PS: WHAT THE FACK WAS THAT!? (epic)
-
because i couldn't tell the difference between aluminium and bromine.
-
@GerryRich100 Aluminium (+13) brom (+35) if u know how to make atoms then u see why
-
Br3? now where are you getting that?
-
@GerryRich100 Al + Br3 ---> AlBr3
-
2Al + 3Br2 > 2 ALBr3

@pattybridge1 A teacher should be sufficient to explain: attach a clamp capable of stably holding a test tube to a ring stand. Put a test tube in that clamp, pour the bromine into the test tube, and then carefully lower your rolled aluminum foil into the test tube. As always, wear proper safety equipment: gloves, an apron, and goggles; and do this under a fume hood!
As an added bonus, get the class to use stoichiometry to calculate how much bromine is needed! Yay, science.

Too much for a primary classroom. Needs audio to explain the procedure.

Aluminum bromide smoke. Don't breathe this!

Thumbs up if you stumbled upon this doing a science project on either aluminum or Bromine.
