The oscillating Iodine Clock
Apr. 3rd, 2009 08:03 pmRemember the iodine clock?  Two clear solutions are mixed and at first there is no visible reaction, but after a short time delay, the liquid suddenly turns to a shade of dark blue.  I remember this from chemistry class, and I always thought it was cool.
I see that it was only, as they say, the rudiments of coolness.
The official name is the Briggs-Rauscher reaction.
