Two young girls holding up slime made using glue, baking soda, shaving cream, food coloring, and contact lens solution. Slime is a homemade toy typically created using a combination of water, glue, and borax. Videos of people playing with slime became popular on social media in the mid-2010s, which made it an international trend. A green ...
Cupcakes baked with baking soda as a raising agent. Sodium bicarbonate (IUPAC name: sodium hydrogencarbonate [9]), commonly known as baking soda or bicarbonate of soda, is a chemical compound with the formula NaHCO 3. It is a salt composed of a sodium cation (Na +) and a bicarbonate anion (HCO 3 −).
Baking powder is made up of a base, an acid, and a buffering material to prevent the acid and base from reacting before their intended use. [5] [6] Most commercially available baking powders are made up of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3, also known as baking soda or bicarbonate of soda) and one or more acid salts.
Slime is a toy product manufactured by Mattel, sold in a plastic trash can and introduced in February 1976. [2] It consists of a non-toxic viscous, squishy and oozy green or other color material made primarily from guar gum. [3]
Magnetic slime robot is in the form of a blob of slime. It is said to be able to make C and O shapes with its body, and these robots could navigate passages as small as 1.5 millimeters. [ 3 ] Its self-healing properties make it able to connect with other separate parts of itself to make a whole.
Scientists have scoured the depths of the ocean and outer space for microbes to help slow global warming. They are now looking at a new and unlikely place — inside your home.
It is sometimes produced in a laboratory experiment by the reaction of acetic acid, commonly in the 5–18% solution known as vinegar, with sodium carbonate ("washing soda"), sodium bicarbonate ("baking soda"), or sodium hydroxide ("lye", or "caustic soda"). Any of these reactions produce sodium acetate and water.
Hydrogen peroxide solutions have a greater ability to fight acanthamoeba keratitis, a rare infection that can cause blindness. Some researchers have found the peroxide cleaning regimen to encourage better contact lens care practices among peroxide users compared to multipurpose solution users. [6] Multipurpose solutions tend to be less ...
