why do mentos and dr. explode?


The actual reaction is called the Surface Effect. Basically, Carbon Dioxide forms bubbles and as Diet Coke has more Carbon Dioxide than other sodas, it fills the holes from the mentos. Since the Mentos are heavy, they drop to the bottom of the bottle, forming bubbles all the way down. This is what causes the fast and furious explosion out of the top of the Diet Coke bottle.

what i predict is it is going to explode

- One clean, plastic soda bottle (16 oz. size works effieciently)
- bottle cap
- Vegetable oil
- Food color
- Alka-Seltzer tablet
-water
http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/

Just Fill the bottle 3/4 full with vegetable oil.
Fill the all of the bottle with water (almost to the top but not overflowing).
Add about 10 drops of food coloring. Be sure to make the water fairly dark in color. Notice that the food coloring only colors the water and not the oil.
seperate the Alka-Seltzer tablet into only 8 pieces.
Drop one of the tiny pieces of Alka-Seltzer into the oil and water mixture. When the bubbling stops, add another chunk of Alka-Seltzer. It’s just like a lava lamp!
then when you have used up all of the Alka-Seltzer and when the bubbling has stopped, screw on the soda bottle cap. Tip the bottle back and forth then see the wave. The tiny drops of liquid join together to make one big lava-like blob.

THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD



Question:
How would you make disappearing ink?



Research:
->. this is the basic chemisty that happens with the ink.
http://chemistry.about.com/od/demonstrationsexperiments/ss/disappearink.htm
http://chemistry.about.com/od/demonstrationsexperiments/ss/disappearink_2.htm
->. these are the materials needed to do the experiment.
http://chemistry.about.com/od/demonstrationsexperiments/ss/disappearink_3.htm
->. these are the directions to continue the experiment.
http://chemistry.about.com/od/demonstrationsexperiments/ss/disappearink_4.htm


Hypothesis:
When we mix the lye with the rubbing alcohol we will be able to make an ink that once exposed to air, be able to disappear.

However, by adding another chemicla to the substance, we hope to be able to retrieve the color form the ink and dreate a dissappearing-reappearing ink.


Experiment:
ingrediants::
0.10 g thymolphthalein for blue ink or phenolphthalein for red ink (1/3 of 1/8 tsp)
10 ml (2 tsp) ethyl alcohol (ethanol) [can substitute 14 ml or 3 tsp of ethyl rubbing alcohol]
90 ml water
20 drops of 3M sodium hydroxide solution or 10 drops 6M sodium hydroxide solution [make a 3 M sodium hydroxide solution by dissolving 12 g of sodium hydroxide NaOH (1 level tablespoon of lye) in 100 ml (1/2 cup) of water.


directions::
Dissolve the thymolphthalein (or phenolphthalein) in the rubbing alcohol.
Stir in 90 ml of water (will produce a milky solution).

Add lye solution dropwise until the solution turns a dark blue or red (might take slightly more or less than the number of drops stated in the ingriants section).



to clarify experiment::

Test the ink by applying it to fabric (cotton tee-shirt material or a table cloth works well). Paper allows less interaction with air, so the color change reaction takes more time.
In a few seconds, the 'stain' will disappear. The pH of the ink solution is 10-11, but after exposure to air will drop to 5-6. The damp spot will eventually dry. A white residue may be visible on dark fabrics. The residue will rinse out in the wash.


Experiment 2:

step 2::
If you brush over the spot with a cotton ball that has been dampened in ammonia the color will return. Similarly, the color will vanish more quickly if you apply a cotton ball dampened with vinegar or if you blow on the spot to improve air circulation.



->.hopefully the ink is able to disappear and reappear with the mixture that we were able to conduct.
->.if the experiment does not work then we will tamper with the ingredients and measurements to be able to successfully make disappearing -and- reappearing ink:]

bllind carlos cruz

When I was little I became blind. I remembered that when I was 8 , I could not tell the boy’s bathroom from the girl’s bathroom. So I asked the kid walking down the hall "whith is which?". He said the one on the left was girls and the one on the right was for girls, but he still did not know his left from right. (I did not know that) so I walk in and heard some one scream “there a girl in the guy’s bathroom!” so I ran out I was completely embarrassed.

