    (*) According to the Bank of England, under the Currency & Banknotes Act 1928 it is illegal to deface our banknotes (by printing, writing or impressing upon them words, letters or figures, etc.), although the question of whether or not to prosecute in individual cases is up to the police and the courts.

    White Phosphorus: https://youtu.be/U6_-EUcswSc

    NOTE from The Prof: The equation in the video is just one possible reaction. Under conditions as extreme as this, several different oxides or phosphorus could be formed (most likely a mixture of them). This is also a very dangerous and sensitive reaction. We have deliberately not shown too much detail and encourage people NOT to try it themselves.
