Science Experiments : How To Make Volcano Erupted

in #steemiteducation7 years ago (edited)

Hello all steemians now i want to share one of simple experiment for student expecially for primary school. Rather than always give toys to children, try another way to play that is not less fun. Invite your child to experiment like a professor in a laboratory.

In addition to fun, this activity can also greatly educate children to know science early on. One simple experiment you can do while at home is by volcano experiments.

You will need some materials, but calm the material is not difficult at all to be found.

Tools And Materials :

  1. Prepare baking soda
  2. Clay (made of wax or clay)
  3. Old newspapers
  4. Red food coloring (the color can be suitably chosen, red is chosen because of resemblance to lava),
    5 a quarter bottle of vinegar,
  5. Liquid soap
  6. Safety glasses

Procedures How To Make :

The first thing to do is put a newspaper sheet for the experiment. After that take the child to make a volcano using clay.

Create a volcano with a hole in the middle. The width is about 2 inches and the depth is about 4 inches. Give the base of the volcano using a container, can use a plate or other pedestal.

Put one tablespoon of baking soda into the volcano, then give 3 drops of food coloring. This will make the appearance of the eruption more interesting. Then ask your child to put 3 drops of liquid soap into it. And now it's time to use safety glasses.

The highlight is to enter a quarter of a bottle of vinegar and see what happens. Boom! The red lava will come out of the volcano. Why could there be an explosion?

Time For Eruption!

The Result

Volcano Erupts when acidic vinegar meets with baking soda which is alkaline and neutralizes its acidic properties. Then the volcano emits carbon dioxide that creates bubbles and sounds emerge.

I may do it with my boys ;)

Yes ofcourse this very easy....

Yeah but the important point is that it could be impressive for kids! And they may have fun of observing (and making) it

Yes thats right...make they up their brain...
