High School Chemistry
Micro-scale chemistry
Lead (II) nitrate is a harmful substance which should only be used in small quantities. It should not be inhaled or ingested. Avoid contact with skin.

Go micro-scale! Reduce the environmental impact of chemistry lessons.
Photography note:
Apologies for the out of focus segment early on due to my Olympus camera focus hunting whilst shooting the movie of the experiment. This is an annoying phenomenon with the autofocus system of some cameras.
I prefer not to edit movies of experiments so that a realistic estimate of the time involved in carrying out the experiment can be ascertained. Thus, the out of focus segment was left in the 5 minute movie here.
