That reaction produces carbon dioxide, and it bubbles quickly out. If you contain the reactants tightly before mixing them, it will cause an eruption of sorts as the reaction happens.
Here is the equation for that reaction:
NaHCO3 + HC2H3O2 --> NaC2H3O2 + H2O + CO2
To make a baking soda volcano, you will need a container, baking soda, vinegar, dish soap, and food coloring. First, place the container on a flat surface. Next, add a few tablespoons of baking soda into the container. Then, mix vinegar, dish soap, and food coloring in a separate container. Finally, pour the vinegar mixture into the container with the baking soda and watch as the volcano erupts.
The ideal ratio of vinegar to baking soda for creating a chemical reaction in a baking soda and vinegar experiment is 1:1.
baking soda and vinegar put the baking soda in first
The ideal ratio of baking soda to vinegar for a successful chemical reaction in a baking soda and vinegar experiment is 1:1.
Baking Soda and Vinegar combinedmake a fizzing reaction when the Acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda).
The ideal ratio of baking soda to vinegar for creating a chemical reaction in a baking soda and vinegar volcano experiment is 1:1.
The dependent variable in a lava in a cup experiment is typically the height of the "lava" (baking soda and vinegar mixture) that erupts from the cup. This variable is measured and affected by the independent variable, such as the amount of baking soda or vinegar used.
"How does the ratio of baking soda to vinegar affect the height of the eruption in a baking soda and vinegar volcano experiment?"
The more vinegar to baking soda, the better. I only tested up to 1 part baking soda/5 parts vinegar. Also, add the baking soda to the vinegar, not the other way around.
A balloon containing vinegar and baking soda will inflate due to the formation of carbon dioxide gas from the chemical reaction between the vinegar and baking soda.
baking soda= sodium bicarbonate vinegar= aceidic acid
Yes. Baking soda is a base, vinegar is an acid.
