Instant Hot Ice
February 20, 2008 · Filed Under Science Tricks · 1 Comment
I promise I’ll get back to real magic tricks tomorrow, but this science trick was just too cool to pass up. It uses sodium acetate to create a supersaturated solution, that when touched, instantly crystallizes and releases heat, giving the appearance and feel of “hot ice.” I remember doing this demo in chemistry class when I was in school. It would be really cool to incorporate this into a trick routine somehow.
