Koby wanted to do an experiment where he could observe a chemical reaction. He decided that he was going to combine baking soda with water and with vinegar and see whether either one created a chemical reaction. Koby placed ½ teaspoon of baking soda into each of two identical glasses. He noticed the baking soda was lumpy, so he used a fork to break up the lumps. Why is it important to break up the lumps?

Experiment you will be able to watch a chemical reaction. In this experiment vinegar (a substance) and baking soda (a substance) will mix together. When mixed together the molecules of the two substances will re-arrange, or change, to make new substances.

Vinegar has acetic acid in it. The chemical name for baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. When you mix the two together you get sodium acetate and water. You also get carbon dioxide, which is a gas. The bag puffs up because carbon dioxide is a gas and takes up a lot of space. Eventually the bag isn't big enough to hold all that carbon dioxide gas so it explodes!
