By the way smuv, how did you make ethyl chloride so cheaply that you just combust it? ![:o](./images/smilies/shocked.gif)
Seems it has more useful properties other than burning it for a blue flame ![:P](./images/smilies/tongue.gif)
You only get the grey flame with ethyl nitrite if you start with potassium nitrite, with sodium nitrite I just get a yellow flame. Bubbling gives
small aerosols, with Na+, wich ruin the grey color.
You can see it here in one of my videos on Youtube:
