@Elementary Productions: Gas phase chemiluminescence with P4

A suspension of White Phosphorus and Mineral Oil in Carbon Disulfide is made. Some drops of this suspension is placed on a piece of paper, causing the Carbon Disulfide to evaporate. This exposes the White Phosphorus to atmospheric Oxygen. As the White Phosphorus is covered by a thin layer of Mineral Oil, this modifies its reaction with Oxygen, making chemiluminescence in the gas phase clearly visible.

chemiluminescence gas phase white phosphorus phosphorous carbon disulfide mineral oil awesome chemistry interesting experiment cool chemical
