An exothermic torch works by feeding oxygen through an exothermic carbon steel cutting rod that is charged by the 12-volt battery.Slideshow Images: "Central dispatch to Battalion 8, we are getting ...

In a combustion reaction, fuel is burned and reacts with oxygen to release energy. Respiration is the chemical change that takes place inside living cells. Glucose and oxygen are used to release ...

Uniqsis has launched ColdChip™ - a new versatile mixer/reactor module enabling researchers to experiment with different chemistries particularly exothermic reactions that need to be safely run in a ...

The search for non-chemical methods to control soil-borne pathogens has recently intensified considering the coming phase-out of methyl bromide in 2005, and none of the alternatives to methyl bromide ...

Commercial heat packs (containing iron and water, or supersaturated sodium acetate) and cold packs (various ammonium salts) can be used to show exo- and endothermicity. Heat packs that contain iron ...

A complete exothermic reaction demonstration with a chemical explanation. Using potassium permanganate and glycerol, Professor Mike Canestro will be performing a complete exothermic reaction ...

Iron oxide, aluminum, and a catalyst are placed in a flowerpot. The reaction is extremely exothermic resulting in molten iron and aluminum dripping into sand below the flowerpot. The demonstration ...
