In 9th grade physics class, we made a contact explosive called Ammonium Iodide. I forget the method but it involved mixing ammonia and iodine and letting it dry on a paper towel. It came out a dull brown color, and would give off a smallish boom plus heat if hit with a pencil eraser. Of course the teacher was not thrilled, but we only used very small amounts, just to see if it worked.
Why would anyone in their right mind visit the top of any skyscraper in the winter??? This actually looks like the Empire State Building. Really, really stupid.

DeleteRembering now, it might have been called Ammonium Tri-iodide.
DeleteI remember zinc + hydrochloric acid. It creates hydrogen gas.
DeleteEvidently hummingbirds are attracted more by vision cues than smells.
ReplyDeleteThat is a dirty trick to play on a hummingbird who flew 3000 miles for your enjoyment.
DeleteAnd somehow it made the trip w/o your help, or anyone else's and is still alive. I am sure that dress was not the objective of the long flight.

ReplyDeleteWhat’s going on in #1? I thought fires at an oil well were a bad thing.
