Dancing Flame

Teus, Feb 1st, 2022

Students witnessed the eerie green-blue flame produced after lighting hydrogen gas on fire.

Hydrochloric acid, copper sulfate pentahydrate crystals, and aluminum foil react in an Erlenmeyer flask, producing hydrogen gas. 

​

With this activity, students were introduced to physical chemistry as they performed combustion and exothermic reactions.
