Message:


in my chemistry class last year we watched a video with Mr. Science and he 
mixed some liquids together, put the beaker on a hot plate and stirred 
it.  the mixture kept changing colors.  i think the three colors were, 
black, green and one other i cant remember.  i just wanted to know the 
name of the reaction.  i think it was a "something-something oscillating 
reaction"    thanks.
