TEST OBJECTIVES:
This experiment will illustrate the chemical reaction between citric acid and sodium
bicarbonate, this causes ‘fizzing’, this happens during the release of carbon dioxide
were the result becomes sodium citrate
BACKGROUND INFORATION:
Traditional bath soap may supplies bubble in which reacted to water. However by the
use of the study related to the Biochemistry we can make our bath’s fun by making our
own bath bombs.
TEST NEEDED:
Chemicals QTY Materials QTY
Food coloring 1 pack Flower Petals or 50 leafs
body glitter
Sweet Almond Oil 30 ml Large Bowls 2
Lavander oil 20 ml Large muffin tray 1
Bicarbonate soda 10 Tbsp Small glass jar 1
Citric Acid 3 Tbsp Rubber gloves
Spoon
TEST PROCEDURE:
1. Grease the sides and bases of a large muffin tray with a small amount of almond oil.
2. Place the citric acid and bicarbonate of soda into a large bowl. Mix the ingredients
together well, to form the base mixture.
3. Scoop out about half a cup of this mixture and put it into another bowl. This will make
about one or two bath bombs (depending on the size of the holes in your muffin tray).
You could also use old plastic containers or anything that will hold a shape.
4. Add the flower petals of body glitter to the base mixture.
5. In the small glass jar, mix together 6 drops of your scented oil, 5 teaspoons of sweet
almond oil and about 10 drops of food coloring.
6. Gradually pour the oil mixture into the half cup of the base mixture. While wearing
rubber gloves, quickly mix it all together. The mixture is ready when it stays together in
your hands without crumbling too much.
7. Spoon the mixture into the muffin tray. Press it down firmly.
8. You can use the rest of the mixture with other types of scented oil or food coloring to
make more bath bombs
9. Leave the bombs in the tray to set for a few days.
10. Carefully up-end your bath bombs to remove them from the moulds.
11. Run a bath, hop in and drop a bomb. Watch it fizzzzzz!

TEST OBJECTIVES:
This experiment will illustrate the relationship between water and temperature until it will
be dissolved. When the solution cools back down to a room temperature it will become
supersaturated.
BACKGROUND INFORATION:
As the water evaporates, the solute precipitates out of solution in the form of crystals.
This is an example of crystallization. The size and shape of a crystal depend on a number of
factors including chemical formula, temperature and pressure. In general, crystals that form
slowly tend to be larger than crystals that form quickly.
TEST NEEDED:
Chemicals QTY Materials QTY
Sugar Half klg. Eye droppers 3
Salt ¼ klg. Spoons 3
Warm water 1 liter Plastic containers 3
Bicarbonate soda 15 Tbsp Measuring cup 1
Small plastic cups 3
Markers
TEST PROCEDURE:
1. Label the containers ‘sugar’, ‘salt’ and ‘bi-carb’.
2. Pour half a cup of warm water into the container labelled ‘sugar’.
3. Add a spoonful of sugar to the water and stir until dissolved. Keep adding sugar
until no more will dissolve.
