped me to push for what I want to do in life

There are lots of legal restrictions too (depending on country you live in). Some chemicals are regulated and it may not be legal to make them either. Making pharmaceuticals can be illegal too. I mean rather innocent ones like aspirine or ibuprofene, not drugs like meth. For example EU regulates items like nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide (precursors for explosives) and both EU and US regulate many chemicals considered a precursor for drugs or a chemical needed for some drug related synthesis steps (like some allotropes of phosphorus). When I studied chemistry it was mostly a combination of theory (reading lots of books and listening lectures about why some stuff happens) and then trying those up in the lab. In the lab you need good habits for safety that can be difficult to figure out yourself. It is also very easy to slip into bad habbits when there is nobody else correcting you constantly like in a shared lab. Everyone working in a lap needs a habit of reading msds sheets for all chemicals you use and preferably everything you make too. That gives you quickly some sense like assuming most bromides are bad for you and most oxidesers come with fire and/or explosion hazard. Of cause the general rules are not enough but they are good to learn as well. I think hobby chemistry can be very limited in some countries (like no nitrations to get amines due to lack of nitric acid or at least a lot of paperwork to get some). You may need to be very careful if for example manufacturing any pharmaceutical agent is illegal. In a professional lab it was much easier with no such constraints.
