    Thank you for mixing an acid and a base.

    Edit: This needs more physics.

    Edit Edit: That domain concerns me.

    Gah, chlorine and brake fluid make for better explosions.

    Meh, the best explosions are sodium bicarbonate, as much as you can dissolve into some lukewarm water, then soak a bit of crust into it for a few seconds. Leave out for the birds, and watch the 'plosions!

    Seagull giblets!

    I can only assume that this works for the simple reason that you don't hear seaguls burp and fart the gases out...

    You mean you've never seen a seagull go boom?!

    Honestly, some people are just boring... ¬_¬

    Works on pigeons too. Got a few of them here in Yarmouth last year. Wouldn't dare think of doing it in London, in Trafalgar Square... Police would end up thinking it was a bomb going off!

    All you've got to do is make sure to dissolve enough of it, to the point that you start getting solids form at the bottom of the cup that you're making the mix in.

    It's definately not going to be milk. Try the brake fluid.

    No, mixing acid and water causes a lot of heat, and a lot of splashing will occur. Since you are adding water to acid, the acid will be the thing splashing. And chemical burns suck.

    Er, no it doesn't. I've mixed water and acids many times, and there has been no change in temperature, unless your talking pure HCL or others, in which case you won't just find it sitting on a shelf.

    Actually, try milk, shake and RUN LIKE HELL honestly, ive never seen a bigger non-ignition bang in my life, it might work with break fluid too, im not sure, but with milk its dangerous. and the end product iirc is poisonous.

    That is why one always adds acid to water, not water to acid.Adding small amounts of water to large amounts of acid is just stupid. The other way, you'll get dilute acid.
