And now let us hear the story 1280 02:08:33,958 --> 02:08:37,541 of this reaction as told in the language of chemistry. 1281 02:08:37,625 --> 02:08:42,041 So, we mix ethanol with boric acid and sulfuric acid… 1282 02:08:42,125 --> 02:08:44,875 Her lectures are immensely popular. 1283 02:08:44,958 --> 02:08:49,708 …triethyl borate produces a green flame which is… 1284 02:08:49,791 --> 02:08:51,625 Cool to the touch! 1285 02:08:57,083 --> 02:08:58,458 Cool to the touch. 1286 02:09:01,458 --> 02:09:03,916 -Please be careful, promise? -Of course. 1287 02:09:07,041 --> 02:09:08,166 Let's go. 1288 02:09:11,250 --> 02:09:14,375 Good.
