The Dancing Gummy Bear

The second experiment we did was named 'The Dancing Gummy Bear.'

You might think this experiment must be interesting. We are gonna make the gummy bear dance.

Well, you are so right!

This experiment requires you a gummy bear, potassium chlorate, a beaker, a bunsen burner, a boiling tube, a pair of test-tube holder, tripod stand and a wire gauze.

How did we make the gummy bear dance?

Well, when potassium chlorate reacts with a gummy bear which acts as glucose it will cause a reaction.
The reaction occured makes a vigorous flame. You guys may not see the gummy bear dance if you look
outside the beaker. But if u move just a lil closer and put ur head above the beaker, you might just see it
moving around the beaker. But becareful, because the flame produced is vigorous.

Here are some pictures when the experiment was held.

As you can see, the boiling tube wasn't heated directly. It is heated in a beaker with water. 

This is to make sure the heating is even. 

While waiting for the potassium chlorate to melt. After it has melt, pour the molten potassium chlorate

into a beaker. Then, throw a gummy bear into the beaker and this is what happens.

A vigorous flame is produced due to the reaction of melted potassium chlorate and a gummy bear which acts as a glucose.

Well, before i end this post, f.y.i. this is one of the method people in firework industries used to make fireworks. 

Till then.
