[NocturnalTyphlosion]

god the lithium red flame is so pretty

[BackYardScience]

It's important to remember that larger chunks of lithium won't catch fire. The only reason this does is because of the extremely high surface area available for the reaction with water to happen. Now, if you throw a chunk in nitric acid like I did, it will explode. 😂😬

Hard to get your hands on? My man just opened up a normal disposable lithium battery you can get at any store.

First? Also i like how nate's channel feels more like the OG TKOR than the present TKOR

[sleepdeprivedpikachu]

i love the alkali metals so much i wrote a giant paper for my chemistry class in high school on them

[yonosenada]

Watch out metal aliens, we got super soakers.

[ActionAdventureTwins]

We did that once, tons of fun. Maybe do it outside though because the house smelled so horrible

[enigmacrk]

“It’s hard to get your hands on” is in almost every single modern battery in existence

[NZD]

So that's how SpongeBob got that fire started for the campfire song song 😅
