Dear, highly esteemed Professor Bishop. I have watched your broadcasts with great interest. I have seen your broadcasts on KZbin and find them very instructive and very friendly, especially for the young viewers who participate in them. It is so understanding and kind how you try to introduce children to chemistry. When I was a child, we lived in Munich. I liked to go to the Deutsches Museum with great enthusiasm and specifically visit the physics and chemistry departments. I was fascinated by the many great experiments, which have also shaped me for life. I wish we had more such broadcasts in Germany like yours. There used to be more of such broadcasts. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you very warmly and am glad that I had the chance to watch these broadcasts. Many heartfelt thanks. Dr. Malik Englmaier (Radiologist)

I never knew light can be used to detonate stuff. Well, you learn something new every day.

[@TheWireEDM]

+Steve Johnson Which has nothing to do with light as being the initiator.

[@franzmeier4472]

I think that that experiment was a bit misleading actually, since it wasn't a demonstration of just "using enough energy" to go past the activation energy. If it's enough energy you need, why not simply increase the intensity of the red light? If you took a red light bulb with a high enough wattage (the brightness would increase, but the colour is the same) it should go off as well, shouldn't it? It's more energy after all. A concentrated beam of read light should do the trick as well (so just a red laser pointer for example). But it wouldn't. What's the deciding factor is the wavelenght. The shorter the wavelenght, the higher the energy of the photons. The higher the intensity of the light (bulb with higher wattage, or more concentrated beam of light), the higher the overall energy of the macroscopic beam. The detonation that's dependent on a short enough wavelenght and conversely photons with high enough energy, is an example of quantum physics. It doesn't matter how strong the intensity of the light is, the energy of the macroscopic beam. What matters is the the energy of the microscopic light particles, the photons.

[@dash8brj]

@@franzmeier4472 I wonder if a high powered red or green laser would set off the chlorine and hydrogen mixture - they used a slide projector. Lasers pack more photons into the same beam profile. I've used mine (stupidly) to set off flash powder at a reasonable distance from the laser.

[@DrCrispycross]

It’s all about the energy per photon. If you don’t have enough, then no number of lower-energy photons can produce the same effect. Unless, of course, you have such an intense beam that a given molecule in the target can get hit by two photons at precisely the same time so their energies can add together.. Some high-powered lasers can do that with very short pulses but your laser pointer almost certainly can’t. Sorry.

[@dale116dot7]

Light (and x-rays) is used to transfer energy from the primary fission weapon to the secondary fusion stage. That ends up being a very large explosion.

[@Jesse272m]

I experienced a physics lecture where there was some liquid nitrogen in an old school thermos bottle. One of the students absent mindlessly screwed the lid onto the thermos. The physics teacher saw this, went OMG and tried to unscrew the lid, which neatly unscrewed the mercury glass bottle from the metal base, but didn't budge the lid. He pelted to his tiny, crammed office next door to the classroom and left at speed, closing the door after him. Shortly there was a "poof" noise. The glass container and its mercury disintegrated into an incredibly fine dust over every surface of his office. It was a heck of a mess to clean up. Today it would have required hazmat suits, but back then we just used rubber gloves and shop towels.

[@warywolfen]

There is a "grey" area. Some "low" explosives have deflagration velocities that are similar to the detonation velocity of a high explosive. In the U.S, the BATFE classifies flash powder as a "high" explosive, regarding regulations for storage, because of its properties, even though it is technically a low explosive. Fuel/air explosives also act like high explosives, even though they are fuel/oxidizer mixtures.

[@bobfeeney9294]

Back in graduate school, I was part of a team of chemistry grad students giving presentations on "chemical magic", and we did the range of reactions from color changes to to combustion to synthesis to phase changes to explosive reactions. These were presented to college students in chemistry, engineering and physics classes, so we included a nice amount of very technical detail during the demos. Naturally, the explosive demos effectively reduced very intelligent science students to children in awe - these demos, when well done, are always fun to watch...

That was just great. A very well presented lecture using a well-chosen set of examples, e.g. not just "a series of things that went bang" but a lot of different *kinds* of bangs, each illustrating a slightly different set of physical principles and really getting the audience to think about the material. I know that I was left with a series of questions, such as "I've never even heard of Silane. Why *is* it pyrophoric, anyway?" so of course I had to go look that up and now I have even *more* questions, which of course is the goal of all good science, right? :) As a former (very young) chemistry student myself, I'd love it if we taught this kind of material in American schools again.

We were taught "question everything"... AND I still love it! Hope you're having fun questioning everything, too. ;o)

[@annemarietobias]

I worked in the semiconductor industry in the 80s, and Silane was used to deposit pure silicon on existing silicon substrate, and by introducing impurities you can make P or N type materials to create printed transistors on a silicon wafer. Silicon is very stable, and wants to just be silicon... making Silane extremely unstable, and the simple presence of oxygen is enough to cause combustion, and a smoke of fine sand will be produced by that reaction. An even more frightening compound is Arsane, where the central atom is Arsenic. The white smoke of that spontaneous combustion is every bit as lethal as it sounds. This is another dangerous gas that was used at the time in doping silicon for semiconductors. We had to helium vacuum check the plumbing used to carry dangerous gases including these and phosphine (a gas that is toxic at levels of 5-10 PPM.) Needless to say, gas leaks from these substances are to be avoided at all costs.

[@arthurhunt642]

Your experiences are interesting for sure. My knowledge of electronics only goes as far as reckoning speakers, silk screening and etching circuit boards, and vacuum tubes. So I'm hopelessly lost in the dark ages of the 1940' to 1960's.

My dad was a "Dynamite Doc" (JMC Thompson) working in R&D for ICI Nobel division in the 1950s, 60s and retired in 1972. I fondly remember helping him to make fireworks for bonfire night every November... The chemistry practical demonstrations at the local secondary school (Adrossan Academy) could be a challenge for the chemistry teachers of the top sets since more than half the class were the sons and daughters of high explosive chemists...

[@Alexegrus]

Amazing and so interesting... wish our teachers at the school were so creative to connect theories with practical experiments

[@warywolfen]

Here's a story that comes from "Hatcher's Notebook," by Maj. Gen. Julian Hatcher (he was head of the technical dept. of Springfield Arsenal). In the good ol' days, chemical plants used to dump their waste in local rivers. A plant that made NG did that with their spent nitrating acid. But the waste contained some NG in suspension. It separated out in the river and accumulated on the bottom. One day, a fisherman in a row boat struck the river bed with his steel oar--BOOM! He was blown to bits!

Much safer than what we did as kids, when we took the bombshell from the fireworks called arial bombshells, put a piece of jetex 1 1/2 second fuse on it, put it under a metal dustbin lid, lit it and took cover. It sent the metal dustbin lid about thirty feet into the air. You cannot buy the fuse or the fireworks any more. We did this in about 1964, but i hasten to add that every year at our secondary modern school, (bulldozed in 2,000), copious warnings were given out about Not Doing what we did. Every year there were accidents where kids blew themselves up and maimed themselves badly in their sheds. These lectures are by far and wide the safest way to appreciate what the professor is talking about.

Once, when I was working as a substitute teacher, I mentioned to the class that I had a degree in chemical engineering. One of the students asked me if I could make him a bomb.

There was a demo of an old flint lock rifle firing a wax candle through 2inch of oak wood, then through a few thick house roof tiles, then through a house brick and only stopped by a thick steel armour plate which had a big dent in. To end the lecture all lights were turned off, and 2 flintlock pistols were fired into the air with only a wadding charge.
