Thanks a lot for this video. Educational tapes from the 50s and 60s never fail to teach with detail.

Will you also make a "Teaching" playlist? One with all the chem, bio, physics and math videos together?

So the white one is the white phosphorous, and the red one is the red phosphorous. Ok, let me write that down, so I don't forget it.
