How I Made Rocket Fuel from Salt

The first 500 people to sign up via my link https://skl.sh/amateurchemistry03251 will get a month's free trial of Skillshare! Get started today! In this video, I explain how to build a large chlorate electrolysis cell and demonstrate lots of cool experiments with potassium chlorate. In the process, I really appreciate platinum and am saved by a bowl of frozen salmon.
