Re: zinc sulfur experiment
Sorry, I would have to ask for more info as it doesn't really ring any bells for me. The teacher concerned should know what he/she needs?!
Re: zinc sulfur experiment
I can't think of what it would be either. Ask them to show you the prac if it's in a book or online.
Re: zinc sulfur experiment
I just googled out of curiosity there is one using zinc powder, when you look up in CSIS manual.
Zinc dust is TCH only (fine powder ignites on heating and forms explosive mixtures with sulfur, bromine and iodine)
Zinc Metal, Granular, foil is K-12
it really depends on what he's doing

Hmmmmmmm
Sounds like building explosives by stealth. A definite NO seems in order.
