Kitchen Explosives

This really works! Make explosives from kitchen chemicals.
All you need is;
One 9 volt battery.
250mL / 1 cup of water.
90g / 3 tablespoons of salt.
Sugar.
That's it!

!!!DO THIS OUTSIDE!!!
Something may go wrong and cause a fire, explosion, release of toxic chemicals or worse!

Start by collecting all the materials.
Put the water on heat and bring it to a boil.
When the water is boiling, drop in the salt and battery.
Let it cook for a while.
After a few minutes, remove the battery and continue to boil.
Cook off most of the water. Small white crystals will form in the liquid.
Filter out the crystals and let them dry.
Mix these with an equal amount of sugar.
Add fire and be amazed at the results!

What's happening is this:
The salt and water create a super saturated solution of Na+ and Cl- ions from the salt and H+ and OH- from the water. This mixture conducts electricity extremely well. When the battery is added it starts giving off its electrons and allows the ions to bond back together as sodium chlorate and hydrogen.
The reaction makes NaClO3 like this;
Na+Cl- (salt) + 3 H+OH- (water) → Na+ClO3- (sodium chlorate) + 3 H2 (hydrogen gas)
The hydrogen gas bubbles away harmlessly and the NaClO3 stays in the water. Cooking off the water concentrates the solution until the chlorate can no longer stay dissolved and begins to crystalize.

Sodium chlorate is a powerful oxidizer. Adding a fuel, like sugar, makes a very energetic mixture that burns with a hot flame and lots of smoke. It's a common ingredient in many fireworks and explosives.

@PrismaCry look ass whipe, not all pyro's are terroist nut jobs, im tired of people like you bashing others for their interest in chemistry and reactive substances, while people like you get a hard on every time you get a grenade kill in call of duty (atleast our might is aimed at making holes in the ground and getting rid of tree stumps instead of destroying anything that even remotely looks human)

This is fake - You can see the violet potassium flame, while soidum has orange flame. :P

salt and sugar burn, batt does nothing

@princeaizen same happened to me id if i were u id get an ac adaptor and stainless steel electrodes or graphite electrodes my electrolysis is going great takes like a few days though until you actually get crystals

[diegonikki]

@Nukedeuce dude it is it takes like 2 days for a 9v battery to make sodium chlorate even with boiling water + i use an ac adaptor and use graphite electrodes they heat up then the heat makes chlorate it takes about 1 or 2 days till i make a few grams of it so how can a battery even in boiling water possibly create sodium chlorate in a few mins i tried it its really contaminated and fail

fuck you

@Tuttomenui ... Every plolitically hot eera has its own "terror slang". Like "saboteur", in the USSR, or "communist" in mac arty-age usa. Nine-eleven was the trigger for the term "terrorism" Even bankrobbers have been named that !

Take a scary event, Connect it to a kindda-loaded name, and tara... EVERY moron, (Yes, You Tutto ass!) will use it, for crap HE Personally don't like, to get support from the sheep,, for they just see& hear the "scary" word... Run for congres, Boy !

This is a deflagarant not an explosive.

retard

kitchen explosives tutorial:

1. turn gas on sttove to high (without lighting the flame)

2.light a match.

3. ur dead because the gas made everything explode.

[lyrison]

Aren't explosives supposed to explode?

[TheRolemodel1337]

@Tuttomenui there are storys about injured soldiers

is telling them to somebody also terrorism?

because they might shoot themself because they wanna know if they can survive aswell

your such an idiot

[marcuspinson]

@Tuttomenui how retarded are you? terrorism? really? the point of terrorism is to create TERROR and nobody is terrified of this video or whats in it.

and he didnt boil the battery the submerged it in a solution of water and sodium cloride (table salt) when you apply a direct current to the solution, sodium chlorate (a powerful oxidizer) percipitates out

when you mix this oxidizer with a source of carbon like sugar (C6H12O6) you get a reactive mixture
