  • we just did this in my chemistry class today, it was really loud

  • i did this with coke bottle and lid with hole drilled in it .( i was trying to make a rocket) and it exploded every time.XD

  • is it safe to put salt in? you know, so the flame has color?

  • @swainBAND22 it was safe to drink before… I'm sure they just used vodka or something…

  • OH FOR HEAVEN SAKE.

  • is the water safe to drink after

  • @Aunjel22 This is related to what we use in our cars. The flammable liquid used here is likely something like ethanol. It, like gasoline, is composed of carbon and hydrogen - it'd a hydrocarbon. Oxygen reacts with it creating the by-products carbon dioxide and water. Under certain conditions, such as high temperature, high pressure, or poor air or oxygen supply, other by-products will result such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide.

  • @regularguy97 Not necessarily. Think about like lifting a weight that weighs 14.7lbs with your pinky.

  • can you drink that water?

  • @Aunjel22 Money
