because the gases in both of them react to each other
Yes, the amount a balloon fills up with gas from a baking soda and vinegar reaction can be controlled to some extent by adjusting the amount of baking soda used. More baking soda will produce more gas, resulting in the balloon inflating more. However, there may be other factors at play, such as the size of the container or the amount of vinegar used, that can also affect the balloon's inflation.
The reaction between baking soda and vinegar produces carbon dioxide gas. Once all the reactants have been converted to products and no more gas is being produced, the pressure inside the balloon equalizes with the pressure outside, causing the balloon to stop expanding.
add vinegar to baking soda and collect the carbon dioxide gas produced in a balloon. this is possible in theory, however to inflate a balloon with a gas coming out of a reaction is really more complicated than that.
Yes, the amount of baking soda used in a baking soda and vinegar reaction will affect the size and rate of gas production, which will, in turn, affect how much the balloon inflates. Increasing the amount of baking soda will generate more gas and result in a larger balloon inflation, while using less baking soda will lead to a smaller balloon inflation.
The acetic acid in vinegar reacts with the baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, a base) to form carbonic acid and sodium acetate. The gas, or carbon dioxide is what makes the balloon inflate. Adding more vinegar will add more reactants going into the reaction, so more gas will be produced and cause the balloon to become more inflated.
Because you have more reactants going into the reaction, so the greater the products (Co2 gas and the foamy bubble).
vinegar
baking soda is a base while vinegar is an acid
Yes. Baking soda is a base, vinegar is an acid.
Baking soda, never use water or vinegar or sugar, water and vinegar will cause the fire to splatter grease on you. Sugar will just make it burn more. The baking soda will smother it and put it out
Baking soda (known chemically as "sodium bicarbonate" or NaHCO3) can be mixed with vinegar (a mixture of water and acetic acid, a.k.a. CH3COOH) to inflate a balloon with carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. The full reaction is: NaHCO3 + CH3COOH ---> CH3COONa + H2O + CO2(g) For more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate
To make baking soda more effective for baking, you can mix it with an acidic ingredient like buttermilk, yogurt, or vinegar to activate its leavening properties. This will help your baked goods rise and have a lighter texture.
