DNA Sodium Aqueous Kinetic Energy

Chemistry in action — crystallisation as kinetic energy. The DNA Sodium Aqueous Kinetic Energy Demonstration showcases the remarkable supersaturation phenomenon of sodium acetate in aqueous solution: cool a saturated solution below its crystallisation temperature and it remains liquid — in a metastable state. Touch the surface or add a seed crystal and the entire solution flash-crystallises in seconds, releasing the latent heat of crystallisation as the system jumps to a lower energy state. This is 'hot ice' — solid material that forms rapidly and is warm to the touch.

A compelling demonstration of thermodynamic concepts: metastable equilibria, nucleation kinetics, and the distinction between internal energy and temperature. Suitable for chemistry education and science demonstrations.
