Do not try this at home
This is my first short and I thought it would be kinda cool to hilight the exothermic reaction between methanol and hydrochloric acid.
The acid reacts with the water in the methanol. The acid must be added slowly, otherwise the solution will have some localized spontaneous boiling.

Let me know if this is something I should keep doing, its my first short!

Ethanol also warms up when coming into contact with water very briefly. I don't think any methyl chloride is formed just by mixing the two

It's really irresponsible to gas off ounces of alkylating agent into your breathing air and post it on YouTube with no description of the reaction product anywhere
