Thermite is a mixture of iron oxide and aluminum powders. When ignited, thermite reacts extremely exothermically to produce molten iron metal and aluminum oxide at over 3000 °F. The procedure of making thermite as well as the chemistry behind the reaction will be explained, followed by a large-scale thermite demonstration.
