Ohh be so careful,
My teachers did this two weeks ago to demonstrate to yr12 chem, anyway we kept it in the fume cupboard for two days,
crackled and popped for a day and a half, was pretty watching little explosions in the glass measuring cylinder.
Anyway after two days they said all reaction had finished and trish can clean up.
Well consulted Csis package and all those chemicals can be safely tipped down sink with irrigation. Was concerned about them mixed together, anyway, started the process and as soon as it touched water I had a ball of flames come up and singe the hairs of my arm above the gloves.
Soooo cranky that the teachers didn't explain anything to me.
If it is the same prac, be careful cleaning up.....
I told them that they are not to do it again without the HOD signing off on it first as I don't think the risks were really consulted, and I had a feeling that it may be close to being a banned experiment.Don't know.
Most of the time I don't get consulted on experiments,Kept in the dark, so was a little upset when safety of all(me included) wasn't prioritised.
Trish.
