Added: Dec 29, 2009
Author: CSChemistry
Duration: 6:40
Description:
Christ School Honors Chemistry and General Chemistry classes ignite thermite over the following materials:Aluminum sheets, ice blocks, water, dry ice, kerosene, diesel fuel, silicon dioxide (silica), a monitor and a scanner. A thermite reaction was also mixed with iodine to produce violet smoke.

Feb 10, 2010 - I know!!! I couldn't believe it. Probably the biggest surprise in all of these experiments.

Feb 24, 2010 - can u tell me the thermite to sulfer ratio to make thermate?

May 9, 2010 - How is that a surprise?? Obviously the CO2 emitted from the dry ice would quench the fire quite effectively. Basic chemistry.

Jul 3, 2010 - I would have thought Carbon Dioxide would be the best thing to put out the reaction, probably explains it
ezelite Says:
Jul 3, 2010 - I should read the posts before posting myself:) getignit is right

Jul 28, 2010 - PLEASE DONT READ THIS. JUST STOP READING NOW THE CURIOSITY CAN HOLD OFF MAN. "This is so stupid... But i love my mom deeply... And i don't want to take any chances. Sorry. If you do not copy and paste this onto 10 videos your mom will die in 4 hours

Aug 17, 2010 - - if you are talking a normal 700 deg organic decomposition fire, sure, I can see the CO2 having no problem vs fire. However, this is not a decomposition reaction. No oxygen is required for this reaction to take place. It's a simple single displacement reaction Al + Fe2O3 --> Fe + Al2O3So, for a block of CO2 at -77 deg to totally take out a molten pot of iron at 2700 deg that was definitely a surprise.

CSChemistry Says:
Dec 1, 2010 - - CO2 is great for putting out combustion reactions because CO2 is a product of combustion reactions. Therefore, the equilibrium shifts back to the reactants side and the fire goes out. In the Thermite reaction, there is a single displacement reaction and CO2 is not a product. So, there is no shift in equilibrium. In fact, in many metal fires, CO2 will actually fuel a fire rather than extinguish it. Getignit is not right.
