"Volcano" Experiment with Ammonium dichromate

It is a decompostion reaction, of Ammonium dichromate, this reaction produce steam, Nitrogen gas and Chromium(III) oxide. The decomposition produce large amount of solid, which seems to be a Volcano eruption, hence this is called "Volcano" Experiment.

The color of the dichromate is the best!

Nice experiment, i've never seen it in realtime..

But, ammonium dichromate is well known to couse forms of cancer, look out for that!! The formed chromic oxides are two.

Great video 5/5 ! Very cool to see a match start the reaction rather than using a torch or Mg ribbon.
