Best ways to start a thermite reaction? - Chemistry Stack Exchange I'm trying to do a thermite reaction with rust and aluminum and am trying to figure out the optimal way to get the reaction started My understanding is that I need a temperature of around $\\pu{320
Maximum temperature attainable by thermite reaction 10 In the thermite reaction $$\ce {2Al (s) + Fe2O3 (s) -> 2Fe (l) + Al2O3 (s)}$$ what is the maximum temperature attainable by the products? Assume reactants at $25\ \mathrm {^\circ C}$ and $1\ \mathrm {atm}$ and that all heat capacities remain constant I started by using Hess's law to find the enthalpy change of the reaction
Is it possible to make thermite that detonates? [closed] Though thermite emits a great many photons (wear welders goggles while watching), the photons don't propagate inside the mixture, which is opaque In brief, then, the answer is "No, thermite cannot detonate " Footnote In a transparent medium, it might be possible that a detonation could proceed at the speed of light!
Iron and copper oxide for thermite - Chemistry Stack Exchange I recently successfully made thermite from iron oxide powder and aluminum powder However, I have a couple of questions about copper and iron oxides The kind of iron oxide that is made by electrol
Can thermite be lit while mixed into butane? If not is there a . . . Thermite is a solid-solid reaction that I think would be greatly inhibited by any sort of intermediate In either case, the smoke, the dust and the copious amounts of nitrous oxides produced will not make your asthma any better off than if you were to pick up a shovel And then there will likely be other safety-, legal-, environment- and relationship-with-neighbours -related issues that alone
Can molten aluminium be used to reduce iron oxide (rust) into iron? The trick to the thermite reaction of iron oxides with aluminum is the ignition temperature: somewhere over 1600 °C Since aluminum melts at 660 °C you have to add (and sustain on contact) a lot of heat before it can begin to steal oxygen from rust
Can I process pyroxene or olivine as a part of magnesium thermite? Pyroxene and olivine are both minerals containing magnesium ions So these magnesium ions will probably prevent a thermite reaction produced by mixing one of these minerals with metallic magnesium powder
