A little more than a week ago, Rostyslav and I announced a new Experiments playlist on his YouTube channel.
And now the first video is ready!
For the first experiment, we used baking soda and vinegar to inflate a balloon.
Vinegar is an acid, and baking soda is a base. When they react, they produce carbon dioxide gas, water, and a salt called sodium acetate.
The carbon dioxide fills the balloon and makes it inflate.
It is a very simple experiment, and it is easy to repeat at home. You only need a bottle, vinegar, baking soda, and a balloon. When the baking soda falls into the vinegar, the reaction starts immediately and the balloon begins to inflate.
This is only the first video in the new playlist. We already have more experiments planned! 🙂
