Did you know?

Did you know that making a homemade volcano is a super fun and educational experiment? To create this mini natural disaster at home, you only need a few simple ingredients. Gather some baking soda, vinegar, water, dish soap, and a small container like a plastic bottle or a cup. Mix the baking soda and a few drops of dish soap with water to make a smooth paste. Then, pour vinegar into the container, and quickly add the baking soda mixture. The chemical reaction between the vinegar (acetic acid) and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) creates carbon dioxide gas, which rapidly escapes, causing the exciting eruption resembling a volcano. Remember to do this experiment in a controlled area and ask an adult for assistance if needed. So, have fun and discover the "explosive" science behind a homemade volcano!
