We had a day in the science lab!
Our volcanos from yesterday did not get their full glory.
Unfortunately, our active elements were unstable (KMnO4/expired). We chose to simulate early earth, chemical reaction, and matter behavior through other compounds.
You cannot promise the, “flash bomb” effects of glycerin poured on KMn04 and and not deliver something relevantly similar.
(Beaker experiment):
Here we have a thermodynamic compounds and kinetic energy.
Ki + H2O2 + O2
*stable to boiling in seconds from electron transfer.
Volcanic birthday cake… (aka sparklers and oxidation)
2 KNO3 > 2 KNO2 + O2(gas)
Once oxidation begins, aluminum, iron, steel, zinc or magnesium dust creates the bright, shimmering sparks. The metal flakes heat up until they are incandescent and shine brightly or, actually burn.
Thank you to Brian and Terri Kinder for putting on an amazing concert for MZ Elementary! The kids and teachers both had a blast!
PS students were learning about the interaction between force and mass, so they started to work on building bridges. Here's a photo of the Truss bridge Andrew and Mason built!
