My chemistry classes are getting ready to do a lab in which we determine the empirical formula for Magnesium Oxide. The lab has to be carried out in a controlled reaction, so that the magnesium doesn't burn. To show the students why we wouldn't be able to get any good data from the uncontrolled combustion of magnesium, I let them burn a few small strips of magnesium. They were warned to NOT look directly at the flame. We did turn off the lights (once, and very carefully!!!!) to see the how bright the reaction was in a dark room. Fun times in chemistry ;-)
