Four Chemical Ways To Make Fire Without Matches

Hello everyone. Today we will consider reactions of making fire without matches.
Please note that this video was made solely for demonstration purposes! Do not attempt to repeat the experiments shown in this video!
The first reaction, which is already known to many people, is the reaction of potassium permanganate and glycerin.
Let’s pour the potassium permanganate. Now make a small indentation for the glycerol and afterwards add glycerol.
Since my potassium permanganate is not ground the reaction requires a lot of time. To accelerate the reaction add a few drops of water.
Glycerol reacts with potassium permanganate, contributing to its decomposition. The reaction increases by the generated heat.
Now the next reaction. We place a mixture of potassium chlorate and sugar in a ratio of 2 to 1. All components were thoroughly ground.
To start the reaction, sulfuric acid was added dropwise.
Now the third reaction. I moisten a piece of cloth with acetone to make it more flammable.
Let’s put a concentrated sulfuric acid into a pipette and then sink it in a potassium permanganate to take a few crystals. Prepare a droplet and drip onto the napkin.
Sulfuric acid reacts with the potassium permanganate forming manganese oxide 7 which ignites acetone.
And the last reaction. Pour a mixture, which consist of four grams of ammonium nitrate and one gram of sodium chloride, i.e. table salt.
All components were thoroughly ground. Add ten grams of zinc powder to this mixture.
Next, mix the components. To start the reaction, add a few drops of water.

I worked as a water treatment operator for 20+ years & was around many of the chemicals that could be explosive on a daily basis. Being in a rural area, a lot of people still used deep, live wells as their drinking water source. Occasionally someone would come to the water plant wanting a small bit of some chemical to take care of a bad taste/odor (usually a rotten egg smell) problem or maybe a cloudy water problem. 1 day a gentleman came in wanting something to take care of a rotten egg odor he had with his well water & my supervisor used a small plastic container to mix a combination of HTH & powdered carbon for him to pour in his well. Shortly after mixing it, these dry, powdered chemicals had reacted with each other to have the consistency spackling compound. After this happened, I watched it while they were visiting. At some point I noticed the container was beginning to deform. I felt it & it was extremely hot. I told the supervisor about this & he immediately took it outside & threw it in our dumpster. At some point it self ignited & burned so hot, it nearly burned a hole through the heavy gauge steel of the dumpster & melted the large plastic lids on it. I was told by another co-worker that the flame he saw was white hot. I've looked online to find an explanation of this reaction, but have been unable to find 1. Does anybody have any thoughts about, or could explain this reaction?

Imagine showing this to someone at the Middle Ages

Tomorrow is my practical of chemistry 🧪🧪🧪 so see this video and this video is better than my practical language. Thankyou sir 🙏🏻🙏😊😊🤗🤗

Using your awesome accent...can you plesse say 'we have vays to make you talk'

[hypnosstratagem]

Very interesting. Thank you very much.

[ngcf]

Where do you learn these sort of things?

Glycerin added to potassium permangenate works rather quickly, only a few seconds. Don't add quite as much as was done here. Good video.

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) and calcium hypochlorite is another interesting one that yields flame.

The cat is the best part of this video

Two more ways:
1. conc. nitric acid + nitrile
2. white phosphorus

[RT]

How about dumping highly concentrated H2O2 on anything that will burn (wood, paper, gasoline, etc)

[mikegLXIVMM]

A small pile of calcium hypochlorite(pool shock) + a few drops of Cyanoacrylate (Super glue).

[babydollxx]

What zinc powder is it?? Is it zinc oxide??

[LimitedGunnerGM]

HTH and Brake Fluid works well and it's less volatile

[JETWTF]

So which is better for starting the campfire?

[bhaveydhaka]

This is not the end this is not the beginning, just a voice like a riot rocking every revision!!
Sobs* chester fucking bennington 😭😭😢

[susanp.collins]

You say in a ratio of 2:1. But which is the sugar and which is the permanganate?

[jawadkhan]

Do you have a lab where you get these chemicals?
