Burning Money Demo. By: Aaron Williams & Kristina Mickelson
Balanced Chemical Reaction C2H5OH+4O2 2CO2+3H20+energy
Reactants C2H5OH4O2 • Carbon • Hydrogen • Oxygen
Products 2CO23H2Oenergy • Carbon dioxide • Water • Energy
Combustion • Act or process of burning • Rapid oxidation accompanied by hear and usually, light • Chemical combustion attended by production of heat and light • Slow oxidation not accompanied by high temperature and light
Materials • Alcohol-water solution(50% alcohol 50%water) • Dollar bill • Tongs • Matches or lighter
Procedure • . Prepare the alcohol and water solution. You can mix 50 ml of water with 50 ml of 95-100% alcohol. • 2. Add a pinch of salt or other colorant to the alcohol/water solution, to help produce a visible flame. • 3. Soak a dollar bill in the alcohol/water solution so that it is thoroughly wet. • 4. Use tongs to pick up the bell. Allow any excess liquid to drain. Move the damp bill away from the alcohol/water solution. • 5. Light the bill on fire and allow it to burn until the flame goes out.
