  • You shouldn't call this demo more than it is, It's just the combustion of isopropyl alcohol in a bottle.

  • @yellowmetalcyborg This was a project to be presented to 2nd graders. Hence the name and simplicity.

  • @yellowmetalcyborg it's more likely ethanol (ethyl alcohol) that is combusting. Isopropyl is not that combustive.

  • @robhoyle Isopropyl is every bit as combustible as ethanol. Its autoignition temperature is a little lower, but for most purposes, both alcohols are equally combustible.

  • @yellowmetalcyborg are you a teacher by any chance?

  • @TheTdwpforever Naa, I'm a student, nice try though :)

  • @yellowmetalcyborg what do you mean nice try? how do you know so much about chemistry? i'm in my first year biotechnology and i didn't know about any of that stuff so i'm just wondering how behind i am. haha

  • @TheTdwpforever I don't know that much actually, I'm still just a high school student. However, I am a member of one of the best chemistry forums on the interwebs, Science Madness.

    Feel free to join! I much prefer Science Madness compared to youtube. So if you thought that youtube has some smart people, Nurd Rage, hkparker (and the like) are just the tip of the iceberg.
