create a nice rainbow effect using

create a nice rainbow effect using different types of chemicals mixed in

different types of chemicals mixed in

different types of chemicals mixed in with our flames we’ve got a couple

with our flames we’ve got a couple

with our flames we’ve got a couple different sources of fuel and a whole

different sources of fuel and a whole

different sources of fuel and a whole lot of different chemicals that we can

lot of different chemicals that we can

lot of different chemicals that we can try mixing into our flames let’s see

try mixing into our flames let’s see

try mixing into our flames let’s see which ones give us the best result we

which ones give us the best result we

which ones give us the best result we have two different versions of this heat

and we’ll see what color each of these

and we’ll see what color each of these burns on its own and what we want to try

burns on its own and what we want to try

burns on its own and what we want to try and use as our fuel source these little

light candles that I popped the candle out of

well we have a very bright yellowish

well we have a very bright yellowish orange color we have a slightly more

orange color we have a slightly more

orange color we have a slightly more subdued yellowish orange color a very

subdued yellowish orange color a very

subdued yellowish orange color a very pale yellow orange color and one that in

pale yellow orange color and one that in

pale yellow orange color and one that in this amount of light you can barely see

this amount of light you can barely see

this amount of light you can barely see but it mostly looks blue it’s almost

but it mostly looks blue it’s almost

but it mostly looks blue it’s almost invisible

let’s try turning off the lights and see

let’s try turning off the lights and see how things look our blue flame is a

pretty clear there’s not a lot showing up in there but it’s not bad I think

up in there but it’s not bad I think

up in there but it’s not bad I think that the yellow heat gave us the best

that the yellow heat gave us the best

that the yellow heat gave us the best result for something that we’ll be able

result for something that we’ll be able to use to change the color because it

to use to change the color because it

to use to change the color because it had very little bright color of its own

had very little bright color of its own

had very little bright color of its own so let’s run our chemical experiments

so let’s run our chemical experiments

so let’s run our chemical experiments using this let’s try going in order the

using this let’s try going in order the

using this let’s try going in order the first color we want to try and get is a

first color we want to try and get is a

first color we want to try and get is a nice red I’ve heard that the best thing

nice red I’ve heard that the best thing

nice red I’ve heard that the best thing for that is to get some lithium out of a

for that is to get some lithium out of a

for that is to get some lithium out of a lithium battery and then dissolve that

lithium battery and then dissolve that

lithium battery and then dissolve that in this liquid the lithium in our

in this liquid the lithium in our

in this liquid the lithium in our battery should create a compound which

battery should create a compound which

battery should create a compound which will burn with a very bright red almost

will burn with a very bright red almost

will burn with a very bright red almost magenta color ooh

magenta color ooh

magenta color ooh it certainly reacts quickly that seems

it certainly reacts quickly that seems

it certainly reacts quickly that seems mostly reacted let’s see what happens if

mostly reacted let’s see what happens if

mostly reacted let’s see what happens if we ignite this will we get a red flame

we ignite this will we get a red flame

we ignite this will we get a red flame like we are theoretically supposed to

like we are theoretically supposed to

like we are theoretically supposed to whoa yeah we do

whoa yeah we do

whoa yeah we do pretty good red right there like that is

pretty good red right there like that is

pretty good red right there like that is on red

on red

on red almost almost magenta colored flame I am

almost almost magenta colored flame I am

almost almost magenta colored flame I am liking that cool cool cool we’ve got red

