Volcano Eruption Project - Fun Science Fair Project by Vanessa

Baking Soda & Vinegar Volcano
Use baking soda and vinegar to create an awesome chemical reaction! Watch as it rapidly fizzes over the container and make sure you've got some towels ready to clean up.

What you'll need:

Baking Soda (make sure it's not baking powder)
Vinegar
A container to hold everything and avoid a big mess!
Paper towels or a cloth (just in case)


Instructions:

Place some of the baking soda into your container.
Pour in some of the vinegar
Watch as the reaction takes place!


What's happening?

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.

For extra effect you can make a realistic looking volcano. It takes some craft skills but it will make your vinegar and baking soda eruptions will look even more impressive!

I did this for my science fair and I won 1st prize in that.

[leia]

So what type of eruption is it? Strombolian or what?

[yamini_vashisth]

Have you made volcano from bottle and newspaper?

[pradeeppandey]

Can you made video of full volcano making

[pummykumari]

I have a question, what is the base of your project?

[sangeetasingh]

Can you pls tell how did you did that plant thing on your project

[-olivine]

I have a question does the eruption happen once or can this be erupted multiple times in the same volcano

[symphonilorde]

I think that the whole design was AWESOME!
and I really like the reaction because like I have been searching for a good reaction all day and I think I found it!

[znnkyl]

What materials did you use to make that volcano?

[RoseXthetic-zt]

Look I have to do it in 24 classes can we do explosion 26 times or only one time

[siyabiyani_]

How did u make the volcano is it with a bottle or a glass

[renukajainrenukajain]

Ingredients for this experiment please

[nareshhanda]

I am also making a volcano in my project as I decorate it like this one

[-olivine]

I doing this for my science fair after tomorrow

[hema]

I'll do this for my science exhibition

[emetissacharlin]

This is what i am doing for my science fair

[subodhsinha]

Can I do this reaction more than one time??

[ushaagrawal]

Woww
I will make this
In mah school project
