In this video, Mr. Krug decomposes sodium chlorate into sodium chloride and oxygen gas, then shows how the pure oxygen environment can be used to cause an explosion.
Now that's why I used to enjoy chemistry at school: Burning wooden splints, messing with the bench gas, setting off thermite reactions in people's bags, igniting waaaaay too much magnesium ribbon, 'accidentally' dropping sodium down the sink... Ah, happy days. 🤭 🇬🇧
I'm confused about how the oxygen continues to be generated? Wouldn't it all escape the tube as a gas, when the substance was first melted? The liquid in the bottom of the tube is only NaCl right?
Wood is mostly hydrocarbons, and they're undergoing combustion, so the primary products are CO2 and H2O. However, some of these compounds undergo an incomplete combustion, so we actually get a variety of carbon compounds, including carbon soot and carbon monoxide, among others.

"Lets add some more!" 🔥🔥🔥😈
Bet your TA just loves cleaning your glassware. 😄. Nice video, good explanations.
Ha! I wish I had a TA. I do all the cleanup myself. Thanks for your kind comments!
@@JeremyKrug Are you a high school teacher?

It is not liquid NaCl. if the liquid was hot enough to be liquid NaCl, it would glow red
How about decomposition of potassium chlorate and potassium ferrocyanide bang! What is happening here?
That's one angry regurgitating test tube!
Can you explain wood reaction please

Sir how to make from NaClO2 to NaClO3??
R.I.P. test tube
Good thing test tubes are cheap!
That's why they use it on airplanes to create oxygen for the masks. Lol.
A better way is hydrogen peroxide and manganese dioxide. Genie in a bottle.
nice solid-gas hybrid rocket fuel, salty
Sodium chlorate rocket
That's actually something I'm currently working on
Sodium chlorate . Oxidizer.
Wtf 😳 that's power from same grams 🧐 mmmm 🤔
😵😵😵😵😵🇧🇷
