Procedure
The reaction of sodium bicarbonate
(baking soda) and acetic acid (vinegar)
produces carbon dioxide gas, water and
sodium acetate (soluble in water). The
carbon dioxide gas can originally be seen as
bubbles in the solution, but will quickly be
released from the solution. The amount of
carbon dioxide gas will exceed the space in
the bottle, and will move into the deflated
balloon, and will inflate it.
BEFORE
You can sketch or write what are the reactants
on this mini lab
The reactants in this mini lab are the baking soda and vinegar mixed
and created carbon dioxide
This happens because the carbon goes to the side that is deflated and
fills it up because the side that is inflated can have more air if not it will
explode.
AFTER
You can sketch or write what are the products
on this mini lab
• The products are vinegar poured in a water bottle and a balloon filled
with baking soda
You can sketch or write what are the products
on this mini lab
Is it exothermic or endothermic?
It is exo because it releases carbon dioxide and the balloon inflates and
the carbon instead of going to the inflated side the mixture is it goes to
the deflated side and fills it up.

What sign did you see to say that a chemical
reaction occurred.
Hint: Think what are the signs to say that a chemical reaction occurs?
well the two chemicals where mixed and that made carbon dioxide and
made the balloon rise and inflate
