Another video on infrared light.

Looking at water and ice with infrared light helps us understand how light and heat are related.

A quick video introduction to infrared light and how it is different from visible light.

the new James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is designed for detecting infrared radiation. This animation explains what infrared light is, and how the JWST will use it. Please rate and comment, thanks!

A good mini-lab that can be used to teach kids about density.

A REALLY cool experiment for showing kids the properties of reflection and refraction that uses Pyrex beakers, vegetable oil and Pyrex test tubes.

The next time you're eating a big bowl of breakfast cereal, take a closer look at the ingredients. You'll find that it contains more than just wheat and corn. Look closely and you might find iron in your cereal... you know, the metal... the stuff used to make nails. Here's an experiment that proves you're eating iron for breakfast.

This video might be great for teaching polarity and dissolving. We're going to show you how to make water-proof sand! It's fun, easy and awesome!

When you combine sand with a water-resistant chemical you create a hydrophobic substance that can clean up oil spills, give you awesome visuals, and quite possibly hours of fun.

Huw James took a trek up Mount Etna and decided to show us what actually happens when a volcano erupts!

With a little bit of help from Dr Suze Kundu and using a simple demonstration heating a glass beaker of wax, stone, sand and water we can see what happens when a volcano erupts.

We can actually tell a lot about a volcano looking at the lava that comes out. If the lava is quite dense and thick we know it contains a lot of the compound silica. If it is less dense it has less silica and spreads out a lot more.

Thick lava will generally erupt from one vent and follow one flow down the side of the volcano. Thinner lava, lava that is less dense, generally erupts from the surrounding magma chambers and flows in many different channels.

A scientist takes a big risk to get a lava sample from the rim of a lava lake.

A great VSauce video that introduces colors and how they work. It also addresses why the sky is blue.
