Hydrogen Peroxide, soap, and Potassium Iodide will do this. The KI acts as a catalyst for the decomposition of H202, which releases H2 and O2. The soap captures the gasses and expands.

You may be able to light it on fire...

EDIT: Source: I used to be a lab aid; Did this all the time (not the fire part)

[–]phoenyxrysing 68 points69 points ago

Unless you enjoy long hours in the lab waiting for a reaction to "stir for three hours", absurd amounts of calculus (p-chem...shudder), and nothing but 9am and 10am classes...turn back now.

That is all.

[–]OneDeltaTwo 20 points21 points ago

Lost 3 years of my life to a Chem course. My inner pyromaniac is still unfulfilled.

If it was all set things on fire you'd see a lot more people signing up. Even when you get to set stuff on fire the amount you're burning is usually pitiful, and behind saftey glass.

[–]Pepsisformosa 9 points10 points ago

Really? We had lots of fires in my chem classes. Of course, that was because the instructor didn't care about lab safety... The day we worked with ether was fun, too.

      Agreed. The most excitement I got from my class was almost causing my centrifuge to flip(I forgot to balance the tubes)

      [–]OneDeltaTwo 4 points5 points ago

      My best day:

      Had some reflux reaction bubbling away for 2 hours, now it's time to add the ice cold ethanol and finish the reaction. To this day I don't know why my spherical flask shattered from the temperature change whilst everyone else's stayed in one piece.

      That was the day I found how fast my lab techs could run. Reaction mixture + ethanol -->(with roaring bunsen burner)--> desk on fire.

      [–]TranClan67 1 point2 points ago

      lol similar to one of mine

      Mixing some copper solutions to form crystals but I added too much water. Lab TA tells me to boil away the excess water(everything was still fluid mind you). So I did but then when I stopped the heat it, for some reason, erupted everywhere :/

      Had to restart that lab man.

                    I did it as a science teacher (for some reason it was called "elephant's toothpaste") with my students. But it never ever went that fast. I'm going to assume the H202 here was a lot stronger than the one I had access to. Boo for watered down peroxide.

                    [–]Xalba 12 points13 points ago

                    If you use soap dissolved in near boiling water, it will greatly improve the reaction speed and thereby giving you a result much like this one!

                    For added flair use some Potassium Permanganese i would think it is called in english (KMNO4). Nice color, but it is somewhat carcinogenic so use gloves unlike this guy

                    [–]Maxxters 6 points7 points ago

                    Ooh! Didn't think of that (heating up the soap). We always saved the potassium permanganate for other cool experiments.

                    [–]fistman 1 point2 points ago

                    I knew it as "elephant's trunk"

                    [–]Rushaw 5 points6 points ago

                    chem teacher called it the "von krap" experiment. We all thought it was legit, until the ta-daa moment. It came out a lot browner (hence the name i guess)

                    [–]the_hell_is_that 3 points4 points ago

                    That happens if you use manganese dioxide as a catalyst instead of potassium iodate.

                          Any specific kind of soap? and where would I get KI (in a shop, preferably) Also is ratio important?

                          You can get KI pills at most pharmacies i believe. They're used to protect people from radiation. During the fukushima mishap a bunch of people in California bought a ton of them because they were scared of radiation I believe.

                          Normal dawn dish soap works fine. The more bubbles the soap makes the better it will work.

                          The ratio of KI to H2O2 is not all that important. It acts as a catalyst, and isn't actually used up in the reaction. A gram (maybe even less? I don't quite remember) should do it.

                          Also, note the concentration of H2O2 that you use. Higher concentration will create more foam. Start small first to get an idea of what to expect, this stuff is fun but it can do some serious damage.

                              See if you can get your hands on some Iodine tablets. They were all the rage after the Fukushima disaster, so they should be easy to get by now.

                                Not gonna be flamable, proportions dont matter, the reaction is soley based on the h2o2, the KI just speeds its up

                                KI is present in "table salt with iodine" but i am not sure how much, i believe little as the body needs very little iodine. a measure of this is nuclear disaster pills that contain 130mg KI, this is over 300-700 times the reccomended daily intake.

                                available here http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/558230697/potassium_iodide.html

                                although it has limited uses in home tinkerish chemistry.

                                Is KI really needed? Can't remember it as an ingredient in the experiment. running food coloring down the side of the cylinder can give the toothpaste a "stripped" appearance. Though KI was part of the "purple haze" experiment often shown in tandem with this one at our school's demonstrations. KI+ammoniumhydroxide makes a safe, shock sensitive implosive crystal that you can set off with a feather.

                                [–]poon-is-food 2 points3 points ago

                                its a catalyst - it speeds up the reaction (in this case decomposition)

                                there are many catalysts, one enzyme that will catalyse this reaction is found in potatoes.

                                this reaction has many catalysts, but of vary degrees of "speed of reaction go"

                                This is right. I thought about the exact same reaction, and the colors (though pixellated and a bit hard to discern) appear to corroborate this. There are a bit of yellow and some browns, which (IIRC) are exceedingly similar to the colors I've seen when doing this.

                                                  *I wrote gave instead of ate. For some reason I also meant to ask if the presence of other things in your stomache would/could interrupt this chemical reaction.

                                                      What chemicals did: reacted in a spectacular fashion.
                                                      What science did: uncovered the rules governing such reactions.

                                                      Reminds me of the Big Bang Theory (screw all you haters, I enjoy it) when Sheldon, who is pranked with helium during a radio talk show, gets revenge by making a similar chemical reaction. Wonder if this is the same thing? It was basically the same color and look, though on the show it happened much slower.

                                                      I've played with this foam before. It's some marine grade stuff. You also have to be really careful about how much you make. I used about 3 times as much as this guy here thinking that "expands to over 20x original volume" was BS. Then there was foam everywhere.

                                                      Dish Soap, Potassium Iodide, and 30% Hydrogen Peroxide (Reaction Initiator)

                                                      My University does this reaction every year for our chemistry community outreach program. A very fun experiment to be honest.
