[0:01]Okay, so I've decided to do a chemical reaction that in my opinion, kind of looks like magic. The first thing that I need is a bit of corn starch, and I'll mix this with some boiling water.
[0:20]A small amount of the corn starch didn't dissolve, and to clear it up a bit, I'll just pour it through some coffee filters. It took a little while to finish, but when it was eventually done, I added some hydrogen peroxide. I'll mark this one as part B, and the next thing I have to do is make the part A. To do this, I'll need some pills, and I picked up some vitamin C. I only need two of them, and all I have to do is crush them and mix them with water.
[1:02]What I'm doing here is pulling out the vitamin C from the pill and leaving behind a bunch of filler. Like before, I'll dump this into some coffee filters to clean it up a bit.
[1:18]Now that it's done, I'll add an entire bottle of iodine disinfectant. The color of it immediately disappears, and this is because the vitamin C is reacting with the iodine. On top of this, I'll add a bunch of water, and that's it for part A. Now, all I need to do is mix together these two solutions. At first, it doesn't seem like anything is happening, and it basically does nothing for over a minute. It takes such a long time that I often think I messed something up, but then it suddenly changes. This is called the iodine clock reaction, and I think it's pretty cool.
