Get some ice? Instantly?

Fascinating chemistry 83 903 13

The liquid is sodium acetate, sodium acetate, in simple terms. Getting it at home is a piece of cake. Take baking soda and vinegar, or even better - vinegar essence - you will have to evaporate less. Connect them gradually until an approximately neutral reaction, that is, until the hissing stops. There is no need for special precision or purity here. Evaporate, cool, you get a monolithic piece. There may still be some solution left on top; if it hasn’t been evaporated enough, pour it away. What remains is sodium acetate, or rather, its crystalline hydrate. The rest is simple. Put it on the fire, your piece melts. Carefully pour the clear melt into another bowl to get rid of sediment and debris at the bottom. Pour the clean melt hot into a transparent glass, cover with a dust cloth so that it does not accidentally freeze ahead of time, and cool to room temperature. Liquid - liquid. But as soon as you drop a tiny grain of the same sodium acetate there (you can get it from what’s left after draining), the liquid will harden before your eyes! The composition can be used repeatedly! Good luck!

Even if I can’t do it, I mixed soda with vinegar, waited until there was no white salt left, then poured a little water, cooled it in the refrigerator, threw in a grain of salt and nothing, touched it with my finger, nothing, what am I doing wrong?
Py.sy already spent all the vinegar) XЪ

I don’t know how much it all depends on vinegar or soda (year of production), I tried it several times. no way... I just pour a lot of water, or vice versa, but it doesn’t want to react, below in the description it says to first evaporate everything to a powder, and then melt this powder, I set it to melt (without adding water XD) it melted but turned pink very little liquid and it froze from everything) after removing all the vinegar in the house, I decided to leave a comment here (in the hope that they will help) and will do something more familiar - soldering electrical circuits)

please describe the process) Well, after steaming, you got crystals all over the bottom of the vessel, and then.... you poured boiling water over it? If so, how much, I’m even dumb)

In short, I mixed vinegar with soda. I put it on the stove and forgot about this matter. I remembered when it started to smell like smoke. I took it off the stove, the contents of the fire were charred (well, don’t throw away this black rubbish for me), I left it to cool. I filled it with cold water)) and put it outside under a napkin. after 12 hours I remembered and went to carry out tests))) The solution was some kind of gray with a grim color, but it froze when I threw a match there

nothing new) but all the same, thanks, but in order to put it on gas and forget everything about it, I don’t have a vessel that I don’t mind (in principle, I waited until the salt itself began to melt, but there was so little solution there, and in some places it began to solidify, there was even cloudy grayish in color, I poured boiling water over it, it dissolved, but when it cooled down it still didn’t want to harden

I did this on an electric stove. Try it in a can of condensed milk, for example. Pour vinegar and soda on the donut, the reaction of the rash goes away, etc. I waited for about 2 hours until the hissing stopped)
