Crazy chemistry and epic experiments

Summary

Alright BOOM, Big Manny is here to show you how you can become a real-life scientist and create awesome experiments at home using ordinary ingredients.

We'll learn some basic (and not-so basic) chemistry tings - from combustion to chromatography (chroma-what-now?).

We'll meet the amazing elements that each have their own personalities - from fiery hydrogen to the main man oxygen.

And we'll create explosive reactions - from fizzing mixtures to dish soap volcanoes!

Let's start experimenting and find out why science is lit, innit.