21 Frances Garibaldo Being Ripped Off

Ok I went to the store & I have 60 dollars I suppose to buy paper towels & I want some hot cheetos for a dollar ok my mom gave me $60 and the paper towels are 5 dollars and I’m suppose to get $14 back so weres the 5 I have in my pocket and the lady showed me were the papertowls my mom told me to get the bounty paper towels so the lady is kind enough to tell me which on they are so when i get to tthe cash regesiter i already have the chips [[the lady was nice enough to give it to me]] so im their and im trying to figure out what to give them so i have one five, 3 twos , nine one dollar bills , a twenety dollar bill and two a tens so i think i have a 5 in my hand so i give it to the lady & io tell her to give me the change so she says i dont get change back so i was like ok then i go home give my mo the moneyand she says i was ripped off i gave her the wrong bill & i was suppose to get like 14 back

01blind

i am blind i cannot count money i think people slould imbraile how much money a dollar bill has like one dot for one dollar and two dots for two dollars or five dots for five dollars and so on and so on.

13Julie Money for the blind

People used to get paid in ones so that they could count it and there would be no stealing their money.

ivan 029

when i woke up one day i decided that life for blind people is not fair in many ways for example the money is hard to handle you never now what you might put in you mind believing that its food money is the hardest because you never know how much your giving to the clerk or person and there are many people out there who will take advantage of you and take more money than necessary one way to solve this problem is to fold each one of your bills in different ways that you will recognize and place them in different places in your pocket

22 yessi: script blind...

i went to the store and bougth some chips and it was $1.08 and i only had 42 dollars and i didnt know wich was wich so i just gave him the money 42 dollars and the change was 29 dollars and something cents so he gave me less then he should of and i didnt know so i just went out the store and tried to count my money but i didnt know how so i went home walking agian and told my friend how much is this?...he said 29 dollars why?...oh because i went to th store to buy chips...oh he gave you the wrong change so yea can you go over there and tell him i got the wrong change okay bye...

so yea this is my longgggggggg script and ok bye 22 yessi..............

. Script for blind cash

It sucks being blind I got ripped of a t a drug store buying a bag of Doritos. When I went to pay for it the cashier like took an extra twenty bucks for my three dollar bag of Doritos. Man I was so pissed when I got home when my friend told me I only have ten bucks out of my thirty two that I had before. We need so blind cash for us blind people.

#38bryan

so i was trying to bye my new shoes then i didnt know what the shoes looked like so I just bought a pair that sounded cool I went to the cash register and gave him money I gave him 200 dollers on accident and he said ok bye and jacked my money

IVAN 029

i was at home and i went down stairs to get something to eat and i crashed into the refrigerator i opened the door and got the orange juice instead of the milk when i reached up i got the vanilla wafers instead. i served the cookies and the orange juice and when i tasted it it was nasty 3 seconds later i was in the top bathroom vomiting my guts out my well there is one lesson learned ALWAYS SMELL YOUR FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

39 josue

Hi im going to tell you a lil about being blind well 1st i can tell you that it really sucks because i dont get to see the beatiful world that we live in. And one day i went to the store and there was this man behind me and i had bought some candy and it coast me 4 dollars but since we dont have brallie money i gave him more than i should have ,so Then i had walked away with my candy and then the man behind me thank fuly he was there he had told me i had gave the casher more than i should have and so i got my money back :)
and this is why i think that we should have brallie money

23 johnny

so i was trying to eat some break fast one day i asked for some food i had just went to the bank that day and i asked 4 hundreds and he couldve given me 4 dollars so that day i was eating and i payed the check and he said 6 dollars and i gave him money and i dint have enough so they kicked me out

19 Christian



I think blind people should have braille money because when they go to resturant and the payment is three dollars and the blind person instead pay three dollars but would pay 120 dollars. Also if they pay the 120 dollars the waiter would not be truthful and would just keep the money.

28 Ruben

I go to a restaurant using a walking stick to go ther.When I got there the waiter seated me in a table.He gave me the menu and asked me if I needed help on reading the menu.The waiter was kind inough to read to me the menu I chose a soup.A few minutes later my soup was at the table.The waiter told me that the soup was hot and to be careful.After I finished my soup I then ask the waiter for the bill I ask him if he can read it for me he said that is fine.Then I go to the cash register and the lady tells me its 7 bucks. I then reach for my wallet and before I came in I had 40 bucks. So then I take out my wallet and I take out what I bileve is 5 dollars and 2 dollar bills. I then go back to my house and my mom asks me for 10 bucks then I take out a ten but my mom said it was a 5. My mom then asks me out for all the money I got and she would get the money herself. She said I only had 10 bucks left. Then I get pist off and my mom said that sucks.

33 John Daniels

So i was trying to eat breakfast one day on my own. i thought i would have cereal so i grabbed a bowl and tried to find the cereal. i exidently got the frog eggs becuase i didnt know what i was grabbing. when i tried to put milk in the bowl i got the prune juice instead. when i got a spoon i accidently got a knife instead so when i put it in my mouth i cut my throught and fell on the ground. when i tried to call 911 i called the pet store instead. i had to wait till my mom came home but she thought i was drowning so she gave me cpr which made it worse. when she finally relized i had to go to the doctors the doctors tried to give me sergury and cut my vocal cord out. now i cant see or talk.

