| What is a mud volcano? How often do they ignite when they erupt? Posted: 05 Jul 2021 05:17 PM PDT Inspired by the news of a mud volcano erupting in Azerbaijan, I starting wondering how they form, and how they erupt. If they're not typically associated with igneous volcanoes, how do they pressurize? Under what circumstances do you end up with a mud volcano – or one that ignites? Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 06 Jul 2021 04:00 AM PDT Hi Reddit! Let me introduce myself. I'm a chemistry professor, science entertainer, and author that uses a theatrical and hands-on approach to teaching, all while trying to inspire students across the world to fall in love with science. You may have seen me in a blue lab coat and red-bottomed heels on The Today Show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, NBC Nightly News, the Wendy Williams Show, the Rachael Ray Show, or Late Night with Stephen Colbert, where I try to make each explosion bigger than the last one. I travel the country collecting science advocates to be part of my STEM army, and we're working together to break down the image of the stereotypical scientist. Here's where 70 female scientists broke the record for the most thunderclouds at one time: https://thedailytexan.com/2020/02/10/kate-the-chemist-cbs-mission-unstoppable-show-taping/. I've published seven children's books, including the bestseller The Big Book of Experiments, and I cannot wait to hit the road next week to promote my new book It's Elemental: The Hidden Chemistry in Everything. In the book, I highlight the ways we experience chemistry in our everyday lives; starting with breakfast and an early morning workout, to going to the beach and then happy hour, and finally ending the day by analyzing the science in the bedroom. It's my first nonfiction book for adults, and I'm so excited to share it with you all! Want to see some explosions? Check out my first visit to the Today Show (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9W9DCSABs2U) or the time I scared the crap out of Stephen Colbert (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nELtaMKMP8o). Learn more at www.katethechemist.com or follow me on Instagram (@katethechemist), TikTok (@katethechemist), and Twitter (@k8thechemist). See you all at 11AM Central/Noon ET (16 UT), ask me anything!

| How does diborane (B2H6) exist? Posted: 06 Jul 2021 05:50 AM PDT The hydrogens having two bonds is really perplexing to me and it kinda breaks what we are taught at school about bonding and orbitals. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 06 Jul 2021 07:28 AM PDT Let's just say for example a 1x1 ft cube of a metal is heated to the point where it physically grows. Is there a relationship between its specific heat and the new volume? Any defined formulas? [link] [comments]  |
| Why does a faster moving boat create smaller waves? Posted: 06 Jul 2021 05:10 AM PDT With two boats of the same size and hull shape, why does it seem as though if one were moving faster it would create smaller waves compared to a slower moving one? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 06 Jul 2021 07:08 AM PDT i was wondering if virus like HIV would be completely gone and there is no chance for it to come back ;\ [link] [comments]  |
| How do we know that human is the only natural host of smallpox? Posted: 06 Jul 2021 12:35 AM PDT There are millions of species around the world how can we be sure that human is the only natural host of smallpox? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 06 Jul 2021 03:44 AM PDT I'm very curious about whether the Cascadia and/or San Andreas fault lines will go off in the next decade or longer, and if they'll go off together or not. I've seen Novas and even a Drain the Oceans about them, and given that there has been an increase in pacific rim activity, I'm just curious? How long until 'The Big One'? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 04 Jul 2021 06:12 PM PDT A moon landing denier (ugh) is telling me that because of this law, the moon would be way too bright to land on, because at its surface the light would be 15,500,000,000 times more intense (that number is a direct quote). Obviously that isn't the case lol. So does this inverse-square law apply to the moon or not? How exactly does this work? Lol I know that the law applies to point sources, but I'm not sure if the moon is a point source of light. But yeah, thanks for reading! Help would be greatly appreciated :) [link] [comments]  |
| How is biochar created through pyrolysis? Posted: 04 Jul 2021 01:53 PM PDT I've learned about this soil amendment that is both beneficial to plant growth in poor soil quality and also as a decent amount of carbon sequestration(compared to planting trees). But the creation of it puzzles me. They say its formed from a low oxygen burning, yet how do you actually combust anything in a low oxygen environment? One of the main 'triangles of fire' they told us about in basic fire fighting was oxygen, fuel and heat. Remove one and the fire goes out ? [link] [comments]  |
