baking soda volcano
Fizzy science project
A baking soda volcano is a classic science project demonstrating a chemical reaction.
Baking soda (a base) mixed with vinegar (an acid) produces carbon dioxide gas, which bubbles up dramatically.
The "volcano" is typically a cone-shaped mound of clay or papier-mâché with the mixture inside: Every kid makes a baking soda volcano at some point.
