1 00:00:11,425 --> 00:00:24,725 Music 2 00:00:24,725 --> 00:00:29,405 For this experiement you will need a cake pan and an old vase 3 00:00:29,405 --> 00:00:32,573 from your moms kitchen cupboard. The case pan is used to 4 00:00:32,573 --> 00:00:39,937 catch the awesomeness you are about it make. You will need a TBSP to use to measure out your baking soda with. 5 00:00:41,787 --> 00:00:48,340 Put about 4 TBSP of baking soda in your vase. There is no real need 6 00:00:48,340 --> 00:00:51,602 to measure out exactly four TBSP of baking soda. 7 00:00:51,602 --> 00:00:55,640 Keeping your TBSP will actually make your explosion bigger and better. 8 00:00:55,988 --> 00:01:00,660 Oh and don't forget to make sure you are using baking soda and not 9 00:01:00,660 --> 00:01:05,610 baking powder. Next pick your favorite color of food coloring. I choose 10 00:01:05,830 --> 00:01:15,005 green and put about 6-8 drops in my vase, I also used glitter to give 11 00:01:15,005 --> 00:01:25,517 to explosion a little sparkle. I chose another one of my favorite colors and adding another heaping TBSP to my vase. 12 00:01:25,644 --> 00:01:36,348 Now here comes the fun part. Use your white vinegar and one measuring cup 13 00:01:36,348 --> 00:01:38,848 Make sure you have your mom and dad help you with 14 00:01:38,848 --> 00:01:43,048 this part because it can get pretty messy and pretty stinky. 15 00:01:43,048 --> 00:01:47,460 Fill up your measuring cup with your vinegar and pour it into the vase. 16 00:01:47,460 --> 00:01:53,577 And let the magic begin. This explosion happens because the chemical reaction. 17 00:01:53,577 --> 00:01:57,988 The baking soda is a base while the vinegar is an acid. 18 00:01:57,988 --> 00:02:02,068 When mixed together they become unstable and instantly break apart 19 00:02:02,068 --> 00:02:10,436 into carbon dioxide and water, this creates all the fizzing. After your explosion fizzles out make sure to help 20 00:02:10,436 --> 00:02:13,108 your mom and dad clean up your mess. 21 00:02:13,108 --> 00:02:31,080 music 22 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,812 For this experiment you will need to place your 23 00:02:32,812 --> 00:02:37,760 mason jar on a flat surface like your kitchen table or your counter. 24 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,080 Next take your soda and pour it into your jar up to about where 25 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:51,000 my finger is at. 3/4's of the way. Then take your box of raisins 26 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:57,032 open them and pour about 6-8 into your soda. 27 00:02:57,032 --> 00:03:03,104 Now let me explain how and why your raisins are dancing. 28 00:03:03,104 --> 00:03:09,732 The raisins are more dense than the soda so at first they sink 29 00:03:09,732 --> 00:03:11,704 to the bottom of the jar. The soda releases the carbon dioxide bubbles. 30 00:03:11,704 --> 00:03:16,768 When these bubbles stick to the raisins, they lift because of the increase in 31 00:03:16,768 --> 00:03:22,064 boyancy. When the raisins reach the surface, the bubbles pop and the carbon 32 00:03:22,064 --> 00:03:26,724 dioxide escapes into the air. This causes the raisins to lose boyancy 33 00:03:26,724 --> 00:03:31,324 and sink. The rising and sinking continues until the soda 34 00:03:31,324 --> 00:03:35,984 loses carbon dioxide and goes flat. 35 00:03:35,984 --> 00:03:40,772 Now we will do the same experiment we just did but this 36 00:03:40,772 --> 00:03:46,004 time we will just use plain tap water. Fill your jar up at 3/4 37 00:03:46,004 --> 00:03:49,992 the way with your tap water, just like you did with your soda, next 38 00:03:49,992 --> 00:03:56,972 take your raisins and pour about 6-8 into the water and watch. 39 00:03:56,972 --> 00:04:01,448 The raisins do not dance because the water does not contain 40 00:04:01,448 --> 00:04:03,588 carbon dioxide like the soda did. 41 00:04:03,588 --> 00:04:07,728 music
