Do you like experiments? Ever dreamed of being a test chemist? Strive to decorate your home with unusual decor that no one else has? Then create a glowing liquid that can be poured into a glass jar and placed in the most prominent place.
It is necessary
- - luminol 2-3 g;
- - hydrogen peroxide 3% 80 ml;
- - copper sulfate 3 g;
- - sodium hydroxide solution 10 ml;
- - fluorescent dyes;
- - test tubes;
- - water 100 ml.
Instructions
Step 1
Your first step is to run through pharmacies, special bases and shops of young chemists who can distribute the necessary substances. Luminol is the main substance that glows in its compounds. Its price is quite high. Look at the chemical stores in your city, you will surely find it there. Copper sulfate and sodium hydroxide can also be purchased there.
Step 2
Before work, be sure to pull your hair into a ponytail and wear gloves.
You and I have already understood that luminol is something without which the experiment cannot be carried out. It needs to be dissolved in water. It is advisable to perform all these actions in the flask, if there is no flask, then use the jar (after the experiment it will become unsuitable for workpieces, so feel free to throw it away).
Step 3
Add hydrogen peroxide to luminol mixed with water.
Step 4
Add copper sulfate (or ferric chloride) and sodium. Instead of copper sulfate, you can use blood from a chicken leg diluted in water (1 spoon).
Step 5
Gently pour the liquid into a neat vessel (jar), where it will be, and close it tightly with a lid.
Step 6
Now turn off the lights and admire the beauty you get. Initially, you will get a blue glow, but you can use dyes and change it to any other color.
