Lithium in a glass of water
(13) | 19/06/2019 | Translate: A young man tries an experiment, throw a large lithium-piece in a glass of water. Removed from a lithium battery and plunged into a glass of water to see his reaction. Lithium caught fire and the enormous amount of heat liberated broke the glass. Lithium is an alkali metal that easily reacts with air or water. When in contact with water, The chemical reaction releases hydrogen (H2) which can cause fire or explosion.

A large piece of sodium in water The sodium metal reacts violently when in contact with water, producing hydrogen. Like all other metals, sodium reacts exothermically with water, as a result the heat released is often sufficient to cause a small explosion.- Manufacture of glass bottles in a factory A brief tour of the production line of a glass bottle factory. The molten glass falls as we see at the beginning into pieces at the lowest point where the molds are located. The tempered glass enters the molds, and then a nozzle pushes air into the orifice to form the bottle into the mold.
