When I first started teaching, there was a story within the dept. staff of about a decade before where a pupil got some particularly nasty potassium burns.
There was also a craze in the states a fair while back where you would buy an industrial size lump of it and get your mate to drive bloody fast past a lake whilst you lobbed it in out of the sun roof.... Think bouncing bomb with multiple detonations and lightning like flashes. Think you can still get the vids on youtube.
I remember the days - putting in too big a lump, stuff spattered all over the inside of the fume cupboard with a bang much bigger than I was expecting.I managed to set fire to my school bag when I was a student teacher. I was doing a demo of potassium in water and put too large a piece. It spat, popped, burst into flames and jumped out of the bowl and straight into my bag!

Apparently he nicked a lump from the lesson and shoved it in his pocket, as we all know, it's stored in oil to stop it reacting with moisture unwantedly, so he was ok at first.
As the day wore on though, the oil wore off until at lunch as he played football and got a bit of a sweat on it started to react, where it resided in his trouser pocket..
Needless to say, I imagine potassium and water reacting next to peter and the twins wasn't comfortable.
Individuals chucking little bits in aren't as spectacular as the US government disposing of its wartime stocks of sodium in a lake...

any specific technique i could apply in my exams as a bit of a slow coach normally?Smartarse time...
When I sat my finals for the radiography exams, the electrolytic recovery of silver was the big topic.
Using a simple diagram and chemical equation I could answer the question in about 5 minutes and guarantee full marks... thus gaining fifteen minutes for the other questions
