To make the flour bomb you take a tissue(or toilet paper, but tissue is preffered) and lay it on a table or somthing and put a spoonfull of flour on it. \nAfter that grab all of the corners of the tissue and \nconnect them all together with the part where the flour is still laying on the table(without spilling the flour) and twist-tie them together. \n\nThey are really fun to throw at people you dont like and if you add water to it it makes a doh bomb, which just makes things better and stickier!

Open it up and smash it with a hammer. If you destroy anything vital, it will stop working.\n\nThe difficult part with atomic bombs is to make them explode. Everything MUST work perfectly with perfect timing. If anything is off, it's a dud. The chances of them exploding accidentally is almost zero.\n\nAccidental launch is a different matter.

Fill a long tube with solids and try to blow air through it.\nPut a flabby piece of rubber at the end.\nYou will get all your answers then.

This is actually pretty easy.\n1) Take a 2 liter bottle and poke a hole in the cap (with a sharp knife or philips head screwdriver) just a bit smaller than the diameter of a straw.\n\n2) Get a straw and force it through the hole in the lid. The straw should be made out of a fairly strong substance.... perhaps like a curly straw. The curly straws actually have straight sections. If the straight section is at least 3 inches long, it should work to go ahead and cut it. If the straw jams too tightly in the lid, it will obstruct the flow so just cut the hole slightly bigger until you get the right fit. We just want the straw to fit REALLY snug.\n\n3) position the straw so only a small length of it is pointing out the bottom of the cap (the longer portion should be sticking out of the top of the cap acting as a nozzle). Once the straw is placed, you could use a little epoxy or tape just to keep it from coming out.\n\n4) Get a small water balloon. Lower it into the opening of the bottle but DON'T LET IT FALL IN!!!!  While holding the opening of the water balloon above the opening of the bottle (with the rest of the balloon hanging inside the bottle), fill the balloon with vinegar so that it takes up about half the volume of the bottle. Once this is done, tie off the top of the water balloon and let it drop into the bottle. You may want to hold the bottle on it's side so the balloon doesn't smack the bottom of the bottle. Then slowly tip the bottle back up.\n\n5) Now, carefully fill the remaining space in the bottle with baking soda. (we don't want the balloon to pop YET)\n\n6) Put the lid back on the bottle and stick a piece of chewed gum just barely in the outside opening of the straw. This will preserve the baking soda by not letting any excess moisture in while the fire extinguisher is not in use. Make sure that the gum is not in too tightly or too far as we want to be able to remove it quickly.\n\n7) You are done!!!!! To use it just remove the gum and smack the bottle on a hard surface so the balloon breaks inside the bottle. When the balloon breaks, the vinegar and baking soda will mix, react, cause pressure, and the pressure will be released through the straw and in the direction that you point the fire extinguisher  : )\n\nHope this helps\nThanks\nJon

I'd use lots of pyrotechnics, and surround sound to make myself sound booming. All you really need is fire and confusing sound.

First mould a volcano with plastercine or play dough.\n\nThen fill it with bicarbonate of soda, baking powder or health salt.\n\nGet some vinegar and then mix it with reddish-orangey (Lava colour) ink or food colouring.\n\nThen pour your coloured mixture with the bicarbonate of soda, baking powder or health salt in the volcano.\n\nHey Presto! The bubbles should start to rise. \n\nWhen Bicarbonate of Soda is mixed with an acid liquid (Vinegar)it releases the gas carbon dioxide (CO2): \n\nNaHCO3     +     H+     ----->     Na+     +     H20     +     CO2\n(soda)         (acid)           (sodium)       (water)        (gas)\n\n^ Above is the word equasion. If you are good at science you might be able to understand this.\n\nI hope I helped you.

simple answer: expands till you heat it enough, then it breaks apart. (The gas breaks apart at the molecular level)\n\nbetter answer:\n\nWhen you increase the temperature of a substance the molecules store the energy in different forms. Forms such as vibrations, stretches, and translational motion. As the temperature is put in the system the air will increase its molecular motions (vibrations, stretches, translations...) the air becomes hot and the molecules move much quicker due to absorbed thermal energy. If you heat it enough you will rip apart the molecules and possibly start seeing a purple plasma. You can do this easily with a high voltage teslacoil.\nIf the closing material is fragile enough you can cause a pop! \n\nAdditionally, when fluids are heated the oxygen is removed slowly thus reheating can lead to superheating.\n\nAs you heat gasses, depending on their stucture, you can begin different modes of motion and change the heat capacity.

