Baking Soda and Vinegar Experiment

What do you need?

• Baking soda 
• Malt vinegar
• 100 mls of hot water
• Measuring cup
• Measuring spoons
• Tall glass cup 

Method:

1. 2 ½ teaspoon of baking soda into the tall glass
2. Pour the hot water in with the baking soda 
3. Get the  measuring cup and pour in 150  mls of malt vinegar
4. Pour your 150 mls of vinegar into the glass and watch as it starts to erupt 

Write 2-3 sentences about how this experiment is similar to an erupting volcano:

Baking soda accommodates carbon dioxide, sodium, oxygen and hydrogen all of those are different kinds of gases. The carbon dioxide and oxygen ( in the baking soda ) splits when it comes into contact with the vinegar. Similar to the baking soda it erupts when it makes contact with the vinegar, volcanoes react and erupt when there’s too much abrasion made by the tectonic plates. When this happens it then allows magma to thrust through the crack in the earth.