liking that cool cool cool we’ve got red

liking that cool cool cool we’ve got red put that out set that aside and let’s

put that out set that aside and let’s

put that out set that aside and let’s see if we can get an orange now for

orange my research has said that calcium chloride can give you a good orange

chloride can give you a good orange

chloride can give you a good orange colored flame and an easy source of

colored flame and an easy source of

calcium chloride is some types of

calcium chloride is some types of sidewalk salt that’s meant for melting

sidewalk salt that’s meant for melting

sidewalk salt that’s meant for melting ice and snow and the stuff that I got is

ice and snow and the stuff that I got is

ice and snow and the stuff that I got is shaped into these little prills these

shaped into these little prills these

shaped into these little prills these small little beads I’m not sure if it

small little beads I’m not sure if it

small little beads I’m not sure if it being in the bead form is better or the

being in the bead form is better or the

being in the bead form is better or the powdered form is better so we’ll try

powdered form is better so we’ll try

powdered form is better so we’ll try grinding it up into a powder and then

grinding it up into a powder and then

grinding it up into a powder and then we’ll see if that gives us a better or

we’ll see if that gives us a better or

we’ll see if that gives us a better or worse effect than the little beads

worse effect than the little beads

worse effect than the little beads all right we’ll do a side-by-side

all right we’ll do a side-by-side

all right we’ll do a side-by-side comparison glad a little bit more of

and also add some into the powder have turned orange much faster although this

turned orange much faster although this

turned orange much faster although this is a pretty good orange color as well I

is a pretty good orange color as well I

is a pretty good orange color as well I don’t know I think we’re kind of getting

don’t know I think we’re kind of getting

don’t know I think we’re kind of getting more off of the powder

more off of the powder

more off of the powder Hank either one works really you just

Hank either one works really you just

Hank either one works really you just need enough of the fuel to kind of cover

need enough of the fuel to kind of cover

need enough of the fuel to kind of cover the frills or the powder and then you

the frills or the powder and then you

the frills or the powder and then you get a good orange color my research says

get a good orange color my research says

get a good orange color my research says that the best way to get a yellow flame

that the best way to get a yellow flame

that the best way to get a yellow flame is by burning something with sodium in

is by burning something with sodium in

is by burning something with sodium in it baking soda or sodium bicarbonate or

it baking soda or sodium bicarbonate or

it baking soda or sodium bicarbonate or sodium chloride table salt we’re gonna

sodium chloride table salt we’re gonna

sodium chloride table salt we’re gonna try both of these in the methanol and

try both of these in the methanol and

try both of these in the methanol and we’re gonna compare that to the bright

we’re gonna compare that to the bright

we’re gonna compare that to the bright yellow we are getting as we burn the red

yellow we are getting as we burn the red

yellow we are getting as we burn the red heat we’ll see which one gives us the

heat we’ll see which one gives us the

heat we’ll see which one gives us the best yellow color here goes looking for

best yellow color here goes looking for

best yellow color here goes looking for yellow flame the red heat immediately

yellow flame the red heat immediately

yellow flame the red heat immediately gives us yellow flame our table salt or

gives us yellow flame our table salt or

gives us yellow flame our table salt or I guess this is sea salt but it’s the

I guess this is sea salt but it’s the

I guess this is sea salt but it’s the same stuff just in a slightly different

same stuff just in a slightly different

same stuff just in a slightly different shape that’s a kind of yellow flame a

shape that’s a kind of yellow flame a

shape that’s a kind of yellow flame a little bit more orange than this our

little bit more orange than this our

little bit more orange than this our baking soda is taking longer to get

baking soda is taking longer to get

baking soda is taking longer to get going but we’re now starting to get a

going but we’re now starting to get a

going but we’re now starting to get a visible flame on that again that’s kind

visible flame on that again that’s kind

visible flame on that again that’s kind of orange in my opinion there’s a pretty

of orange in my opinion there’s a pretty

of orange in my opinion there’s a pretty clear winner here the two different

clear winner here the two different

clear winner here the two different versions of the sodium are giving us a

versions of the sodium are giving us a

versions of the sodium are giving us a yellowish flame and that’s pretty good

yellowish flame and that’s pretty good

yellowish flame and that’s pretty good and in fact I actually kind of like the

and in fact I actually kind of like the

and in fact I actually kind of like the color of the baking sort of the best but

color of the baking sort of the best but

color of the baking sort of the best but there’s just so much good yellow coming

there’s just so much good yellow coming

there’s just so much good yellow coming off of the red heat fuel I think we

off of the red heat fuel I think we

off of the red heat fuel I think we might have to go with that one moving on

and then I think I’ll try using some of

and then I think I’ll try using some of the alcohol as a yellow fuel and see if

the alcohol as a yellow fuel and see if

the alcohol as a yellow fuel and see if we can get red green and yellow all

we can get red green and yellow all

we can get red green and yellow all burning together for the spin

it’s one heck of a thing all right let’s

it’s one heck of a thing all right let’s put this out we’ve made a multi-coloured

put this out we’ve made a multi-coloured

put this out we’ve made a multi-coloured fire vortex we’ve made several different
