2012-02-16 14 Dailymotion

the gallium in the mold has solidified into a spoon! it sounds just like a regular spoon and melts to a liquid puddle in seconds. It's not an acid in which the spoon melts but simply hot water. Several spoon molds and Gallium metal (99,99% pure) available to make gallium spoons like this one! Specifically for demonstration purposes (chemistry/physics classes)
