Put it in the bottle with some hot water and wait for it to explode? Generally not a good idea unless you're really careful.

The bottle doesent explode right away, it takes 5 minutes, i think, its been a while since Ive done it. Just get like 30 feet away from it. It is really loud though.

demostrate how magnesium burns with anything that has oxygen in it.
That was my junior college chemisty demo for two years. We had a road show to the elementary and junior high schools, it was great fun!
:D:p

OK, we used 3 20oz bottles and the first time, my friend went to check if he screwed the cap on (mistake. . ;)) It blew up right when he was <10 feet away. Second time, we did two at a time. This time, we ran away so that our ears wouldn't bleed. We get in the house and hear POP! . A minute later, the other one blows up :) This was all in a mormon church parking lot right in front of my friends house...Mmmmm sacriligious...


Oh, and the cops came about 30 mins later, circling the parking lot :)

Scary, but fun nonetheless.

freeze two cans of shaving cream, open the can and dump the contents into a car. foam will fill up entire car, once it's heated back to normal temperature.
