like mixing household chemicals together to get a cool reaction to help my brother for the science fair? please don't say baking soda and vinegar half the school is doing that for a volcano.
symbolipoint said:Dyes.
cragar said:you could make a termite , aluminum powder and rust powder lit with a magnesium wick that was lit with a torch , you can get a magnesium cube at Wal-Mart in the outdoors section its used for starting fires. mix bleach and H202
might do the termite one outside it can burn through plate steel
go to home depot and get denatured alcohol , which is ethanol with usually a little methanol so people don’t drink it , pour about 2 ounces into a milk jug cap it and slowly swish it around and let it vaporize set it on the ground and take the cap off and light it with a candle on a stick and it will shoot it like a rocket across the ground . do this on concrete.

There are several safe chemical reactions that you can do at home, such as the baking soda and vinegar reaction, the lemon juice and baking soda reaction, and the milk and dish soap reaction. These reactions produce fun and visually appealing results without the use of harmful chemicals.
Yes, there are many chemical reactions that you can do with household items. Some examples include mixing bleach and vinegar to create a cleaning solution, combining baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to make a homemade toothpaste, and mixing salt and vinegar to create a rust-removing solution.
To make a chemical reaction more exciting, you can try adding food coloring to see a change in color, using different temperatures of water or other liquids, or experimenting with different ratios of ingredients to see varying results. You can also try creating a volcano eruption by mixing baking soda and vinegar in a bottle or container.
Yes, there are chemical reactions that produce heat or a flame, but these should only be done under adult supervision and with proper safety precautions. Some examples include the reaction between potassium chlorate and sugar, which produces a flame, and the reaction between calcium carbide and water, which produces heat and flammable gases.
No, it is not safe to mix different chemicals together for a reaction unless you are knowledgeable about their properties and potential hazards. Mixing certain chemicals can result in dangerous reactions, so it is important to always follow proper safety precautions and guidelines when conducting experiments at home.
