The term "Tutton salt" refers to a large class of chemical compounds that have the general formula:\n\nN2 M (XY4)2 . 6H2O, where \n\nN = K+, Rb+, Cs+, Tl+, or NH4+\nM = Mg++, V++, Cr++, Mn++, Fe++, Co++, Ni++, Cu++, Zn++, Cd++, or Ru++\nXY4 = (SO4)--, (SeO4)--, (BeF4)--, or (CrO4)--\n\nI don't know of any particularly unique application that they are "used to study";  the term simply refers to the class of compounds that shares a common crystal structure with hexahydrated double sulfate salts.

Because of the turpines in the air.  Turpines are a group of chemicals called oleoresins which are found in the sap of conifer trees.  As the tree sap evaporates the Turpines are released into the air resulting in the blue haze that you see.

Hmmm, Tums?  Ahhh...MILK OF MAGNESIA\n\nMagnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2, otherwise known as milk of magnesia, is commonly used as an antacid or a laxative. The mineral form of magnesium hydroxide is known as brucite. Magnesium hydroxide interferes with the absorption of folic acid and iron. The diarrhea caused by magnesium hydroxide carries away much of the body's supply of potassium, and failure to take extra potassium will lead to muscle cramps.\n\nIt has very low solubility in water, and has a Ksp value of 1.5e-11.

The salt that you find in table salt and most processed foods is sodium chloride. Salt in this form has been processed at high temperatures, which changes the molecular structure and removes vital minerals from the salt. Table salt also contains additives, anticaking agents, and even sugar. Excess salt consumption is associated with high blood pressure, fluid retention, heart and kidney disease.\n\nTrash It: Dump out your salt shaker and toss out all other packaged or processed foods with a high sodium content. This should be pretty easy for most people.\n\nStash it: We have been told for years to avoid salt, but following this advice can lead to even more problems. We are all salty on the inside—our blood, sweat, tears, and even our urine—it's all salty. It's important to replenish the salt in our body, using the right salt is what makes all the difference in the world. The best way to put salt back into your body is to use Celtic sea salt. This high quality salt contains over 80 balanced minerals from the sea. Celtic sea salt is essential for maintaining proper fluid balance and utilization in the body. It also normalizes blood pressure, enhances digestion, and nourishes the adrenal glands. Celtic sea salt is available at many natural food stores

potato or any cells soaked in HYPERTONIC 10% salt would be shriveled up, wilted or pickled, and lose water, aka dehydrate.  Technical term is PLASMOLYSIS in plants.  Osmosis of water would go from high water in the plant cells to low water in the space between the cell mbn and the cell wall, and into the beaker potato is soaked in, in an attempt to accomplish equalibrium.\n\nPlants soaked in HYPOTONIC pure water get maximum turgur water pressure and are all nice and firm-rigid from osmotic-turgor pressure, so they are not limp-wilted-pickled.

I believe it is turmeric.  Nothing to base that on except tht a yahoo search for "tummeric" gives results for "turmeric".  Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Salt is an impurity which increases the boiling point of water.  This causes more heat to be supplied to the potato and thus cooks it faster.

You can go to the store and pick up regular table salt.  The sodium in the salt will produce  really cool looking red flame.  Also, calcium containing salts can produce a deep orange/red flame.  You can try tums.  Try grinding it up into a powder form.  Tums usually contains magnesium. I doubt that any salt will burst you into flames!
