Jan Smolek, Martina Mrkvičková, Pavel Konečný - Secrets of candles - Christmas get-together with a candle and Michael Faraday's book
The Chemical History of a Candle is a name of a book series about the chemistry and physics of candle flames. This series contains six books/lectures Michael Faraday lectured in The Royal Institution of Great Britain in 1848. It is a Christmas series for young people. Faraday stated that people at home with kids could do some of the presented experiments. If, in 1848, children could experiment, why wouldn't we try these experiments in 2022? At our Christmas get-together, we will endeavor into Michael Faraday's experiments.
The lecture will be streaming online through MS Teams from lecture room F2, where you can attend personally and enjoy a cup of coffee. Click the blue button below for more information and a link to the online stream.
