The bottle is safe. It contains mineral oil to prevent the sodium from reacting. Even if a drop of molten sodium went inside, it would not be able to react with the mineral oil to sustain itself.
Geez, I do the sodium/water experiment a lot for the kids at my school, and I never EVER put in such a large lump like that, and definitely not in a fume cupboard. Take it outside and have everyone stand back with safety glasses on, and put a piece in that's the size of half a 5 cent piece. Also, if you add Phenolpthalein Indicator to the water beforehand, it will turn pink when NaOH is formed which is a good way to show the kids what has happened.
we did this in school and we put a chunk that was much smaller and it was in some kind of hood thing i frgt what it was called. Then my teacher but the Phenolpthalein indicator in after to show us the NaOH. it turned a really pretty pink.
Wow. That was ignorant and dangerous, and people like that are who cause accidents and injuries in laboratories. Please learn your shit if you're going to work in a lab.
Joder, vaya lerda la profesora... cuando hicimos esa práctica utilizamos como la vigésima parte del piedrolo ese... y ya salía alguna chispilla, así que...

Jeez. What a bunch of screaming idiots!! The video would be cool WITHOUT the sound. Next time, give us a warning that screaming morons might stop a person from enjoying the video.
Agreed 100%! Aww what silly noise . . . QUIT that deafening shriek please! IN my high-school days I've been dumping lumps of raw sodium and potassium into HYDROCHLORIC ACID and watched some of the most spectacular firework displays in awe but also in complete SILENCE.
Jajajaja Somehow I think the 'teacher' didn't expected an explosion that big; that was a seriously big piece of sodium. And leaving the sodium bottle there, open? priceless, hahah, Chemistry is great.
They obviously didnt know what they were doing, or were very neglectful :( you DONT leave a spare supply of sodium sitting RIGHT NEXT to your test area. These people could have been injured or killed >.>
stop screaming you noisy bitch
