Making chemical fireflies

@nileredAbout
Capturing the natural beauty of chemistry I find that chemistry is often taught poorly or without a purpose. Because of this, people tend to lose interest and sometimes even start to hate it. In each video that I make, I try to balance theory with purpose. My goal is to capture the natural beauty of chemistry in fun and interesting ways. In terms of education, I have a BSc in Biochemistry, with a minor in pharmacology. However, I've always been a lot more drawn to applied chemistry. So after finishing my degree, I worked as a lab tech in an organic lab, and then as a chemistry grad student. However, I ended up leaving my graduate studies early to focus on this channel. Now, making chemistry videos has become my full-time job! Sponsorships and related business inquiries: [email protected] Other inquiries: [email protected]

Video Description
For this video, I'm just going to be making chemical fireflies, which is something that I always find fun. To do this, all I need is some ammonium dichromate, and I just need to pour some into a dish, and light it on fire. #shorts
