Happy (Belated) Canada Day!

This past weekend was Canada Day. And tomorrow, for Americans, is Independence Day. Common to both of these holidays is celebrations that demonstrate the best use of gunpowder. What I mean to say is FIREWORKS! Without chemistry there would be no fireworks so to share a little about the chemistry of fireworks let me introduce you to a video from the American Chemical Society. Chemistry of Fireworks.
Enjoy!
