NI3, Nitrogen Triiodide, Explodes

  • 17 years ago
http://www.FreeScienceLectures.com Nitrogen triiodide, also called nitrogen iodide, is the chemical compound with the formula NI3.

It is a sensitive contact explosive: small quantities explode with a gunpowder-like snap when touched even lightly, releasing a purple cloud of iodine vapor.

In this video the NI3 is lightly touched with a wooden stick and it explodes.
