Some time ago to see the magic circle, which Homura Akemi used M84-style shocker. The subtitles of a given group, the reaction is ammonium and magnesium principle. So I bought ammonium chloride and magnesium powder. The following is an experiment notes.

First, consider the use of water as a trigger, the principle mixed with magnesium silver nitrate. Contacting magnesium chloride and speculations are blocked reaction will produce a product, and add water dissolves the product, the reaction was carried out. However, the actual: the addition of water followed by a slow reaction. The solution was allowed to reach only the boiling level, controlled amount of water added in a range of 1-2ml bottle mixed powder was added water, a total of three experiments, did not see even a spark.

Later, after verification Wikipedia, the use of ammonium nitrate. Although not quite understand the difference between ammonium nitrate and ammonium chloride, but the fact that more talented nitrate to make weapons. After many contacts, however, almost all chemical plants do not sell to individuals nitrate. The only company to sell ammonium nitrate, 55 bottle/500g. How not to try to steal it!

Here is thus a schematic idea of ??ammonium nitrate preparation, taking into account the risk of being shielded herein, it faded details.

NH4Cl + HNO3 conditions NH4NO3 + HCl

However, I like most people, can not get nitric acid. But buy ammonium nitrate and calcium ammonium bicarbonate. Contemplated the reaction equation below, the same fade conditions.

5Ca (NO3) 2 NH4NO3 10H2O + NH4HCO3 - Conditions - CaCO3 + NH4NO3

In addition to the problem of the reactants, and I also try to use other means of ignition. Considering the burning magnesium powder so do not use alcohol lamp. By compacting the mixed powder medicine tightly packed column, the lighter ignition. But I underestimated the amount of heat required for burning magnesium. It ended in failure.

Given the school's labs do not, it is estimated application, and said to flare in the laboratory trial, estimated school leaders and teachers are not approved laboratory management. Experiment as a family party, such as laboratory equipment and conditions are not good, not recommended for home care to try. Above as the initial trial report on the feasibility assessment is: in the absence of laboratory and other professional qualifications, relatively feasible.

To be continued.
