  1. haha, thats the problem. this is an all after class "assignment". and the more he teaches the more i notice how little i actually know.
  2. thanks for all the concern. you are right, my background in chemistry isnt very much. thats why im here. trying to learn more. ive done almost everything i can do on paper w/ thermite and i thought id try to get an outside opnion before my science teacher makes it.
  3. Thanks for the help. my science teacher okayed it becasue once im done testing this i plan on entering it to a science fair for review. anyways this is me double checking what ive learned, help would be nice.
  4. My chemistry teacher is helping me make thermite and he is the type that asks a lot of questions and gives out very few answers. so ive still got a lot of questions left before he will okay me to make thermite. i read that thermite used in welding is 25% Al and 75% Fe2O3, is that true and should i use this ratio? i also came across this ratio: 2 mols of Al is equal to 1 mol of Fe. True? know any good ways to make iron oxide (Fe2O3) quick? i found one that sugests taking steel wool and dipping it in vinigear and leaving it in a jar for roughly 15 minutes. good idea?
