Description
|
|
Chemical Sunset
|
Creates the Tyndall Effect in a beaker.
|
|
Chemilumiescence
|
Create a luminescent effect akin to a commercially available glow stick.
|
|
CO2 Fountain
|
Generate carbon dioxide and demonstrate that it has properties very different from that of air.
|
|
CO2 States
|
Use dry ice to demonstrate the three phases of matter in a single demonstration.
|
|
Crushed Can
|
Demonstrate gas laws and the action of atmospheric pressure by crushing a soft drink can.
|
|
Egg in a Flask
|
Watch as atmospheric pressure forces a boiled egg through an impossible opening.
|
|
Elephant Toothpaste
|
Catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide rapidly releases oxygen gas, producing large quantity of foam.
|
|
Endothermic Glue
|
Witness the obvious effects of an endotheric chemical reaction.
|
|
Erlenmeyer's Balloon
|
Use gas laws and atmospheric pressure to line the interior of an Erlenmeyer flask with a balloon.
|
|
Filling Flask
|
Demonstrate the action of atmospheric pressure to spontaneously fill a flask with water.
|
|
Genie in a Bottle
|
Hydrogen Peroxide decomposes to form oxygen and hydrogen gas. Catalysis is demonstrated to speed up the reaction. An exothermic reaction is produced, providing a Genie-like effect

|
Hollow Pennies
|
Evidence of the activity series of metals and the multiple-layer nature of United States pennies.
|
|
Lycopodium Dust Explosion
|
A demonstration of the effect of surface area on combustion using a controlled, miniature dust explosion.
|
|
Mentos Eruption
|
A sudden reduction in gas solubility results in the rapid release of the gas from a soft drink bottle.
|
|
Natural Gas Bubble Bath
|
An investigation of surface tension, surfactants, the Marangoni effect, and combustion reactions.
|
|
Pyrotechnic Gummy Bear
|
A decomposition reaction of attention-grabbing quality.
|
|
Salt Water Hazard
|
Demonstrate how the density of liquids and buoyancy are related.
|
|
Solid Water
|
A demonstration of the phenomenom of super-saturation.
|
|
Whoosh Bottle
|
An attention-grabbing combustion reaction.
