How Stuff Works

Today we began our Inquiry - 'How Stuff Works'.

We spent the morning doing a science experiment.

WHAT YOU NEED:
  • White  vinegar
  • Baking  soda
  • A balloon
  • Two  funnels
  • One  bottle


First we had to put baking soda in the balloon through the funnel. Through the other funnel you put vinegar in the bottle and then put the balloon on the top of the bottle.  Tip the baking soda into the vinegar.  What happened was the gas blew up the balloon.  The gas name was carbon dioxide.  It bubbled up because of a reaction between the acid (vinegar) and the alkaline (baking soda).
