Yes. Mixing vinegar and baking soda releases carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. If you can add the two together and quickly attach a balloon to the container (and close any other openings), the balloon will inflate with CO2
When baking soda and vinegar are mixed in a balloon, a chemical reaction occurs that produces carbon dioxide gas. This gas inflates the balloon, causing it to expand and sometimes even pop if too much gas is produced.
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)
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.
A balloon inflated with vinegar and baking soda typically lasts for a few minutes. The chemical reaction between the vinegar (acid) and baking soda (base) produces carbon dioxide gas, which inflates the balloon. Once the reaction is complete and the gas stops being produced, the balloon will slowly deflate.
it doesn't really matter how much just put in the baking soda (as much as you want) then add the vinegar until it explodes, or boils over
No It Doesn't Matter What Kind Of Vinegar You UseThe "active" part in vinegar is acetic acid. Baking soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) is essentially a solid form of carbon dioxide which will be released in the presence of acid, thus inflating the balloon with primarily carbon dioxide.It may be difficult to calculate the exact concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar to determine how much vinegar and baking soda to use, but it probably doesn't have to be exact.Acetic Acid + Sodium Bicarbonate --> Sodium Acetate + Water + Carbon Dioxide.CH3COOH + NaHCO3 --> CH3COONa + H2O + CO2Where (H+) + (HCO3-) --> H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2
Blowing air into a balloon increases the pressure and stretches the balloon material. If you blow too much air, the pressure inside the balloon exceeds the elastic limit of the material, causing it to burst.
Not much will happen if you mix baking soda with water. If you mix it with vinegar something will happen. Vinegar is more acidic.
Baking soda and vinegar is the standard way of making a papier-mache "volcano" for a child's science project. The reaction between baking soda and vinegar is immediate and can be quite intense. Too much baking soda and too much vinegar can make the "lava" erupt to the ceiling of the classroom!
Yes, but only because you increased the fuel. You would basically get the same sized reaction if you used twice as much baking soda and twice as much vinegar (or twice as much mentos and twice as much coke).
Because air takes up space. When you attempt to blow up the balloon, you are adding air to the inside of it. But the air between the balloon and the bottle has no place to go. It will only contract so much.
