Foamy Fountain Experiment

Qualitative:1. Dish soap is green2. Spilled some yeast on table3. Stuff in bottle starts to rise when yeast mixture is added4. Bottle with green soap overflowed

Quantitative:1. Two 2-liter soda bottles2. 2 yeast mixture (3 tablespoons of water and 1 tablespoon of yeast)3. 8 drops of food coloring in each bottle4. 20% Hydrogen Peroxide in bottle with green soap5. 3% Hydrogen Peroxide in bottle with orange soap]

Materials: Two 2-liter soda bottles 2 cups 20% Hydrogen Peroxide 3% Hydrogen Peroxide Room Temperature Water Dish Soap Funnel 3 Glass Beakers Yeast Food Coloring

During this experiment, the yeast was a catalyst so when the hydrogen peroxide added another atom to the water, it reacted with the extra atom and made it overflow into the container that the bottle was sitting in. It made an exothermic mixture because it released heat when it reacted.

This experiment relates to the chemical reactions unit and the periodic table of elements unit. It relates to the chemical reactions unit because you are mixing two things to create a mixture and reaction. It relates to the periodic table of elements because you are talking about adding atoms to create a mixture.