The Simple Rock Blasting (SRB) method is:\n(1) Drill a small & deep hole.\n(2) Insert ur TNT to the hole.\n(3) Lay ur "fire line"carefully.\n(4) RUN AWAY!!!\n(5) Then, "BOOM"!!\n(6) Go inside & clean the debris.\nthat simple and easy!

If you heated a tank of compressed helium, the pressure might be enough to cause the tank to burst. The tank would become a missile (Newton's 3 law) and slam into whatever was opposite the breach.

It will definitely explode, but not to this extent as you have mentioned. \n\nIf you want a more massive explosion try out a beer can or champagne bottle. Then the blast will be enough to hurt humans, but again not to your desired extent.

put a lot of sticks in a pile with some newspaper, light a match, and if it doesnt work add some flamable liquid\n\n\nJust dont singe your eyebrows.....!!!!!!!!!

I highly recommend "NOT" doing this. A loud noise suggests some "sharp" release of energy; and believe me, from past experience, there is nothing "non-dangerous" when playing with pyrotechnics of any kind. They all can remove fingers, toes, and appendages depending on size (either blowing them off, or burning them severely). Do not mess with explosives! \n  A "stink bomb" (non-explosive) can be made from a little soft cardboard (like found in some egg cartons- the grey ones) and a little sulfur. A dab of the sulfur in an indentation in a small piece of the cardboard and pinch it closed over the top. When lighting this, if a flame occurs "blow it out".  It should only smolder, and the smoke created will be like rotten eggs.  Just don't use too much, since a lot of Sulfur dioxide can be harmful.\n\nIf you simply MUST have a loud noise, blow some air into a plastic bag and pop it quickly.

its pretty simple.\nyou need a pvc or pvp or whatever the fuck its called,pipe. some hairspray(seriously) a potato and a match. spray mad hairspray at the bottom of the pipe, insert potato. and light it up. (the tricky part is introducing the flame to the fuel.

I've never tried this or heard of it being done, so ask your teacher if it's safe to try this experiment. Take a balloon that has a good long neck on it and force it into the tab opening of an empty aluminum soda can. Then blow the balloon up as hard as you can so that it expands to fill the inside of the can and forces all the air out of the empty can (which really wasn't empty because it had air in it!) Continue to pinch off the neck of the balloon with your fingers so the air won't come out of the balloon. Now fill up a big tall kitchen pot or the sink half way and turn the aluminum soda can upside down completely into the sink or pan of water until the top of the can and pinched off balloon are partially submerged under the water. Now start letting the air out of the balloon gradually and watch the bubbles come to the surface of the water. When all the air is out of the balloon, it still has atmospheric air pressure inside it which keeps the can from being crushed by the atmospheric air pressure of the air in the room above the water level. So try to pull the balloon out of the soda can gradually while making sure to keep the soda can tab and balloon openings under the water level. Results? Does the can get crushed by atmospheric air pressure? Of course, we always have about 14.7 pounds per square inch of atmospheric pressure at sea level. You may have to experiment with different container types that your teacher says are safe to experiment with and one that had the globular shape of a blown up balloon would allow the air to be pushed out fully. You should wear good safety glasses in case any other container (like thin plastic) rather than the aluminum container shatters in the process of imploding.\n \nPS,  Using a wider mouth container, like the aluminum soda can with it's top sawed off, you could pull the balloon out quickly even when it was blown up with air. Don't cut yourself on any sharp metal edges though. The metal or plastic container material can't be too strong and thick because it can't collapse easily then under the force of the atmospheric air pressure.
