@MrMiko93 He use 2x the mass of mercury I think ? But it's not really a problem. You can see, the réaction not make all the Nitric acide to Fulminate mercury (after the end, when he add the Ethanol)

@Speednugget2000 THIS. IS. SCIENCE.

@Cockroachkz Thanks for your reply. You seem to be the first person I met that can give any idea about that smoke. Big thanks!
-
@Sllipp I think it's mainly acetaldehyde (C2H4O), and is quite explosive.

@NarlepoaxIII everything makes chemistry fun :D

Hey, if anyone knows what is the white smoke, please contact me.
It's not any of mercury's oxides (yellow or orange) or nitric oxides either... could it be CO2 that condensates?
This, is not meth.
