Project Inspired By:
Wondering what would happen if the vapor was inhaled. This was an original idea.
WARNING: Dry Ice is extremely cold! (-78C/-109F) and can cause instant frost-bite to exposed skin. This project is for demonstrational purposes only and should only be attempted by experienced science demonstrators. Misuse, or careless use of dry ice may result in serious injury. Use of this video content is at your own risk.
Project History & More Info:
This experiment demonstrates the visible effect of differential pressure created when you suck in.
The vapor you see is actually condensed water droplets (cloud) but it’s also mixed with carbon dioxide gas, oxygen and nitrogen.
The vapor is relatively safe to inhale, since carbon dioxide is naturally present in the lungs anyway, but repeated and excessive amount of vapor inhalation will lead to coughing, and short spells of dizziness.
This is a trick I do at parties and get togethers from time to time because it looks so bizarre. I thought might be appropriate to show off for halloween 🙂
This video will be part of a compilation of dry ice experiments that will explain in more detail what is happening here, so watch for that!

Now approaching its 6th model year, the 2014 Audi A4 still offers luxury buyers an enticing blend of technology, luxury, and sportiness. But with some many fresh choices in an ever crowded market, has Audi made enough updates to keep this model high on your shopping list?
A strip of magnesium ribbon burns in a block of dry ice, and it lights up the night.
The ash contains elemental carbon (C), and the grill is just to keep things random.

WARNING: Dry Ice is extremely cold! (-78C/-109F) and can cause instant frost-bite to exposed skin. Magnesium burns extremely hot (2200 °C/4000 °F) and can cause severe burns and damage to skin or property. This project is for demonstrational purposes only and should only be attempted by experienced science demonstrators. Misuse, or careless use may result in serious injury. Use of this video content is at your own risk.
Project History & More Info:
This experiment demonstrates the reactivity of magnesium stealing oxygen, from a block of solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) and leaving behind black elemental carbon, and white magnesium oxide.
The grill doesn’t really serve any purpose in the reaction, except a subtle correlation to the elemental carbon that’s left as a by-product of the reaction. Grilling charcoal is basically just elemental carbon as well, so there’s a cool correlation there. When it really comes down to it, the grill was just a random, spontaneous urge to mix things up 🙂
I mostly wanted to try this experiment because of the sizzle, sparks and bright light. I love the mad science aspect to the reaction. The chemical equation and how everything balances out is nice to know, but not really what gets me excited.
I tried this experiment at night so that the brightness could be demonstrated. You can see that even though the table is set up in the middle of our yard, when the reaction occurs, it briefly lights up everything to the point where you can see objects in the background.
I got my strip of magnesium from eBay, and was surprised at how cheap it really is. The dry ice of course was purchased at a local grocery store, and this was an 8lb block cut into 2 pieces, and a hole drilled out in one piece using a Forstner bit.
This video will be part of a compilation of dry ice experiments that will explain in more detail what is happening here, so watch for that!

This video was not directly sponsored by Vat19, but I like their stuff, so am giving them some free promotion. 🙂

Extra info:
I’m always interested in ways to give back where I can, and for over a year I’ve wanted to have some fun giving away random prizes. Finally I’m in a position where I think we can make this happen!
My goal is to be able to do this once a week, or perhaps even more.
These videos are made to be supplemental, and shouldn’t take away from regular project videos or quick clips. Instead, they are bonus videos simply made to recognize and give back to you, my loyal supporters.
I ordered a bunch of toys from Vat19, so for the first bunch of MindBender episodes, you’ll probably notice the prizes are all from the same place.
Thanks much for being a random citizen. And whether or not you win anything, please know I appreciate having you on board, and am excited to see what crazy cool things we can do together in the future.
Previous version of the video contained a critical factual error. This has now been fixed and reuploaded.

Real Danger Warning: This video is for demonstrational purposes only, and should not be replicated.
Liquid Carbon Dioxide cannot exist on earth, unless it’s put under pressure.
When Dry Ice is put under pressure about 5 times that of earth’s atmosphere, CO2 is able to liquify. But release the pressure, and the liquid disappears!

CSChemistry video, “Formation of Liquid Carbon Dioxide” http://bit.ly/IBLiquidCO2 If you check it out, tell them that Grant Thompson sent you.
WARNING: This project should not be replicated. Dry Ice should never be placed in a sealed container because of the explosion hazard it poses, which may have legal ramifications. Dry Ice is extremely cold! (-78C/-109F) and can cause instant frost-bite to exposed skin. Read all warning labels and be aware of all risks. Misuse, or careless use, may result in serious injury. Use of this video content is at your own risk.
Project History & More Info:
Before attempting this demonstration, I studied phase diagrams and became familiar with the types of pressures CO2 would generate at different temperatures. In some cases, they can be well over 1,000 PSI! I consulted with Ben Krasnow about possible risks, and preformed the demonstration in a controlled environment with safety precautions in place, and stood in a protective building. The only risk of damage was to my camera, which I left as close as comfortable to the demonstration.
I’ve seen demonstrations where Ben Krasnow of “Applied Science” took CO2 supercritical in a special container he made; http://bit.ly/IBSupercriticalCO2, but when I saw a demonstration where a class used a soda bottle preform, I wondered if that could really work, or if it would eventually explode as well.
This experiment was to test the viability of demonstrating liquid CO2 in a soda preform, which as you can see, works for a time, but eventually will explode.
I try to stay away from saying things like, “Don’t try this at home”, but for this experiment I’m afraid I have to. Mainly because this experiment probably isn’t legal for you to replicate at home. Along with that, if a container were to accidentally pressurize and explode in your hand, who knows what kind of damage that could do to you. ..or the person standing next to you.
Liquid carbon dioxide is not something we get to see. It exists in containers like CO2 fire extinguishers, but the pressures are so intense they require thick steel to hold them in.
So even though I strongly advise you don’t replicate this experiment, if you do it anyway, please be aware there is a likely risk of your container exploding.
