I do not speak English but would like to know how to do this reaction with water because I have not seen anything compared (I used a translator to this comment)

yo no se hablar ingles pero quisiera saber como hacen esa reaccion con el agua por que no he visto nada comparado (yo he utilizado un traductor para este comentario )

@dij2084 Water (H2O) isn't being used. It's liquid nitrogen (N2).

@TraffleKing I'm assuming that you've never actually used liquid nitrogen before. If you had, you'd know that when liquid nitrogen (which boils at 77 K) comes into contact with a carpeted floor (that's near 300 K), the nitrogen rapidly boils away, changing to a gas that then mixes with the air (which is 78% nitrogen to begin with). So, as long as the room is large enough, it is a SMART idea.

@Atrixeagle1 Liquid nitrogen boils at 77 K and the carpeted floor is nearly 300 K so, after a second or two, no one will notice.

@TheTraveler12 It would have to be someplace where the laws of thermodynamics and quantum mechanics don't apply.

@beriguise Correct. It is not possible to reach absolute zero.

[beriguise]

@JeffersonLab isnt absolute zero impossible to reach that coldness?
