Chemistry videos - chemicum.com

In order to make chemistry lessons more interesting, 111 chemistry videos are being developed by scientists and lecturers from Chemicum of University of Tartu, Estonia. "100+ Experiments in Chemistry" is designed for chemistry teachers for showing commented experiment videos in front of classroom. In addition to a school programme, some interesting chemistry phenomena is explained: Caesium reaction with water was filmed with the help of a bomb group. What is cold light or chemiluminescence. Thermoreactive compounds change color upon heating. Very odd reaction - "The Pharaoh's Serpent". Nitrocellulose explodes and puts formula model car on the move. Why pyrophoric iron, silane and white phosphorus ignite spontaneously. Some magic - clock reaction and magical color changes. What is the working principle of batteries, fuel cells and supercapacitors and how to prepare these yourself? What makes fireworks colorful (green, red, yellow)? Time fuse can be used for igniting safely some pyrotechnic mixtures, for example aluminothermic mixture or "Vulcano". Let's prepare a color changing flower and some chemical seaweed.
