Question

im looking to make that sand stuff you see in movies, when you throw it on a fire it kind sparks and flashes

also i need to know how to make fire change color like green or red

Answer 1

I know adding salt can make the colour of fire bright yellow as sodium in the salt make the fire turn bright yellow.

I did some research and found out the following:

U can change the colour of fire by adding different chemicals into it. Here is the table:

Carmine (Dark Red) Lithium chloride
Red Strontium chloride
Orange Calcium chloride (a bleaching powder)
Yellow Sodium chloride (table salt) or Sodium carbonate
Yellowish Green Borax (Sodium Borate)
Green Copper sulfate
Blue Copper chloride
Violet 3 parts Potassium sulfate, 1 part Potassium nitrate (saltpeter)
Purple Potassium chloride
White Magnesium sulfate (Epsom salts)

There is also a step-by-step instructions on how to change the colour of fire into green at http://chemistry.about.com/od/funfireprojects/a/greenfire.htm

Answer 2

No, the Chiapa can't be switched over to fireside 5.fifty six/.223. CMMG and Spike's Tactical the two manufacture .22lr chambered rifles which use a typical "Mil Spec" type decrease receiver. you could take a CMMG M422 or Spike's ST-22 .22lr rifle and turn out the top receiver with any conventional "Mil Spec" receiver based top which incorporates a .223, .3 hundred AAC blackout, etc.

Answer 3

I used to coat pinecones with school glue and dip into iron filings. Makes some pretty neat colors when burnt.

Answer 4

if you take copper tubing and stick garden hose over it or inside it, it will make the fire turn blue and green. you don't cut up the garden hose. you take equal legnths of each and slip one over the other. don't know why it works but it is pretty cool.