12-cassandra braille money

Blind people should have braille money, that would help the blind figure out how much money to give out. It wouldn't be fair to the blind so we should put braille on the money and other things to that will also help the blind.

35-ivonne braille money

i think blind people need braille money because its not right for the people who cant see
get ripped off and the people who can see dont get blamed and no one finds out what they
have done to those people.Also you would never be able to find out how much money you are actually giving to people.

32 Alana :) about brallie

Hi im Going to tell you a little About being blind. And also how it effects your life. Well For me the 1st thing i would say about being bind is that i think it would suck. and The reason for that is because you wouldnt be able to see the beatiful world we live in and if you were with a specail you wouldnt be able to see the one you love.
And you could be blind for like 9 months and still be confused and when you go to the store by your self and it was three dollars you wouldnt be able to tell how much you are really giving so i think we should have brallie money . :)

4 Illianna

For blind people it is very hard for them to use money. I think we should make money into braille. It would be alot easier. For them. People don't understand how hard it is to be blind. We could even put braille on checks, credit cards, wallets,signs, doors, and many other things to help the blind. There are a lot of blind people out there who need help. Shouldn't we help?

11 Alexia Braille money

To make braille money, first I would make a credit card. Since the card is plastic i would make braille on the card. For paper money the dollar has a one five and twenty I would put the braille on the number part of the money. for checks i would make a machine that you put the paper in and it puts braille and all the things you need for a check on it.

Braille money-16 eliza

We should have braille money because money isn't fair to blind people. They can get ripped off by some mean guy and that blind person wont even know it! If we have braille money it will be a easier for those disabled people...and it'll be easier for whoever that blind person is giving the money to.

braille money for the blind

The braille coin is for the blind people and to not get mistaken on giving the wrong amount of money and that in america and that is a big deal of mony and he can give out 100 dollares instedof 1 dolland that why i put dollar coin in braille.

braille for the blind

braille for the blind
people should really try to make a difference between items for the blind and items for people with sight, because blind people like me dont see what others see and it is not fair that they have things that we dont, like money for example. when other people pay for somthing they know how much it costs and what they are giving the person. But emagine how it is for us what if somthing costs 3 dollars and 5 cents and on acedent i give the cashere a 20 dollar bill. i mean in a sense it would be really easy for for a blind person to get ripped off with any perchase that may be made. so we should make braille money for the blind. so that accedents like that one dont happen.
helen pike

Braille Money script Desiree



Don't you think that it is not very fair to blind people like me can't see their money. People should make braille money for the blind. Just think one day a man at a cash register could ask a blind person for 3 dollars and the blind person could give them 3 20 dollar bills. so because of that we should make money for the blind. We should atleast put a braille sign for the number in the corner. Because it is not fair that blind people get their money stolen.

Braille Money



















!!!!!!!!!We need braille money for blind people because their are many mean people in this world and they aren't honest. If someone charges them three dollars they might accidentaly give them $60. Some people would give them change, and others wouldn't. It's really important to make braille bills and coins. !!!!!!!!!!!

36 Desiree Blind Money script for anzueth


people should make money especially made for blind people. They should have money that has the numbers written in braille so that they can feel how much money the bill represents. They should also have it to where the Numbers are bigger so that its easy for them to feel it and give someone the money faster. They should also make coins that have braille writing on them too. They should make machines that say whats on the receipt while its being printed. So people know what its added up to and can make sure that they aren't being cheated.

barbara:] money for the blind


how to make money for the blind.





well you have to make a differece between the money, there should some how be able to read and feel the way teh money feels.


and there should be braille writing on the money.













or some sort of way to be able to put brallie on money, so that the money company doesnt haev to change all there money making machines and stuff.









and there should be created some sort of device that scans the money to be able ot read the value. so the blind are sure of what exactly amount they have. this should be like a hand held scanner and not that big.








kinda like when they scan the baracodes to know how much something cost, they could scan money to know the values.



even with coins, it would be easier to put braille on coins, coins are a more stable material. you cant scan a coin, it might be a bit more difficult to fo that, but with coins it will be surly easy to make the blind able ot read them,,,, i mean feel:]

Solar System Julio:


The solar system is simply a long ring sideways that has planets lined up among it. The planets are made out of a star. A star is a twinkling thing that is very far away from earth. Stars are born and they also die; when they die it is called a Supernova. A Supernova is like a huge explosion. A Supernova is way brighter than the sun; it in fact could outshine an entire galaxy. Now there is a small chance that a Supernova can create a planet or just another star. It can also create a Black hole. Black holes are when gravity has become so; so; so extreme that not even light can escape it. It's shaped like a tornado but bigger and it is in space.

carlos : WHALEY HOUSE

Do you believe in ghouls and ghost? If you don’t visit the Whaley house and you will defiantly change your mind. This official haunted house was built on public gallows. In 1897 Thomas Whaley wife was shot on the 9th step of the stair case and her husband can be seen in all black at the foot of the stair case. If don’t think that’s creepy the first person was a 17 month old child little Thomas Whaley if you stand in his room long enough you might hear the babies faint cry. So go head, if you got guts, visit the Whaley house.

