Today I conducted an experiment using vinegar, baking soda, and red food coloring. I was trying to make a real volcano. To make it look like real lava, I used the baking soda and red dye together.
That's me above! I was wearing my shirt to cover my mouth and nose so I won't smell that odor (a.k.a. the vinegar smell). I wore the gloves so I wouldn't get any of the vinegar and baking soda on me.
First, I put the baking soda in the volcano. Then I used a funnel to put the dyed red vinegar into the volcano. Check it out below:
Suddenly, the volcano erupted!!!
I kept adding more baking soda and vinegar so it could sizzle more.
And, by the way, the "guts" thing is just an expression. I didn't put my actual guts into it, because that would be really disgusting and weird.
