    Default Science experiment

    Has anyone ever done the vinegar and baking soda experiment? It's supposed to create a "volcano effect". I tried it and it completely didn't work! Wondering where I went wrong?!

    I have done it a few years ago now. What vinegar did you use?
    When someone tells you nothing is impossible, tell them to go slam a revolving door

    Did it work with white vinegar? How did you do it?

    I wonder why it didn't work. We do it often. I use malt vinegar too. Maybe it was the ratios you used? Check out 'Growing a Jewelled Rose' - she doeslots of versions of it.
