Introduction to the Experiment: "Fire That Doesn't Burn"

Overview of Safety Precautions

• The experiment titled "Fire That Doesn't Burn" is introduced, emphasizing the importance of safety and adult supervision for minors.

• Participants are advised to have water on hand in case of accidents, although such occurrences are deemed unlikely if instructions are followed correctly.

Required Materials

• A list of materials needed for the experiment includes dish soap, water, a lighter or matches, a candle, aerosol spray, and a container for mixing.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Solution

• Begin by selecting a deep enough container to accommodate your hand. Fill it with water and add an ample amount of dish soap to create bubbles.

Lighting the Candle

• Light the candle carefully and place it sideways on a stable surface that can support it.

Creating Foam and Conducting the Experiment

• Shake the aerosol spray to activate its components. Invert it over the soapy water solution and press down to generate foam.

• Submerge your hand in the soapy foam before passing it through the flame of the candle. This demonstrates how fire does not burn when proper precautions are taken.
