Perform Your Own Science Experiment

Do you have some baking soda and vinegar at home? If so, you can make your own....

What you'll need:
  • Baking soda
  • Vinegar
  • A container
  • Paper towels (for clean up)
Instructions:
  1. Place some baking soda into your container.
  2. Pour in some vinegar.
  3. Watch your volcano erupt!

How does it work?
The baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is a base, while the vinegar (acetic acid) is an acid. When mixed, they react together to form carbonic acid. It instantly breaks apart into water and carbon dioxide, which creates all the fizzing as it escapes the solution.
