4th experiment
"Volcano explosion"
Our last experiment concerns volcano explosion. You will need baking soda, a bottle, food colour and vinegar. We placed some of baking soda into a boottle covered by a gofre paper. We added red food colour and then poured in some of the vinegar. The eruption began rapidly. Why? The baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is a base while the vinegar (acetic acid) is an acid. When they react together they form carbonic acid which is very unstable, it instantly breaks apart into water and carbon dioxide, which creates all the fizzing as it escapes the solution.
We repeated also the experiment with a giant orange Pomelo.

"Sorting snowmen"
First each class created a snowman with soda and water.. We poured in a bowl soda, added a little water and mixed them with our hands.Then we made eyes and nose with different materials. We put each snowman in the freezer for 24 hours.
We put all the snowmen in a tray and asked the children who was the tallest snowman and the shortest. They put them in a row according their height.
Then we poured vinegar in each snowman and watched what happened. They melted just like the real snowmen.
