Five of the best science experiments you can do at home.
Science can be extremely fun and interesting, and the best way to discover it is through experimentation. In this blog, we'll highlight five of the best science experiments you can do at home.
- Chemical volcano
For this experiment, you will need baking soda, vinegar, food coloring, and a mixing bowl. Put baking soda in a mixing bowl, add some food coloring and slowly pour in the vinegar. This mixture will cause a chemical reaction that will create a volcanic effect.
- A balloon in a bottle
For this experiment, you will need a bottle, balloon, baking soda and vinegar. Put some baking soda in the bottle, place the balloon over the top of the bottle, then pour the vinegar into the balloon. This mixture will cause a chemical reaction to fill the balloon with gas, which will inflate it inside the bottle.
- Growing salt cube
For this experiment, you will need a bowl, salt, food coloring, water, and a sponge cube. Put water in a bowl, add food coloring, and then dip the sponge cube into this mixture. Sprinkle salt on the cube and wait a few hours. The salt will melt and crystals will begin to form on the cube, causing it to grow.
- Making soap
For this experiment, you will need soap, water, food coloring, essential oils, and a mixing bowl. Melt the soap in a bowl, add food coloring and essential oils, then pour the mixture into the soap molds. Wait a few hours for the soap to harden, then remove it from the mold.
- Crystal making
For this experiment, you will need water, salt, food coloring, a mixing bowl, and a sponge. Put water in a container, add salt and food coloring. Then, dip the sponge in this mixture and let it air dry. Crystals will form on the sponge, creating beautiful patterns and shapes.
