The oscillating Iodine Clock
Remember 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.
