I did this every year, kept the reaction in the hood, used just a small scoop
of pot. chlorate in a test tube attached to the ring stand. When it melted, I
turned off the bunsen burner, added the gummi bear and voila, it is a great
white light! I also tried it with peeps, an even better reaction, because there
is more sugar. I wear goggles and don't let the students get closer than about
3-4 feet from the hood. It is a great example of a decomposition and combustion
two step reaction. Tina

Hello. I am contemplating doing a demo with gummi bear and potassium
chlorate; however, I am a bit chicken. Could you give me any info on this?
Has any one done this?
Thanks,
Nancy Ward

I apologize for this listing: I usually read the notices I read with a more
critical eye before sending them to the list-serve. I guess the holiday season
highs made me miss this. The response I got indicates how shop you guys are.
Sorry, and Happy New Year.
Ken
