This channel has a few gems that are the perfect illustration of why most people get into chemistry... My old chemistry teacher once helped some classmates when they were designing a chemical timer for their homemade fireworks. He glanced at part of their notes then immediately gave his input. when they tried to make like they weren't making what were basically homemade explosives he went "don't you think I don't recognize what those notes are fore? why do you think I went to uni for this stuff?" His pointers made it work as a catalyst after it was fully timed out and would make it burn a lot cleaner. I just realized it's a good thing the man never got lungcancer.
Put some Lycopodium in the palm of your hand. Light a match and put it between the index and ring finger, angle your fingers 90° so the flame is above the heap of pollen. Swoop your arm in an arc downwards, and you should leave a nice flame-trail.
Lycopodium powder ignites because of the oxygen between grains as it enters the air. So when in a pile or the bottle, the powder cannot ignite because it's too compressed together.

This video is so statisfying
You should do a video on quantum numbers and atomic orbitals and how they relate.
Woo It looks so awesome!
Lyco jug and a bon fire is so fun 😳🐲🐉 the flame will follow the jug and makes for a fun dare
I want some of that
My sister went do culver academy’s I wonder if she was in the class
nice job getting on to daily dose of internet my guy
Gracias Amigo me ayudo mucho.
Dally dose of the internet sent me he is a RUclipsr Chekhov’s him out
whot
So if you could learn Lycopodium tricks, surely it would have many practical applications?
Is this used industrially anywhere? Being that hydrophobic must have some big applications
Metallurgy, pharmaceutical, and fireworks!
daily dose of lycopodium :D
Daily dose
*the ooblek of water*
How do you keep the flames from moving back into the bottle of Lycopodium?

@@nicholasdeitz5353 Oh hey it's another Deitz.
@@vertyisprobablydead a fellow Deitz do I sense?
@@nicholasdeitz5353 Indeed.
I knew it would happen one day... The deitz multiverse.
Whoever dislike this they are not nerds like us
Hi
Sir I am BSC chemistry degree complete but your company name
3 ed
now wash your hand
Someone who identifies as water: WE NEED TO CANCEL LYCOPODIUM ITS HYDROPHOBIC 😡
