Do your children like inflatable balloons?
It's true that it's nice especially during birthdays.
Here's an awesome trick to blowing up balloons that your kids will love.
This experiment consists of using baking soda and white vinegar to inflate a balloon. Watch:
- sodium bicarbonate
- white vinegar
- a funnel or else you can cut the neck of a bottle to make a house
- a plastic bottle
- inflatable balloons
1. Pour about 3 cm of white vinegar into the bottom of the bottle.
2. Fill half of the balloon with baking soda using the funnel.
3. Hang the balloon on the neck of the bottle.
4. Lift the balloon so that the baking soda falls into the bottle.
5. The baking soda will come into contact with the vinegar which will inflate the balloon before your eyes!
6. Tie a knot to close the inflatable balloon.
There you go, you've inflated the balloon with baking soda and vinegar :-)
Warning: do not breathe this gas, as you may get a headache.
Simple, practical and effective!
