it has this wax called hydromonic substance that make the lava move
A testable question for homemade lava lamps could be: "How does the type of oil used affect the height of the lava flow in a homemade lava lamp?" This question allows for experimentation by varying the oil types (such as vegetable oil, olive oil, or mineral oil) and measuring the resulting lava flow height, providing quantifiable data for analysis.
vegetable oil
For homemade lava lamps, you can use vegetable oil or mineral oil as the base oil due to their density and non-water solubility. Combine this with water and food coloring for the lava effect. When you add an effervescent tablet, such as Alka-Seltzer, it creates bubbles that rise and fall, mimicking a lava lamp's movement.

yes they do have troubles making lava lamps
No, lava lamps contain a special type of wax that is heated by a light bulb, causing it to rise and fall in a mesmerizing pattern. The term "lava lamp" comes from the lamp's resemblance to flowing lava, but there is no actual lava involved.
They have lava in them
No, lava lamps are not acidic. The liquid inside lava lamps is typically a mixture of water and a type of mineral oil, which do not possess acidic properties.
No, Krypton is not used in lava lamps. Lava lamps typically contain a mixture of wax and a colored liquid, which is heated by an incandescent bulb to create the lava-like movement.
Homemade lava lamps demonstrate convection through the movement of the colored liquid blobs that rise and fall due to changes in temperature. The blobs rise to the top as they warm up from the base, then cool and sink back down. Radiation is shown through the light source at the base heating up the blobs, causing them to glow and emit light as they move.
The easiest ones to make are flammable and dangerous and the colors bleed into each other badly, so you should probably stick to buying them.
it depends on which lava lamp u get
