Balloon: Carbon Dioxide and Chemical Reaction
There are many different ingredients in a kitchen that causes a chemical reaction with baking soda. This experiment was designed to test 4 kitchen ingredients(Omega oil, water, lemon juice, and vinegar) mixed with baking soda, to see which one will cause a balloon to expand. It was hypothesized that baking soda mixed with lemon juice and vinegar would cause the balloon to expand. Using these ideals the experiment was completed and the data was recorded. It was decided that the hypothesis was correct. Baking soda mixed with vinegar and lemon juice caused the balloon to expand. There was no reaction with the balloon when the baking soda was poured into the water or oil. The moment the baking soda hit the vinegar and lemon juice, the balloon started to expand.Adding the lemon juice to the baking soda creates a chemical reaction. The baking soda is a base, while the lemon juice is an acid, when the two combine they create carbon dioxide (CO2). The gas rises up and escapes through the soft drink bottle, it doesn't however escape the balloon, pushing it outwards and blowing it up. What happen when I tested the experiment was me and my mommy had test it out and I found that two of my ingredients did not work and two did work. The one that did not work was water, and oil. The two that did expand the bWhat kitchen ingredient’s mix with baking soda will cause the balloon to expand.

Baking soda mix with vinegar and lemon juice will cause the balloon to expand more.

The step-by step the researcher needs are first you got to use [4] 10oz plastic water bottle, [4] balloons 1/2 cup of oil, 1/2 cup of lemon juice, 1/2 cup of baking soda, 1/2 cup of vinegar .with oil the baking soda sat at the bottom foam up a little,I use ½ cup of baking soda 1/2 cup of omega oil . And with the lemon juice it sat the bottom and foam up then it expand. with the vinegar I use ½ tsp of baking soda And vinegar expand the balloon .the second time I tried it I had to add a

    The results show that before placing the Alka-Seltzer tablets Into the conical flask the mass does not slowly change until the Alka-Seltzer tablets are released into the water to start the chemical reaction (tablets dissolving) and as the tablets dissolve, gasses are released (carbon dioxide), which makes the total mass increase. In test one without the balloon the total mass increased by 4.88grams and in test two with the balloon the total mass increased by 7.73grams, this shows that when the balloon is placed over the conical flask that gases from the tablets are released and concealed within the balloon and greatly increases the total mass.…

    In the Stoichiometry Challenge Lab we compared the theoretical results of the reaction between sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) with the actual data we found. I hypothesised that If the mole ratio between Na2SO4 and H2SO4 is 1:1 then when I react 0.5 grams of Na2SO4 (reactant with H2SO4) I should get 0.669 grams of Na2SO4. The actual reaction between .05 grams of Na2CO3 and 5 mL of of H2SO4 produced 0.79g of Na2SO4. When I were testing the reaction, I measured out the reactants and mixed them together. I then observed the reaction and heated the solution to remove the liquid. We then found the mass or the product to be the .79g of Na2SO4 . When I compared the results I found that my hypothesis was disproven based on the…

    For this experiment my hypothesis was correct. The purpose of this experiment was achieved by observing and finding out the characteristics of each substance. The sugar turned brown and smelled good when heated, salt turned black and smelled like burnt rubber when heated, dirt turned to mud when water was added, and baking soda started to bubble when vinegar was added. According to table 1 the data shows that the unknown substance had similar characteristics to both sugar and dirt. And so to find out if my hypothesis was correct or not experiments were carried out based on tests that were characteristics of either sugar or dirt. One experiment was heating the unknown substance to check if it would start drying up and bubbling brown. The other was adding water to test if it would turn into mud. Some mistakes that could be improved in the experiment next time is- making sure not to pour a lot of salt into the beaker when heating it, since there was a lot of salt when heating it the smell was more nastier and shocking. Also when heating the dirt not to let it burn for a long time because when washing it, it was hard to get some of the dirt…

    How baking soda works: When moisture is added to the batter, an acidic component (for example: yoghurt, chocolate, buttermilk or honey etc.) The chemical reaction that results is the production of bubbles of carbon dioxide which widen under oven temperatures causing the baked product to grow in size. Baking soda is a single-agent which means that the chemical reaction begins immediately when the ingredients are added so recipes with baking soda have to be made immediately or they will become useless and become flat.…

    All the materials you will need are very simple house hold; scissors, balloon, vinegar, baking soda, rubber band, empty bottle, clear wrap, straight pin, marker, thin piece of wood, drinking straws, and duct tape. One of the first steps is to make the rocket fuel the key component in this rocket. I began with placing ¼ or 1/3 of vinegar in a normal size bottle, after that you will make the baking soda bomb. You take a piece of clear wrap and place a good amount of baking soda in a square piece wrap up all the corners and wrap it up tight so it won’t come undone on accident, place it to the side for later use. You also need to a balloon and marker and straight pin for the next part. You will take the balloon and cut off a part where it will fit over the mouth of the bottle easily. Then take your marker and mark a spot where it is directly in the middle of the top and then use your straight pin and poke a hole in the top. Once this is all prepared lay the balloon and a rubber band over to the side separately. Once everything is ready you need to build a launcher, you can use a thin piece of wood lay on the ground at a 45 degree angle. You should attach a drinking straw on to the bottle to hold it in to place on the wood. After all is in place put the Baking soda bomb in to the bottle of vinegar and quickly put the balloon and rubber band on the bottle. Then place it on the piece of wood, you will only have a few seconds to do this entire thing so act fast. When you do this project you will need to be very careful and work fast because if you don’t watch out it will go off in your hands or worse your face. Be careful to follow it all very closely or it all could go…

    I believe that it created a chemical reaction because the results of the tea test were different. In one tube, the tea mixed with the cool baking soda to create a clear light brown mixture, in the heated tube, the baking soda was hardened and created a murky brown-green mixture. Also, while heating the tube, a gas filled the collecting bottle.…

    The first step in this experiment was to ask a question. My question was what is the identity of the six unknown substances? The second step was to create a hypothesis based on what I already know about each unknown substance. Third step was to test my hypotheses by using six methods. The first method was to determine the color of each substance. The second method I used was to calculate the density of each substance. I did this by first estimating the volume and then weighing each substance with a digital scale. To calculate the density I divided the mass by volume. The third method is to use the magnifying lens and look at the shape of each substance particle. Along with determining the shape I also recorded the texture and smell for each substance. The last step was to text the solubility of each substance. I did this by mixing each substance in 6 different test tubes with 5 ml of distill water. I shook each tube to see if the substance dissolved. After completing all 6 steps…

    The first step to blowing a huge bubble is to find the right kind of gum. The best types of gum are Hubba Bubba, Big League Chew, and Dubble Bubble. Some types of gum don't work as well as others like trident or orbit. Once you have the right type of gum, you have to unwrap the gum and put it into your mouth. You have to have the gum in your mouth for about 3-4 minutes before you blow the bubble, depending on what type of gum you have.…
