      Ohh… cool question! I think it’d be a reaction I did with Chlorine, we had to really closely monitor and control how quickly we added the chlorine, as well as control the temperature to stop it overheating and perhaps blowing up the vessel!

      Chlorine is one of the most reactive elements on the periodic table, so I was quite worried about working with it, but it all worked out in the end!
