Left a flame unattended. Good on the calculations, maybe not so much for lab safety

You are against poverty too, arent you.

Great video- Thanks! I'll be trying your "target lab" idea out with my kids next time.

Thanks for the clear video

yo my chem teacher assigned me this. Anyone down to play fortnite or valorant

[@kooldude_m8734]

sure

Scientific! Chemistry rules!!:) I like learning.

His chemical equation is incorrect
Sodium carbonate itself decomposes into carbon dioxide and sodium oxide. This is evidenced by just heating a sample of sodium carbonate and using a lit splint, which extinguishes upon entrance into the test tube
His equation should be 2NaHCO3 (s) --> 2CO2 (g) + H2O (g) + Na2O (s)
Although, the experiment's results do support his equation (given the calculations) .... odd from my perspective

The sodium oxide is only generated upon further, higher heating of sodium carbonate (above 850 C).

yo if anyone is reading this does anyone have discord and want to waste their time playing world of warcraft?
