All You Need To Know About Chemistry Magic Tricks
Magic of all forms has always held a certain fascination for most people, regardless what age they are. The fact that someone can make things seem to happen totally opposite from what you know they are not, grabs your attention and arouses your curiosity to the point that you think your eyes are just not working right. The question of "how the heck did he do that?" hangs in the air.
Yep, no doubt about it, magic is mysterious and rouses people's curiosity; but so does chemistry for the average person who knows little about chemistry except what water is made up of, or table salt, for that matter. Remember those days in high school when you were sitting in the chemistry lab looking at all the bottles of chemicals and all those burners and glassware, and how trembling and insignificant you felt? Well, chemistry has that effect on the man-on-the-street too, and if you combine that chemistry memory feeling with the feeling that magic generates, yikes, you have a home run. What a crowd reaction you could get if you combined them both and came up with chemistry magic tricks.
Magic tricks in general are showstoppers when they are done correctly, so much so that even the most hardened disbeliever will be caught up in the fun and the spirit of the trick simply because they can't believe what they just saw, and can't figure out a rational explanation. Most people have had positive experiences with magic sometime in their lives, from when they were a little kid and some funny person reached behind their ear when they weren't paying attention, and pulled a quarter out of the air; to actually seeing a show where the headliner was a master of deception and made a person seemingly disappear into the air.
Doing the most simple to the most difficult types of chemistry magic tricks can really be a blast for you if you know what you are doing and don't generate a mushroom cloud over the area of the tricks or blow the windows out of the room while you are trying to perform them. Browse the Internet for ideas for tricks that you can perform easily and there are many sites that offer chemistry magic tricks of all degrees of difficulty, and in this way you can have a unique repertoire of tricks to perform.
When it comes to combining magic with simple chemistry, your thoughts automatically turn to kids; because they are willing to believe almost anything mysterious, and they have a whale of a good time just being involved and trying to figure out just how you did what you just did when you performed your repertoire of chemistry magic tricks. Take for example that standard experiment that a lot of folks do with their kids as a science project, can be performed for a group of kids with just as much fun and excitement as anything else they've seen: I'm talking about the erupting volcano. All it takes to perform this trick is to build a "volcano cone" out of flour and water, with piles of baking soda and detergent inside hidden from the viewers. Then comes the chemistry/magic part: carefully pour in your magic ingredient-vinegar--mixed with water, and voila!, the volcano erupts with volumes of foam to the delight of your audience who are awed by the magic you have just performed. Another easy chemistry based trick is making slime: which can be made easily out of water, glue, and borax powder and provide hours of fun for the kids.
Kids are not the only ones who are wowed by the world of chemistry magic tricks: most adults are big fans as well and jump at the chance to watch these tricks being done while trying to figure out how you did it. The average guy on the street is not chemistry savvy and you can put a lot of magical stuff over on someone when they haven't a clue on how chemicals or everyday products react to and with each other. When you make the impossible happen right under their noses, they can't believe their eyes and watch with open mouths as you become the Mr. Wizard of the neighborhood. Take for example the Burning Dollar Bill trick. Based on very simple chemistry premises, the trick is performed by taking a dollar bill, some water and some alcohol, and a match. The dollar bill, being made of a cloth-like material; will soak up the water and alcohol, but because the bill material and the alcohol have different flash points and alcohol's is lower, when a flame is introduced in the form of the match; the alcohol burns, the bill is wet and doesn't; so it appears the bill is on fire to the audience, but you can blow it out and whoopee! The bill isn't even singed. What a great magician you are, thinks the audience.
Chemistry magic tricks are fun and exciting and real icebreakers when done in the correct way for the right crowd, and lots of ideas for tricks can be found quickly on the Internet. They can be as easy or as difficult as the person performing them can master; but all in all they promote conversation and a lot of chuckling, elbowing, and good will providing a good time to be had by all, not only for the crowd but also for the performer.
