Cosmic Rocket by 4M-A rocket powered by baking soda and acetic acid Baking powder is actually harmless and boring. This is changing very fast when it comes into contact with vinegar. For then you have a mixture, the 16 cm-high rocket throws up to 16 meters into the cosmos. Incredibly cool action. How does it work? It's simple: baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. And vinegar is an acid, namely acetic acid. The chemical reaction of two substances leads to the rapid formation of CO2 - the non-toxic carbon dioxide gas. This provides a lot of pressure and speed up the rocket after the recoil principle in the air. Recommended age: 12 years or with parental support |
