    Johnny was a chemist,
    But now he is no more.
    What he thought was H2O,
    Was H2SO4.

    press alf f4 for instant explosion

    Mullet if you can find some Cesium (below sodium on the periodic table) it would do more then just smoke. It would be a small scale TNT explosion, depending upon how much you put in. (I would NOT put more then 1 gram at the most if indoors(Massive flames) and not more then 10 grams(One stick of TNT) while outdoors and needing time to get away.)

    Really need to work out a time delay device, as in a candle burning the paper underneath the Cesium then it falls into water. However, keep in mind with abundant amounts of O2 in the air, it could explode outside by itself, but usually needs to be quite concetrated.

    Put the water in a big container, preferably with a small opening (think water cooler). Drop sodium, potassium, or rubidium - in ascending order of strength of reaction - into container (lithium is too weak, cesium is too strong, and francium is radioactive. Find something better to do with it <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

    Cover the container for a minute or so. Take cover off. Hold flame over hole. Don't get burned.

    *note* I know this works cause our chem teacher did this in a lab to get us interested in how reactions work. Indoors. With a frickin brick of sodium, and 2 gallons of water. The flame reached the ceiling. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Be REALLY dang careful. Small amounts of sodium don't do a whole lot,but as you get larger the explosion grows almost exponentially. If you're not careful you can go from some fizzing to glass shards flying at your face when you thought you'd just get a big fizz.

    If they use that much that the cover blew off before you build up enough hydrogen for a big flame, the thing would explode on its own anyway; no need for pyrotechnics to have fun. Actually, I wouldn't want to light that much hydrogen on fire....my example is something you'd do if you want the flame, not the explosion.

    You want the container to explode, plop a LOT of sodium in it, seal, and run.

    Fizzing? Your sodium blocks aren't big enough.

    If you were to drop a brick of concetrated Na into a gallon of water, you would not have time to run. Which is why I suggested a time delay device.

    Sodium reacts relatively quickly if left out in the air, but it doesn't explode on its own if you just sit it on a table, or even if you throw a match on it. The heat from friction won't do anything. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Those light weight metals react explosively with Oxygen, when you have water obviously you have lots of Oxygen and since this reaction causes heat, the H2 seperates and expands however the heat produced is "usually" enough to cause a flame. Which is why sodium, potassium, rubidium, and cesium are stored in non oxygen contained liquid.

    You won't find much francium around, but that isn't a bad thing, being that its radioactive and all.

    My chem teacher did have a TINY bit stored in a lead container, surrounded by some sort of oil to keep it from reacting explosively with just the air. Same goes for the cesium (not lead container), and rubidium. Sodium and potassium were just contained in glass jars with their lids sealed tight and some sort of solvent in there. I do not recall what it was.


    *edit* Found it, they were stored in HNO3 (inert atmosphere) *edit*

    I'm going to go ahead and suggest not throwing a brick of pure sodium into water.

    You have been warned. However, if you do manage to secure one, make sure you are behind something that is quite, fragmented parts of plastic traveling at VERY HIGH speeds impact repelant.

    *side note* A brick of sodium COULD burn your hand... don't forget the gloves, and if possible coat the brick in the oil BEFORE throwing in water, and run like heck.
