Big Picture Science Podcast: A Real Gas

Created by Grok

Did you know, some gasses have a colour (like chlorine), many are invisible and have have no taste or smell (such as oxygen and nitrogen), and yet others are totally unreactive—the noble gasses, such as neon, argon and xenon? Also steam is an invisible gas. The stuff we see coming out of a kettle is condensed steam, but close to 100 degrees Celsius.
In this episode, Mark Miodownik – Professor of materials and society at the University College London and the author of It’s a Gas: The Sublime and Elusive Elements That Expand Our World, talks with executive producer of BPS, Molly Bentley.
