7. SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS FOR ALL

  • The pupils will choose an experiment to share with their partners. They will explain and make it and upload the results here.

    The 5th-grade students worked collaboratively in small groups to organize, perform and present their experiment about the water and the air! They really enjoyed it! Here are some examples of our work:

    Inflate ballons with baking soda and vinegar

    How you do it:

    Use a funnel to add 1/3 cup baking soda to the inside of a balloon.

    Fill a plastic bottle with approximately 1 cup vinegar.

    Attach the balloon to the mouth of the plastic bottle, then lift the balloon upright so the baking soda falls and causes the reaction.

    The science behind it:

    So how does it work? The vinegar and the baking soda mix together to make an acid-base reaction. The reaction creates carbon dioxide gas that bubbles up from the mixture. The gas expands up and out of the bottle and inflates the balloon.

     

    Another cool thing about these balloons is that carbon dioxide is heavier than air, so when you drop the balloon, you’ll notice that it falls to the ground faster than a regular balloon filled with air! (So no, these balloons definitely don’t float!)
