⚗️ cyanotype ⚗️ chemistry ⚗️
In cyanotype, we employ K4Fe(CN)6 and a light-sensitive source of Fe(III), to displace K+ and form insoluble prussian blue. Here instead I added an excess of FeCl3•7H2O as a moisture-sensitive source of Fe(III). Dark shades of green and blue indeed develop initially, but we then proceed to form something else.

Today is one of those days where I accidentally write a 490 mb .XLS report file on the shared drive ... #AnalChem #RealTimeChem

💎⚗️🧪🧫🌧️ Deliquescent HgCl2 picks up moisture to form a solution. Some CoCl2•6H2O also enters and now the moisture content is directly reflected in the color of the solution.
This was filmed on a rainy day with some dry periods, and we see periods of crystal growth (⛅) and periods of crystal dissolution (🌧️) , remodeling the shape of the grains 💎.

MnCl2•5H2O 💎 in HgCl2(aq). After two days of dissolution and growth due to humidity variations, we're now gradually seeing very neat crystal shapes that develop.

Even though it's only a precursor, it's nice when it crystallizes so nicely like that #Chemtwitter #RealTimeChem #crystals https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1615985864181415937
