Brainiac Thermite eXperiment

Thermite is a powdered mixture of iron oxide and aluminium.
When ignited it burns at a 2500C. Which is very HOT!!

Molotov Cocktail

A Molotov cocktail consists of a glass bottle partly filled with flammable liquid, typically petrol, alcohol (methanol, ethanol, ...), or gasoline. When gasoline is used as the main ingredient, motor oil or sugar is commonly added to help the gasoline cling to the target. Put a piece of cloth dipped in oil into the bottle and ignite it. Due to small surface area of combustion, as well as a lack of air caused by the small and narrow opening, just a small flame is emitted. When thrown, however, the bottle breaks on impact, and with sudden oxygen available, the burning fuel quickly sets the target on fire in an explosive manner.

The Water Rocket

Water rockets, also called Bottle rockets or Aquajets, are like their model rocket cousins, except that these are powered by a combination of water and air pressure instead of a chemical propellant. The pressure vessel, the engine of the rocket, is usually a used plastic soft drink bottle.

The Baloon Bomb

This bomb is pretty easy to make. You just mix the two chemicals hydrochloric acid and zink together in a heatproof bottle. Combined together they will make a very flammable gas called hydrogen.

Mentos and Diet Coke Reaction

This is a very cheap and simple experiment. You just buy a big bottle of diet coke and some mentos mints. Drop some of the mentos in the coke and run (you will get wet if you don't)!

I am a huge fan of chemistry and wild experiments. This is why I made this site, so that you could visit my collection of experiments that I have found on the internet. This is the place to stay if you like big explotions, burning flames and big BANGS!!
