This is an image of the Atlantic ocean which is huge. Now in your head imagine it being measured in teaspoons. That would be a very big number. Did you know that one teaspoon of water has more atoms than there are teaspoons in the Atlantic ocean? In one teaspoon there are 200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 water molecules, and each of these is made of three atoms. If you lined all of these atoms end to end you would get 50 billion km which is 10 times the width of our solar system.

Potassium Permanganate and Glycerin
Potassium Permanganate and Glycerin are two chemical compounds that are used for different stuff. Potassium Permanganate (an oxidant) is usually used for medicine for all kinds of stuff to koi pond treatment, while Glycerin is used for sanitary items such as tooth paste to shampoo and sugar related snacks. By themselves these two stuff seem pretty normal until they meet which leads into a combustion that can be used to make a great fire. The only downside to this combustion chemical reaction is that it only reacts at 70 degrees or higher. Here is a fresh video of it in action.
