Liquid Nitrogen Effect made in your Kitchen

 

Our mad scientist friend William Beaty demonstrates how you can make a very cold substance which acts like liquid nitrogen in your kitchen. With this creation you will be able to freeze and shatter flowers, grapes, leaves. Basically all of the demonstrations that we have seen done with liquid nitrogen in high school. The only item that you probably will have to leave the house for is some dry ice, but that is usually easy to find at any welding supply store. If you try this experiment please follow the precautions in the video since even although this stuff is not liquid nitrogen it can still be very dangerous.

Required Items are:

  • Dry Ice
  • Large pop bottle
  • Small pop bottle
  • 99 percent rubbing alcohol

  4. By the way you have a typo on the last line.


  5. and for the REAL fun, smoke a cigarette while performing the experiments…


  6. Wow that fog hangs on the pool for a long time! I wonder if that layer of gas is breathable? The guy that jumped in didn’t seem to have any problems so I guess it is fine.


  7. > and for the REAL fun, smoke a cigarette

    Doesn’t work. Wave a burning flame around, even put it directly into the alcohol fog.
    No fire. Unlike gasoline, alcohol has a high flash point, so it can’t burn when cold.
