Turning chemicals green

Its been awhile but here is a science post on doing an experiment. So in class we did an experiment how a single replacement created a copper metal which when put over fire turned the flame green. Though me and my partner didn’t quite get to the end step we did see other people finish it before the bell rung. But what we did was get aluminum and soak it in copper fluid that burns the aluminum foil into smaller parts for the further steps. Where we take. Aluminum chloride and you washed that out with water to get the clearest solution.

I dont have pics of the flame since we didn’t get that far but this was how far we got of it changing colours.

So even though we didn’t succeed it was still interesting learning about the process and seeing other people succeed.

So bye for now!
