What a fortuitous!
Such a grueling week,have been working on the chemistry experiment since last week!We our group attempting 2 experiment~Elephant Toothpaste & Fireball To tell the truth,our group really didn't endeavored much for this science week~However our travail didn't go in vain, instead we won the first ! Our experiment maybe seems fun and amusing but it requires much senior supervision! Especially the so called Elephant Toothpaste might be a bit vex but the reaction or the result are much more reassuring! Ingredients? Simple, just put some hydrogen peroxide into a large cylinder then hand wash(any type),third coloring(your choice),finally add some warm water to another test tube filled with potassium chromate,quiver it and dump it to the large cylinder.POP!!The reaction is~~~~
Doesn't it Look Like a elephant trunk~xD. This picture is much more smaller than mine~Forgive me for not uploading mine,coz it's not the right time to take photo! This picture it uses conical flask but I used a much larger type of cylinder but beware of the toxic gas released, they are poisonous and the pungent smell are extremely revolting plus aren't good for your physical brain.If you are attempting this experiment at home please for heaven sake wear the glove and mask if possible~
Secondly-Fireball~ I say that this part of experiment is the most radical and highlighted among those nosy students perhaps everyone! The judges are quite impressed with it,on the other hand fear of getting burn~They even have a tentative mind whether we gonna make it through or success during the juggling process! The Ingredients? Simple,first prepare some cotton ball,you either can tied it with a thread or just leave it as a ball shape.Secondly,sprinkle some lighter fuel,naptha kerosene or other similar petroleum fuel that is suitable for making fireball.Squeeze the excess fuel if overfilled! Last,light the fire ball with a lighter or bunsen burner in case you're in lab.Tahda~~~
Just look at those flame,sure wanna touch it right! But you must follow all the procedure mention above then you're safe to handle it.One thing,you must juggle the fireball constantly,to prevent the fireball get burn due to overburn and also to ensure the heat flow of the flame be stable! Take heed, if the fireball cotton darken or overheat pls use another piece of cotton~And that's all about the experiment~~~
Sounds pretty hard to believe that our chemistry team would won for just merely two simple experiment.Anyway,it's not my own effort,it's teamwork,it's God whom astonish the judges~I shine my class!hehe
Thank you Wei Ming for the contribution, Jia Wei for the helping hand and Jia Ling for the backup! After the verdict,we are on the verge to relinquish because of Jia Wei assurance to win we our team spontaneously cast out the hope of relinquish.The end result baffle us deeply especially me the one who are cynical minded.
Indeed when there's accord,there will be hope~
Never judge anything by your own acuity but aspire the things that are capricious!
To much too say but leave it to another day~It's time to hit the hay~
