No one knows, Gallium is such a soft metal that it can melt the moment you put it in your hand. To test the interesting properties of this metal, the YouTube channel Slow Mo Guys slowed down their very interesting movements.
Gallium is a special chemical element. At ambient temperature, it is a soft, silvery-green metal. But when in a liquid state, it looks like white silver and looks like a mirror.
Gallium is a special chemical element.
According to Wikipedia, Gallium is a liquid at a temperature greater than 29.76 degrees Celsius, above room temperature but below the human body temperature of 37 degrees Celsius. That’s why this metal usually melts as soon as it melts. put on hand.
Because it is a rather special metal, Gallium is often used in many studies. Recently, the two guys Dan and Gav continued to have a test with Gallium to see how when participating in the test and being slow-motion, this metal will react.
The video is titled “Pouring a Liquid Mirror in Slow Motion”, roughly translated as “Close-up of the process of pouring liquid mirror in slow motion”.
Slow Mo Guys YouTube channel did liquid Gallium slow motion in three different scenarios. For the first time, they poured it over the speaker to see how it responded to vibrations.
They then decided to pour it out from a large cup onto the plate below. The effect when pouring this liquid metal looks like a river of mirrors.

In the end, the two guys Dan and Gav decided to pour Gallium on the drum to see what it would do when something hit it.
