In this one-session hands-on class, we will experiment with an acid (vinegar) and a base (baking soda) using bottles and balloons. After conducting our controlled experiment, we will apply our understanding of an acid-base reaction to making the batter for soda bread. Students will learn how to conduct a controlled experiment, what is an acid-base reaction, how to measure the volume of liquids and solids, how to measure the circumference of a sphere, and how to make soda bread.
