The build up to the science fair.

Kia Ora
The last couple of weeks we have been working on our Science Fair project. The people in my group were Bailey, Kayne and Cyprus. We are doing balloon cars they move by the air given from the balloon.  Our prediction is that the more air we blow into the balloon, the larger the balloon will be and the faster the car will go.
 We'll let you know what happens on Thursady.

Writing a scientific report.

Kia Ora
This term we are doing science. This week we started doing experiments. We had to write up a scientific report and when we finished writing our steps we done the experiment. We mixed vinegar and baking soda together to make it fizz at the end we tasted it.

B E G I N N I N G	TITLE	Yuk yuk yuk!
	QUESTION.	If we mix vinegar and baking soda will we observe some kind of reaction?
	THESIS.	Vinegar tastes sour and it is a liquid. Baking soda is a solid,soft white powder and it tastes salty and horrible. They are both food substances but based on their different taste, they must be chemically different. So, if they are mixed together, there might be a chemical reaction.
	HYPOTHESIS.	We predict that when we mix vinegar with baking soda an observable chemical reaction will occur. We might see and hear and explosion, fire, foaming, bubbles, fizzing or something else. The resulting mixture might look and taste difference in the size of the materials.

M I D D L E	EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS:	Baking soda Vinegar Container for mixing Teaspoon for mixing
	PROCEDURE	Pour some vinegar into a container to a depth of about 2cm. Use a teaspoon to measure in half teaspoon of baking soda. Mix with teaspoon. Observe and record what happens. Yuk taste
	OBSERVATIONS:	At step 2 the mixture started to fizz, A fizzing sound was heard, bubbles were seen to   appear in the mixture and the materials rose higher in the container. At step 3, when the materials were mixed, even more bubbles appeared and the volume of the materials in the container rose even higher. At step 5 when the mixture was tasted, the taste was unpleasant and was similar to  baking soda.

ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION

The goal of this experiment was to see if an observable reaction would take place when vinegar and baking soda were mixed together. The result of our experiment proves that our hypothesis was correct. We predicted that there would be an observable reaction, and there was. There was lots of foaming and fizzing happening and bubbles appeared which means a gas must have been produced. A quick check online showed us that the gas was carbon dioxide.
