Chemical Reactions

In chemistry we have been looking at chemical reactions.  
This first video shows what happens when you react magnesium with oxygen in a bunsen burner flame.



We also reacted calcium with water and collected the gas in a test tube.  We then carried out the "pop" test to prove that the gas was hydrogen.




*outtake* One that didn't go to plan!

Ye way to go - how I love science experiments! You all look very professional scientists - I'd give you a job in the lab any day.
