Why does the works and aluminum foil explode




















Let me know if you try it. Reply 7 years ago on Introduction. Understandable to use the Worx toilet cleaner. The link is below. But I also bought some because I gave what I made to my school.

I will for sure let you know if I do this experiment. Your students must love this. Not many things in school as exciting as an explosion in the classroom! For years I've wanted to make airborne soap bubbles with hydrogen inside so that when touched with a match would rupture with a good "pop".

Any idea of how to accomplish that with these materials? Reply 9 years ago on Introduction. When the kids trooped into the classroom, he'd be "washing" his hands in the sink, then, with a handful of bubbles, he'd "dry" them over a waiting Bunsen burner. Note, have your mouth open in a yawn before you ignite the bubbles! Then with the baloon full of explosive gas I could instead of pumping it under water I could blow it into a soap bubble ring and blow bubbles that way.

And then set them off with a butane lighter. Your dad was a cool teacher; kids musta loved him. You could do that. The larger bubbles will probably tend to rise, as the gas content will weigh about one-third of the air around them; it will depend on the weight of the surrounding membrane Measuring, plotting, and explaining the difference in bouyancies of large vs. Yeah, the kids loved him, and he loved the kids. His teams were the only ones the school district ever sent to national academic competitions; there was a budgetary line item just for them, since they took state almost every year.

Unlike larger schools, his dinky rural school sent two teams to state, usually taking second or third in addition to first places. Unfortunately, he had to take early retirement for medical reasons and died early. The state student engineering society named an award after him. He did cool stuff like firing a rifle into a ballistic pendulum to measure the speed of the the bullet in the classroom!

I inherited a lot of his cool toys, like a 7' demonstration slide rule and a Super Ball look-alike that doesn't bounce he loved switching it in as he passed a Super Ball around when they were doing a unit on elasticity deformation; frustrated the daylights out of the jocks. When the state required him to clean "dangerous" chemicals out of his storage room, a lot of them found their way home. He shot up an old bottle of picric acid on my uncle's farm; no BOOM!

That would be a great instructable if you can get your hands on all the materials. I'm sure everyone else would love to see it too. Thanks for letting me know. His students must have sh " themselves. Introduction: Awesome Chemistry Experiment!!

Just 4 Simple Steps. By Biodynamic Follow. More by the author:. About: I'm a middle school science teacher going on 17 years in the classroom. I've taught 6th, 7th, and 8th graders.

First, gather all materials. You may want to have a fire extinguisher nearby just in case. Now we want to double check to make sure we captured hydrogen. Here's how I tested it. You can use your brains to figure out the best way with what you've got. I tied string to a beam running along the ceiling of my classroom. I had the string hang down near the middle of the room where I made sure there was no danger of anything catching fire.

I tied a large binder clip to the end of the string more mass. I attached the hydrogen-filled balloon to the binder clip. Unfortunately your kids are over 13, if you go to court they are going to say they want to see their dadUnless you have taped conversations, written proof or pictures most of this is not going to hold up in courtSo, advice time, talk to your attorney, buy a recorder and tape ALL phone calls, this means not answering if they call on any cell phone, unless you have a record buttonGet a journal start recording everything that you have issue withOnce you have a pattern established your attorney should be able to do something.

It is called Child Protective ServicesDocument the incidents, get medical records, dates, etceteraThen call up your local social services and report child neglect and endangermentGood luck, it sounds terrible for you. Is there any way to get your ex to talk to my ex? He never does anything fun with the kidsDo you think he'd take my kids to the fireworks store? They have their own money,and I'll pitch in for gas.

File a motion with the court requesting supervised visitation only just went through that myself! Other related question Can I grow better watermelon under lamps? The combination of the hydrogen chloride or sodium hydroxide in the fluid and the aluminum foil creates a strong chemical reaction which releases hydrogen gas; when that gas builds up to sufficient pressure, it ruptures the side of the plastic bottle, releasing the contents in an explosive burst.

However, bleach can change the color of the metal. Mixing toilet bowl cleaner and aluminum foil causes a chemical reaction that produces hydrogen gas.

The reaction between aluminum foil and toilet bowl cleaner produces aluminum chloride and hydrogen gas. After about 30 seconds, the reaction created pressure inside the bottle, blowing the cap off with a pop that according to witnesses sounded like firecrackers going off. Yes, vinegar can harm aluminum. Vinegar is acidic in nature. If you allow the vinegar to sit on your aluminum without rinsing for extended periods of time, it can cause further damage and corrosion to aluminum.

Muriatic acid can permanently etch and damage the aluminum pontoons, even causing the metal to darken and turn black. Just the opposite of what you are looking to achieve. Just be careful if you go down that route, dilute properly, and pressure wash immediately.
