Toy submarine powered by baking powder. A baking powder submarine is a plastic toy submarine that dives and surfaces with the addition of baking powder. Baking powder submarines are sometimes misidentified as "baking soda submarines"; however, baking soda alone dissolves but does not react when placed in water.
A column of porous black graphite formed during the experiment. Carbon snake experiment. The carbon snake is a demonstration of the dehydration reaction of sugar by concentrated sulfuric acid. With concentrated sulfuric acid, granulated table sugar performs a degradation reaction which changes its form to a black solid-liquid mixture. [1]
Baking powder is a dry chemical leavening agent, a mixture of a carbonate or bicarbonate and a weak acid. The base and acid are prevented from reacting prematurely by the inclusion of a buffer such as cornstarch. Baking powder is used to increase the volume and lighten the texture of baked goods.
The indicator is used in photosynthesis and respiration experiments to find out whether carbon dioxide is being liberated. [1] It is also used to test the carbon dioxide content during gaseous exchange of organisms. When the carbon dioxide content is higher than 0.04%, the initial red colour changes to yellow as the pH becomes more acidic.
A soda geyser is a physical reaction between a carbonated beverage, usually Diet Coke, and Mentos mints that causes the beverage to be expelled from its container. The candies catalyze the release of gas from the beverage, which creates an eruption that pushes most of the liquid up and out of the bottle.
Apple cider vinegar, or cider vinegar, is a vinegar made from cider, [3] and used in salad dressings, marinades, vinaigrettes, food preservatives, and chutneys. [4] It is made by crushing apples, then squeezing out the juice. The apple juice is then fermented by yeast which converts the sugars in the juice to ethanol.
Vinegar eels are often given to fry (baby fish) as a live food, like microworms. [ 1 ] [ 3 ] Although they are harmless and non- parasitic , leaving eels in vinegar is considered objectionable (for example, in the United States they are not permitted in vinegar destined for American consumers).
