Fire, Fire, Fire!🔥
Sodium metal reacts violently with water!
Hydrogen peroxide + potassium iodide = Elephant Toothpaste!
The potassium iodide is a catalyst that speeds up the reaction.

You should definitely check out these simulations
Hydrogen gas is flammable 🔥
In this demonstration the hydrogen is produced by reacting magnesium metal with hydrochloric acid and then bubbling the hydrogen in some soapy water.

Elective - Intro to Chemistry
Prerequisite: Biology
Course Length: 1 Semester
Grade Level: 11-12
Course Description: This semester-long course introduces students to the fundamental concepts of chemistry. Without the use of traditional laboratory experiments, the course focuses on understanding key chemical principles through theoretical discussions, demonstrations, and virtual activities. Students will explore topics such as atomic structure, chemical bonding, the periodic table, chemical reactions, and the properties of matter. Emphasis will be placed on the practical applications of chemistry in daily life, as well as the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills. By the end of the course, students will have a foundational understanding of chemistry that prepares them for more advanced scientific studies.
And we will definitely blow stuff up 💥 😀
