Important Setup Notes:
This demonstration requires a 24 hour notice.
This demonstration requires about 1 L of liquid N2.
Setup and Procedure:
- Fill the bottle with liquid nitrogen.
- Pre-cool the small dewar by pouring in about 200 mL of liquid nitrogen.
- Allow the nitrogen to stop boiling, and then pour it out.
- Lower the bottle into the dewar. After 20 minutes, about 50 mL of liquid air will have condensed in the small dewar.
- On the higher side of the steel channel relative to the magnets, pour the liquid air into the channel.
- The oxygen component of the liquid air will be trapped in the magnetic field while the rest runs off.
Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:
Exercise great care when handling the liquid N2 - it can cause severe frost bite!
NEVER put a cap on the container containing the liquid N2! Doing so would create a very DANGEROUS device that will explode sending shards of plastic into the audience.
Discussion:
Discuss the physics behind the demonstration, explaining some of the various steps of the demonstration when appropriate.
