Does it matter what type of oil? Canola, vegetable, etc.

[@KidsFunScience]

Hi SixHandSpice World, I used a genetic Veggie oil from the store (Walmart). I don't think it matters which oil you use, as oil should be less dense then vinegar and baking soda. Let me know if you have any other questions thanks Ken

[@SixHandWorld]

@@KidsFunScience Cool. Just checking. Going to try this in a soda bottle. Thinking it might explode or expand though with the cap on 😕

[@nivedkp5303]

Cool experiment. Does vinegar and baking soda neutralise when they come in contact with each other and is that the reason why the food colour starts to rise up?

[@KidsFunScience]

Hi Nived K P, Yes you are right when the vinegar and baking soda come in contact with each other they form a carbon dioxide gas and the gas floats to the top and the gas bubble pops and the vinegar that got caught in the gas sinks back down. When baking soda is mixed with vinegar, something new is formed and causes a chemical reaction. The mixture quickly foams up with carbon dioxide gas. If enough vinegar is used, all of the baking soda can be made to react and disappear into the vinegar solution. The reaction is: Sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid reacts to carbon dioxide, water and sodium acetate. thanks Ken

@@KidsFunScience Thank you for your detailed explanation 🙂

Can we use any other colour instead of food colour? Like may be little bit if poster colour or acrylic paint?

[@KidsFunScience]

Good Morning Jasmine, I have not tried it before with acrylic paint, but don't see why it would not work. All you are doing is adding color to the vinegar. If you try it let me know how it turns out? thanks Ken

[@DisneyVacationFamily]

Love making lava lamps! Thanks Ken!

[@KidsFunScience]

Morning Jason, Yes who doesn't love lava lamps. This one is cool, because you don't need alka-seltzer tablet. Making it less expensive and you can add different colors. thanks

[@rainpatrickdeguzman9841]

when will the reaction stops?

[@KidsFunScience]

Good Morning Rain Patrick De Guzman, Once the chemical reaction from the baking soda and vinegar has finish. So once the reaction starts too slow down or stop you should be able to add more vinegar and start the reaction again. Thanks Ken

Thank you as this helps my channel. Thanks Ken

[@irislorikeet4287]

I loved it. My question is, how long will it last ?

[@KidsFunScience]

Hi irislorikeet4287, It usually last a couple minutes but you can add more vinegar and it should start again. As you see in the video there is still baking soda on the bottom and once the vinegar hits it it will start that reaction again. It won't last forever but you can always add more baking soda if the vinegar doesn't reacation any more. thanks for watching.
