Can you give a purpose for a baking soda volcano?

Baking soda volcanoes are normally used to demonstrate how the pressure increase that occurs in a volcano's magma chamber can cause a volcanic eruption to occur. This is because the mixture of baking soda and vinegar causes carbon dioxide gas to be produced which causes a pressure increase in the model volcano as well as causing the mixture to foam. The rapid increase in volume and pressure forces the mixture out of the top of the model volcano which is a useful analogy for the process that occurs in a real volcano.


What is an acid volcano?

A volcano formed from acid lava, which is viscous and solidifies near the vent, therefore it has steep slopes. Since lava solidifies near the vent, it might block the vent. When pressure builds up and there will be a violent eruption. They are also known as stratovolcanoes See also: Composite volcanoes and Shield volcanoes


Why does the homemade volcano erupt?

Homemade volcanoes are made from vinegar and baking soda. It "erupts" because as the vinegar and baking soda come into contact with each other, a chemical reaction takes place which causes it to fizz.


How do you write a conclusion for a project named 'Volcanoes and Earthquakes'?

the conclusion is how the volcano erpts faster after putting the baking soda , and vinegar into the volcano


What is an a example of a volcano?

Mount St. Helens, USA. Mt.St. Helens To show how volcanoes erupt you take a cup and put baking soda in the cup and red or orange vinegar and you will find the baking soda and vinegar bubbling and rising to the top of the cup and that is an example of magma flowing through a volcano.

What is best to clean vegetables...vinegar or baking soda or a combination?

i think baking soda but don't use a combination of vinegar and baking soda or else you will get a volcano eruption =) hope this helps Katie xxx

What ratio of vinegar to baking soda producs the best volcano eruption?

I think that the vinegarr and baking soda will work together and make the volcano erupt

What can you use to make an volcanic eruption besides baking soda and vinegar?

Assuming you mean a "chemical volcano", the most commonly used ingredients are baking soda and vinegar, though just about any acid and carbonate will work.


What chemicals are used in a volcano experiment?

An volcanic eruption is NOT caused by a chemical reaction. It is caused by a PHYSICAL change. Gasses dissolved in the magma effervesce as the pressure on the magma drops in proximity to the land surface.


What is the control group to the baking soda volcano?

The control group is the vinegar and the volcano
