Volcano Experiment

The experiment "Volcano" is created using just ammonium dichromate which when burned creates this spectacular volcano effect.

For your information, ammonium dichromate, sometimes known as Vesuvian Fire, is a chemical compound that was used as an oxidizer in early photography and pyrotechnics, and in the formation of tabletop "volcanoes".
