"No as the vinegar and baking soda combined weight is too heavy - helium lighter than air therefore it goes up/floats" Hello - the above prior answer is correct if you mean attaching vinegar and baking soda as a payload. If you mean just capturing the gas from the reaction, the above answer ends up correct anyway, as the gaseous product of the reaction is CO2 (carbon dioxide). CO2 is about 50% heavier than air (mostly Nitrogen), so a balloon filled with CO2 will still sink. ---MexicoDoug

Can you use baking soda to dye fabric?

Baking soda will not work with most dyes. It has the opposite effect, it makes the dye less reactive. For all you wanted to know about dye, see the website I have provided.In the article you will see the words sodium bicarbonate used instead of baking soda. It is the chemical name for baking soda. Also note, baking soda (bicarbonate of soda is another name for it) is NOT the same as baking powder.


How do you get hard water stains out of your toilet?

White vinegar has been proven to work time and again to remove hard water stains from toilets. See the step by step method below:Natural Formula to Use:Pure white vinegarMethod to Use:1.Fill a clean spray bottle with pure vinegar2.Spray the vinegar freely over the toilet and wait for a few minutes3.If stains are stubborn spray more vinegar and wait a while longer4.Simply wipe away with a clean cloth to reveal the shineTips:For toilet bowls add 1 liter of vinegar to the bowl itself and scrub with a toilet brush to dissolve away hard water stains that has built up over time. Also, by adding 1 liter of pure vinegar to the cistern (tank at back of toilet) this not only removes any stains from there but also removes any from underneath the rim on the next flush!Sometimes stains are extra stubborn - for this make a paste of white vinegar and baking soda and scrub gently with a soft brush or sponge. Never use an abrasive cleaner like scouring pads, powders or steel wool as this will scratch the surface.

What is the value of The Old Balloon Seller and The Balloon Man?

Looks like a retail value of about $150 to $200 for the early ones, likely much less at auction as they are a common find. Both were made for many years. A less than perfect one of recent vintage would be of minimal value.


How do you make a egg bounce in vinegar?

Here's what you do:Fill the jar with the vinegar (enough to cover the egg) and place the hard-boiled egg inside of the jar. Put the lid on the jar and loosely tighten it. Leave the jar in a place where it will not be disturbed; especially away from the little brother's hands. You'll notice that many small bubbles will form on the eggshell as soon as you place the egg in the vinegar. If you watch the egg for a while, you'll see that some of the bubbles will grow larger and rise to the surface of the vinegar. Sometimes, large bubbles will form on the bottom of the egg. The egg will move around because the egg and the vinegar are denser, or heavier, than the bubbles. The egg will float as soon as enough bubbles are attached to it. The bubbles will cause it to move so that it looks like it's alive!The vinegar will completely decompose the shell of the egg in about one or two days. When the shell is gone, take the egg out of the jar and wash it and allow it to dry. It will feel leathery. After it's dry,try to bounce it. It will bounce like a ball!

Why will baking soda and vinegar fill up a balloon?

Yes! if you have too much of one then it cannot completely react but will fill the balloon up 100% comparatively. if you have the right amount then it will not waste a lot and will fill up the balloon 90% comparatively. if you don't add enough of one then you will fill it up a lot less like 50% comparatively. (but one of the ingredients has to be constant)

How does a balloon look when it is inflated by vinegar and baking soda?

About the same. You can't really tell the difference between gasses just by looking at the balloon (unless it's floating). It will be filled with CO2, a colorless gas, just like air. It will be heavier, but not noticeably so.

How do helium balloons work?

helium balloons get filled with a amount of air in which is called helium it is used to make balloons float around in air. helium is a inert,gaseous element!!!!!yea i kenisha am smartHelium is less dense than air, therefore a helium-filled balloon will float in air.Helium is lighter that air, so it effectively floats on air. As a helium balloon is submerged in air, it rises upwards (like an air filled bubble in water).

Why baking soda and vinegar make a balloon blow up?

The regular chemical reaction that you would see with something like a volcano experiment would still happen under a balloon. Air would be released, the balloon would expand and eventually pop.


When released why does a balloon moves like a rocket?

A balloon does not move like a rocket. A helium filled balloon will float upward because the density of helium is less than that of air, so it is effectively "lighter". A rocket is propelled in any direction using a booster engine that burns fuel.

Can you fill a basketball with helium?

Soccer balls do not contain helium. if they did, they would float like a balloon! Actually, that's not true. A soccer ball would NOT float like a balloon--they weigh too much. It would, however, increase the distance ever so slightly over that of a regular air filled soccer ball. Eventually over time, the helium would dissipate, much like a helium balloon that slowly falls to the ground.
