  1. The Elephant's Toothpaste Experiment

    The foam produced is just water, soap, and oxygen so you can clean it up with a sponge and pour any extra liquid left in the bottle down the drain. This experiment is sometimes called "Elephant's Toothpaste" because it looks like toothpaste coming out of a tube, but don't get the foam in your mouth!

    Hydrogen peroxide can irritate the eyes and skin, so put on your gloves and safety goggles. Pour about ¾ cup of hydrogen peroxide into the bottle. Add a few drops of food coloring. Add a pretty big squirt of dish soap into the bottle (about 1 tablespoon). When you're ready… using the funnel, add about ½ of the yeast solution to the bottle ...

  19. Yeast and a balloon

    Step 6 Leave the bottle for 20 minutes and watch the balloon inflate! Also note the foam in the bottle. Short explanation When yeast eats sugar, the gas carbon dioxide is released. The carbon dioxide takes up a lot of space and stretches the bottle and the balloon. It also appears as bubbles in the liquid. Long explanation Yeast is actually a ...

  20. Growing Yeast: Sugar Fermentation

    The yeast in glass 1 was activated by adding warm water and sugar. The foaming results from the yeast eating the sucrose. Did glass 1 smell different? Typically, the sugar fermentation process gives off heat and/or gas as a waste product. In this experiment glass 1 gave off carbon dioxide as its waste.
