This video provides an introduction to reaction profiles and explains the concepts of exothermic and endothermic reactions, as well as activation energy. The speaker uses a graphical representation of the energy changes involved in...

This assignment comes to you from Chicago based artist Geof Oppenheimer. Geof's work reflects personal experience and the social and political atmosphere they were created in, and he wants you to make an object that does the same. John...

Molten Aluminum Volcano

Today I put the Leidenfrost effect to the test! Im trying out a great question from somebody on my facebook page. He wanted to know if a hot object will fall faster than a cold object through water. I set up my fishtank and dropped...

Cobalamin: Absorption and Metabolism

Ever wonder what would happen If you poured molten aluminum into a lava lamp? Me neither. Well, you voted, I listened! Some of my viewers on my Facebook, and G+ pages suggested that I pour molten aluminum into a Lava Lamp. That sounded...

You have probably heard of steel wool before. You can burn it and swing it around to create amazing sparks and effects. I thought it would be fun to attach steel wool to a drone and fly it around a beach at night. It turned our really...

Ok thats it, Fidget Spinner trend is over, cause this is the best one ever!! ;) I built a custom fidget spinner out of 1/4in aluminum plate and strapped 3 E sized rocket engines.



Really, I just wanted to do this. I saw...

I packed a fishtank completely full of water balls (water beads, water balz, orbeez, spitballs...). Im guessing there are over 10,000 in there!

This video discusses collision theory and how it applies to chemical reactions. The concept of activation energy and how it relates to the rate of a chemical reaction is explained. The video goes on to explore three ways that the rate of...

Pouring Molten salt into Water - Explosion!

What happens when you fill a ping pong ball with extremely flammable propane, then light it on fire? Does it spin really fast, or make a cool noise, or explode? The answer is yes!



Last video, I made a mistake. I forgot to...

Using a 200w induction heater to heat a bolt, then dropping it into liquid nitrogen. The liquid nitrogen starts leaking and science quickly devolves into shenanigans :)

In this video I explore some crazy ways to cook an egg, and kind of go into the science behind it. Plus, its a great excuse to break out the flamethrower! Making a squirt gun flamethrower is very dangerous.

I get a lot of...

In this video I wanted to see what happens if I poured molten aluminum into a carbonated liquid. Would it fall faster, or slower? Would it explode?! Then I poured molten tin into water to watch it explode in super slow motion.<br/>

Vitamin B6: Pyridoxal Phosphate

Recrystallize in enough methanol to dissolve, then place in refrigerator for large crystals (4 days) OR freezer for smaller (4-8 hours). do multiple smaller pulls.

I saw this video online, and wanted to try it out for myself. Hope you enjoy!

Heme Catabolism (1/2): Eukaryotic Reactions of Heme to Bilirubin

The video is a lecture presentation on rates of reaction. The speaker explains what is meant by rates of reaction and the different ways to measure it. They give examples of experiments to measure the rate of a reaction. The speaker also...

Gallium Vs High Pressure Tank

Blowing through a mound of sulfur powder creating a finely dispersed cloud which is then ignited. This is an analogue to the classic lycopodium powder experiment. Blowing through the dust will make a huge flame creating sulfur dioxide,...

The first Molten Aluminum video in a long time! After last weeks Oobleck video, many of you suggested for me to pour molten aluminum into Oobleck. It sounded like a fun experiment so I gave it a go!

We made a drone to toilet paper peoples houses!
