STUDIES of self-sustained reaction by the temperature profile method 1 have recently been extended to compressed mixtures of molybdenum and potassium permanganate and have shown that reaction occurs ...

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

This article describes research to quantify the kinetics of Mn(II) and Fe(II) oxidation by potassium permanganate and chlorine dioxide; illustrates the effects of reduced metal ion concentration, pH, ...

The intense colors shown in this photo are formed by the exothermic oxidation of ethanol with potassium permanganate in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid. Murilo Sérgio da Silva Julião is a ...

I recently saw the commercial for the new Survivor Man episodes where Wes takes glycerin and pours a couple drops on potassium permanganate to start a fire.<br><br>I ...

Addition of a liquid to a crystalline substance produces smoke an intense violet flames. Set up a heat resistant mat next to an operating vent in the bench top. Add 10 to 15 drops of glycerol to the ...

Water turned pink in a small Canadian town this week after a faulty valve allowed the disinfectant potassium permanganate to seep into the water supply. The color looks alarming, but the chemical ...

The film explores the concept of solutions in chemistry, defining key terms such as solute and solvent. It illustrates how solute particles dissolve and disperse uniformly in a solvent, highlighting ...
