HypothesisHypothesis• I believe that the higher the ratio of vinegar I believe that the higher the ratio of vinegar
to baking soda the better the resultto baking soda the better the result
ResearchResearch• Baking soda is sodium bicarbonateBaking soda is sodium bicarbonate• Vinegar is a weak acid Vinegar is a weak acid • When the two components are combined they make a strong rising of fizzWhen the two components are combined they make a strong rising of fizz• This is a multistep reactionThis is a multistep reaction
• The The sodium bicarbonate mixes with the acid to create carbon dioxide and sodium bicarbonate mixes with the acid to create carbon dioxide and
