Volcano
The volcano experiment demonstrates the classical chemical reaction between an acid and a carbonate to simulate a volcanic eruption. By mixing vinegar with washing up liquid and pouring this into baking soda, a foam is produced that rapidly expands in volume. Food colouring can be added to make the show more visually appealing!
