What happens if mothballs get heated?
Heating mothballs can cause them to sublimate, releasing toxic fumes containing chemicals like naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene. Inhaling these fumes can lead to symptoms like headache, dizziness, nausea, and respiratory irritation. It is important to follow safety precautions and use mothballs as directed to prevent exposure to these harmful substances.
What happens when mothballs are added to baking soda and vinegar?
This demonstration actually works better when the mothballs are added to a clear soda drink (e.g. 7-Up). The mothballs by themselves are just a little bit denser than the liquid, so they sink to the bottom. As carbon dioxide bubbles accumulate on the outside of the mothballs they eventually become buoyant and slowly rise to the top. While at the top the bubbles break and the mothballs sink again. This will repeat until the liquid runs out of carbon dioxide. As the mothballs are not soluble in water, if you use a clear soda drink you can still drink it when you are done (after removing the mothballs so you won't risk swallowing one and choking), but it of course will be somewhat "flat".

Why do mothballs dance?
Assuming you mean how mothballs dance in certain solutions, I can describe to you one way in which you can make mothballs dance. When vinegar and baking soda combine, they form a gas called carbon dioxide (which is the fizz in sparkly drinks like coke, champagne and soda). If you fill a jar halfway with water, and mix in about 2 tablespoons of baking soda, drop in a few mothballs, and then mix in about 2 tablespoons of vinegar, you will see the mothballs dance in the water! What's happening is the formed gas, carbon dioxide (or CO2), reaches and coats the mothballs and causes them to float up, and as they fall down after the gas has reached the surface, they collect even more bubbles which causes them to float up again, creating a "dancing mothball" display. I hope this answers your question at least partially.
What happens if a dog eats mothballs?
