science experiment

Purpose/question: What makes a bigger eruption?

Researcatched youtube video, 124  grams of baking soda, 115.56 grams of vinegar (less used in video),  was not a big explosion

Hypothesis: More vinegar is needed for a larger eruption.

Experiment: In cup A we used more baking soda and less vinegar. In cup B we used an equal amount of baking soda and vinegar.  In cup C we used more vinegar and less baking soda.

Analysis:  After we conducted the experiment we found cup A reachhed  a  height  of 8 lines. In cup B we found that it reached 8 lines  as well. Cup C reached the highest height with 15 lines which filled the whole cup!

Conclusion  You need more vinegar than baking soda to get a  bigger eruption.
