If a beaker full of vinegar and baking soda is tilted over a lit candle with out spilling any liquid solution out then why does the flame go out?

When vinegar and baking soda mix, they react to form an gas called carbon dioxide (CO2) which is heavier than air. The flame needs oxygen (O2) to burn. When the beaker is tilted, it spills the heavy carbon dioxide gas over the flame and suffocates it.

Why do you titrate into a flask and not a beaker?
Because you can swirl it without it spilling over the top
Add Bicarbonate of soda to a beaker of liquid and make a lot of gas bubbles which liquid was using?
Vinegar, when added to bicarbonate of soda (or baking soda), will produce the described effect.
What is it called when the solution settle to the bottom of a beaker?
hotter
Why must the stem of the funnel touch the inside surface of the collecting beaker during filtration?
it's done to minimize the mixing of air into the filtered solution. By touching the stem to the collecting beaker, the solution flows into the beaker smoothly rather than splashing into it.
Why beaker used to collect solution should be dry?
Beakers that will be used to collect solutions should be completely dry before use due the possibility of water being able to dilute the solution that will be placed inside of the beaker. If a beaker is not completely dry before collection of a solution, an inacurracy in data results may occur.
What changes in egg when placed in saltwater solution?

What information is needed to track the velocity of an ocean current?
vinegar is added to the beaker of baking soda and water. if the reaction is exothermic, what will happen?

What would happen if a strip of blue litmus paper is placed in a beaker of vinegar?
When a blue litmus paper are put in a solution of baking soda and the conditions are under the basic ph level, it will turn into red. And if a red litmus paper is put under acidic conditions, it will turn into blue.

During titration why use a conical flask and not a beaker?
So you can swirl the contents around without spilling them. =]
Is baking soda an alkaline or acid?
Yes. And if you add it too vinigar it makes smoke. You take a balloon and fill 1/5 of it with baking powder. You then only set the top of the balloon around a beaker filled 1/4 of the way with vinegar. Then hold the balloon up right and let the baking powder mix with the vinegar. It will blow up the balloon on it's own. It's actually pretty cool.
How could you determine the effect of temperature of the rate of the chemical reaction between baking soda and vinegar?
For this you would need a stopwatch and the ingredients for the reaction. Now take vinegar in a beaker and keep the stopwatch in one hand. take a pinch of baking soda in the other hand. Now drop it in the vinegar solution and simultaneously start the stopwatch. Note the time taken for the bubbling to stop completely. Now raise the temperature and repeat the same experiment. Do this for 5 set of reading by raising the temperature 5 degrees each time. Now do this by decreasing the temperature 5 degrees. Tabulate the data and think about the answer.
How do you make a small volcano?
MATERIALS: Well first of all get a cylinder beaker, any size you wish. Then molding clay, as well as vinegar, baking soda, food coloring (red, preferred), and paint (brown or gray).DIRECTIONS: Place the cylinder beaker on a flat surface. Then put the molding clay over the surface of the beaker but leave a hole where the mouth of the beaker is. Then paint the clay but THE CLAY HAS TO BE DRIED BEFORE PAINT IS APPLIED! Once that's over, put in 2 tablespoons of baking soda in the hole at the top, also put in a couple of drops of the food coloring. And when ready for the volcano to erupt pour in 3 tablespoons of vinegar fast. SO HAVE IT READY! Have fun and Enjoy!

Would a drop of vinegar sink or float beaker full of glycerin?
sure!!
What is chemical system?
A chemical system consists of the system and the surroundings. If you're dealing with a solution in a beaker, the solution would be the system and the beaker and air would be the surroundings.
