The way how the experiment works is pretty easy, everyone knows what the baking soda and the vinegar do when they mix. The tissue with the baking soda is so that you get a little bit of time to close the bag when the mix of the vinegar and the baking soda start to erupt. When you close the bag, carbon dioxide starts to fill up the bag and it starts to inflate, until, it is so full of carbon dioxide, that it pops. But sometimes it does not blow up the bag, Sometimes the carbon dioxide only inflates the bag until it looks like it is about to pop, but it just stays like that and it never explodes.…
发自我的iPad Key concepts Chemistry Physics Materials science Carbonation Physical reactions Explosions Introduction Have you ever seen the Diet Coke and Mentos experiment that is all over the Internet and wondered what makes the reaction work? You might think that there is some ingredient in a Mentos candy that causes a chemical reaction with the soda pop, like the way baking soda reacts with vinegar. But the amazing eruption that takes place when Mentos are dropped into Diet Coke or other brands of diet soda pop is not a chemical reaction at all! Instead it is a physical reaction.…
There are multiple ways to test this experiment, but only one way to find out. There are a couple different ways how cold temperatures can remove the warm air from the lukewarm soda. The first of these is conduction. Conduction is when heat is transferred by direct contact. An example of this would be if you put a metal spoon in a heated drink, in a short amount of time you would feel the spoon heating up.…
Press a warm quarter firmly against a chunk of dry ice. The quarter will scream loudly as the heat of the quarter causes the dry ice to instantly turn to gas where the two make contact. The gas pressure pushes the quarter away from the dry ice and, without contact, the dry ice stops sublimating. The quarter falls back into contact again, and the cycle repeats. This happens so quickly that the quarter vibrates, causing the singing sound.…
The American population has a love of soda. They also have an obesity epidemic and a rising rate of obesity related diseases. Many city politicians have attempted to pass a tax on sugar-sweetened beverages in an effort to decrease consumption. However, a soda tax has met with opposition by consumers, some politicians, and the soft drink industry. The tax proposal continues to come up for debate by city officials and public health experts as the nation attempts to decrease empty carbohydrate intake, improve nutrition and reduce diabetes.…
If the pop sinks, then it is because the pop is more dense than the water and the other pops. The steps our group took to figure this out were figuring out the mass, volume, if each pop sinks or floats, and the density. Our group found the mass by weighing it on a scale and using grams as the measurement. Then, we used a square bucket filled with water to figure out whether each pop can sinks or floats, which was only our starting point to figure out the solution to our group’s final conclusion of the question. Our group figured out the volume of the cans by using a graduated cylinder and some weights if we needed it.…
Squidy was a little “squid” in a 2 liter bottle that floated at the top, and when you squeezed the bottle, Squidy sank to the bottom. Then, when you released the bottle, Squidy would float back up to the top. Squidy used some of the gas laws and principles we learned in class such as: Boyle’s law, Pascal’s law, and Archimedes principle. Pascal's law plays a major role in Squidy. Pascal's law is about applying pressure, and when we applied pressure to the bottle, it forced Squidy to sink.…
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules through a semi permeable membrane to a low water potential from a high water potential. This semi permeable membrane is there to control the movement of materials that pass through the membrane out and into the cell (BBC). The rate of osmosis can be affected due to multiple aspects contributing to the effectiveness of the osmosis. This includes elements such as size of the particles, the temperature as well as the concentration of the solute. In the case of this experiment, the size of particles are something to consider as they can affect the rate of osmosis.…
Then see which balloon is blown up the most and that is the one with the most carbonation. For me pepsi had the most carbonation. So I started to drink pepsi more. Joseph Priestley invented carbonation in 1767 and Swedish chemistry professor Torbern Bergman in 1771 who both managed to come to the very similar procedure of infusing water with carbon dioxide. It just started out as carbonated water and everyone loved it.…
The first and second tests for the presence of ammonia and Chloride did not show any measurable results in any of the samples. The third test, the 4 in 1 test showed the Fiji bottled water to have hard water as compared to the Dasani and tap water. Fiji water had the highest chlorine content, double that of tap water. Tap water and Dasani water had higher alkaline than the Fiji water. The tap water rated highest on the phosphate content test followed by Dasani with half as much phosphates followed by Fiji having the lowest phosphates.…
Besides, banning soda sizes larger than 16 ounces will not stop individuals from consuming a lot of soda. They can still buy these big sized drinks at stores not affected by the ban. They can also just purchase two drinks to obtain their usual 32 oz cup size, according to this infographic; In this infographic, it states, “Before and After New York Considers Ban on Giant Sodas....” Dave Granlund shows a guy, who is obese, holding a giant soda cup.…
Mentorship in the clinical practice setting is an integral part of a qualified nurse role that facilitates learning and development. Through mentoring, there is a great opportunity for a nurse to pass on professional skills, knowledge and values towards a student trainee (Hodges, 2009). Alred et al, (2010) identified these processes benefit the nurse mentors themselves in terms of keeping up do date with their knowledge, increased job satisfaction and self-awareness. This assignment will critically analyse and evaluate an undertaken teaching skill regarding the role of a student in prevention and management of pressure ulcer using Gibbs (1988) reflective model.…
th the popularity of bottle water growing every day, it brings up the question... Is tap water better for you or bottle water? Which taste better? Which has more nutritional value? Here are a few things I have learned.…
This was done by using the ruler to measure the height of the area covered by bubbles at the vertical arm for 30 minutes at regular five-minute interval. All the results were recorded and tabulated. The volume of evolution of CO2 was obtained by using the…
The consumption of bottled water has been significantly increased. Many people in the country today take bottled water and they do not consider its consequences. Bottled water has negative effects on the environment and people’s health. The movie “Tapped” shows the dangers of taking bottled water. It takes a close look at the bottled water industry and notes that the companies involved are not taking enough measures to reduce the negative effect that their activities have on the industry.…
