Play With Fluorescein And Vodka
You know that fluorescent stuff in highlighters? That’s what you’re going to use for this next science experiment! Make sure you do this next one outside, since fluorescein has a tendency to stain anything it touches. Head to the shop and purchase 15 highlighter markers. Pull out the tubes of yellow coloring. Dripp a quarter-inch hose top to the lid of the bottle of vodka to squirt it out. To flush out the fluorescein, pump the vodka into the tube over a bowl. One the two are mixed together, you can put it in a saucepan and put it on simmer on a stove. Make sure there’s nothing flammable nearby, as this could potentially be dangerous. Once the alcohol evaporates, you can pour what’s left over into a bowl of water and shine a black light on it. You’ll have something spectacular right before your eyes. Who needs to travel to see the Northern Lights when you can see them in a bowl, inside your own home? (Lsop).
