9th Annual "Magic of Science" Show
Again with the busy-ness!
Tomorrow night is the college's annual "Magic of Science" show. The Chemistry Department does this as an annual outreach to the community, to show how cool chemistry and other (*cough* lesser *cough*) sciences can be.
this will be a night of explosions, flames, explosions, glowing colors, changing colors, dancing flames, explosions, helix flames, and many other things. My students went heavy on the explosions this year. In actuality, they are not really explosions...they might not even be deflagrations... but I digress into total geekitude... Suffice it to say that things are busy and my time is not my own.
If you are in the great metropolitan Adrian, MI area, drop me a line and I can let you know how to get here. The show is at 7PM and is open to the public. It is also free!
04:46 PM in college

Sounds cool. Will you post pictures of the event?

If they go bang they are explosions by definition. The question is whether they are detonations (hopefully not) or deflagrations (like what would happen if you mixed ethanol and nitric acid in a sealed container in a microwave oven).
