How do you make a science explosion at home?
Measure half a cup of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide and pour it into the bottle along with a big squirt of dish soap. Swish gently to mix. In a separate bowl, mix a tablespoon of yeast with three tablespoons of warm water until pasty. Pour the yeast mixture into the bottle, quickly remove the funnel, and stand back!
How do you make exploding foam?
Here’s How: Carefully pour the hydrogen peroxide into the plastic soda bottle. Add 10 drops of food coloring to the plastic soda bottle. Add 1 T. of dish soap to the plastic soda bottle, and swirl the bottle around to mix everything up.
How do you make an instant ice experiment?
Process
- Put water bottles in the freezer for two hours.
- Remove the water bottles from the freezer before they freeze.
- Place a ceramic bowl upside down on a flat surface (like a tray) to catch the water overage.
- Place an ice cube on top of the pouring surface.
- Then SLOWLY pour while instant ice forms!
How do you make ice science project?
Combine baking soda and vinegar to make sodium acetate, or hot ice! It crystalizes instantly when you pour it, allowing you to create a tower of crystals. Since the process of crystallization is exothermic, the “ice” that forms will be hot to the touch. Science is so cool!
How do you make something explode in science?
Pour some hydrogen peroxide into a soda bottle. Get a large 2 liter (0.5 US gal) soda bottle and pour in some hydrogen peroxide. The stronger (high concentration or percentage) the hydrogen peroxide you use, the bigger the explosion will be…but be careful: hydrogen peroxide can easily burn you!
How do you make a lava lamp for a science project?
What You Do:
- Fill the flask most of the way with your choice of oil.
- Fill the rest of the flask with water.
- Add a few drops of food coloring; your choice of color.
- Break an Alka-seltzer tablet into a few small pieces, and drop them in the flask one at a time.
- Watch your lava lamp erupt into activity!
How do you make fizzy foam?
Directions:
- Mix together the baking soda and water.
- Add the shaving foam.
- Divide the fizzy foam paint into five small cups or dishes (We used Solo cups).
- Add 7 drops of food coloring per cup (We used the neon food coloring drops).
- Using a funnel transfer the colored paint to each bottle.
What are some examples of Crystal science fair projects?
Here are some examples of crystal science fair projects and ideas to help launch your own creativity in choosing your own project. Younger investigators may want to make a collection of crystals and work out their own method for grouping the crystals into categories. Common crystals include salt, sugar, snowflakes, and quartz.
How do ice crystals grow in water bottles?
The process of starting the ice crystals is called “nucleation.” This starts from an impurity or scratch or piece of dust on the container holding the water. In this case, the water bottle. One ice crystal attaches to the imperfection, and the others grow on top.
How do you make crystals?
A crystal is an organized group of molecules, each with their own shape. For example, snowflakes are made of ice crystals and each snowflake is different. You can make crystals by using salt or sugar. For this experiment we will use salt.
How do you make instant ice cubes?
Place an ice cube on top of the pouring surface. Then SLOWLY pour while instant ice forms! This simple but amazing experiment is more than just a cool one. The science behind it lies in the freezing temperature of water and how ice crystals form. This is also referred to as Supercooled Water or Flash Freezing.
