Practical or written??
If it is practical, thena word to the wise. Blowing up the bench during which you destroy a fume cupboard, several hundred pounds worth of complicated glassware and cause a major gas leak resulting in the entire science block being evacuated is A Bad Thing. If it is written, ensure you know how to write "I am a fish" 500 times!! (One for the Dwarfers out there!!) Failing that, good luck. |

Good luck!!
My favourite japes were turning a bunsen burner into a high powered water pistol and branding the desk with that triangle stand thingie ... best explosion cracked three paving slabs and caused a round of applause form the English block nearby (our illustrious chem teacher decided to do the epxeriment outside ... experience perhaps?) |

I think the worst ive done is to make something extremely concentrated (which i still dunno what it was or how i made it, i just randomly mixed a few chemicals together) anyway it did cause an explosion and manage to put a dent in the desk i was at.

i think it was water, now it was the contact process and there was a sort of mist left over so im pretty sure it was just a form of water or something i mixed who knew water could be so explosive?