The universe is made up of many different galaxies each galaxy has its own planets which are probably filled with alien life. Each galaxy has its own source of energy like us our source of energy is the sun. Our sun burns nova which would be hot enough to toast a marshmallow miles away the others suns burn at a supernova heat that is why they look like stars from miles away.

be envirementally good to the animals

In any ecosystem, there are innumerable feeding pathways or food chains through which energy flows. Bonds that had joined the atoms together in food molecules are broken and energy is released. The energy is used to power the many activities that enable the animal to grow and survive. Organisms at any one trophic level are dependent on the organisms at the level below them for their energy needs. In nature, many food chains are interlinked in complicated systems called food webs. Therefore, the damage to any one species by pollution theoretically could impact our own survival.
1) Air Pollution can cause respiratory problems in animals other than humans. Smaller animals, as are small children, are more susceptible to distress from higher levels of sulfur dioxide and ozone in the air. The greenhouse effect and global warming may be changing our climate faster than animal populations can adapt. Air conditioners and aerosol sprays that contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's) are contributing to a hole in the protective ozone layer. Do you think skin cancer can only occur in humans? Acid rain has caused fish kills in Canada, Scandinavia and the Adirondacks. Salmon are no longer found in many Nova Scotia rivers.
2) Water Pollution is particularly harmful to marine ecosystems. As previously mentioned, sewage and other waste consume dissolved oxygen, decreasing the concentration available to fish. When we treat our sewage with chlorine to kill bacteria, we also kill marine ecosystems with the chlorine itself, or with carcinogenic chlorinated hydrocarbon byproducts. Mercury bioaccumulates in the food chains and for this reason it can be dangerous to eat large quantities of big ocean fish such as tuna and swordfish. In humans, mercury causes neurological symptoms (felt hat manufacturers developed the "Mad Hatter" disorder) and birth defects. Toxic substances are released by industries and also by accidents. Who can forget the images of the 1989 oil spill by the Exxon Valdez?
More than 1000 miles of Alaskan shoreline were contaminated with 11 million gallons of oil coating tens of thousands of sea birds and killing at least 1000 sea otters. Since oil is nonpolar and insoluble in water, it is very difficult to clean. The area has been analyzed ten years after the event at A National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration Website.
3) Soil Pollution includes the abuse of pesticides like DDT. This nearly caused the extinction of several large birds like the brown pelican, but they have made a dramatic recovery since DDT use in the US was banned nearly thirty years ago. Did you know, however, that DDT is still produced in this country for export to other developing nations whose needs outweigh the problems caused? This toxic substance and others from solid waste are taken up by the plants and animals we ingest. Some people believe in only purchasing food from organic stores which is more expensive since the crop is smaller by not using pesticides. An argument that poorer people have higher cancer rates since they cannot afford to shop organic can be made. Does you family purchase organic food?
4) Aquatic Ecosystems are in peril due water pollutants such as acid rain and mercury contamination. Another problem for local fish is polychlorinated byphenyls (PCB's) from elecrical transformers. This impairs reproduction in aquatic species and has been detected in the flesh of striped bass. Have you heard about the recent lobster die-off on Long Island? It may be linked to the runoff of the pesticide malathion used to eradicate the West Nile virus-carrying mosquitos since crustaceans are closely related to insects. Other toxic chemicals like lead and cadmium cause brain and liver damage respectively and accumulate in the body over a lifetime of exposure. Finally, seemingly harmless thermal pollution both lowers dissolved oxygen and increases respiration rates, killing fish in a positive feedback cycle (ever increasingly). A summary of pollution effects on aquatic populations is available at A Marine Pollution Website.
5) Land Ecosystems are also affected by pollution. Bird populations have been changed by pesticides and oil spills. Bears that rely on fish diets can become contaminated. Mysterious mutations in frogs have been detected in the US. Habitat destruction is the primary reason for extinctions of animal populations. To learn more about what species are endangered, click on The US Fish and Wildlife Service Homepage.
What can be done to save animal populations?
There are many environmental organizations that deserve your support: The National Audubon Society, The Sierra Club, The World Wildlife Fund, and the Natural Resources Defense Council, to name a few. One organization that has preserved local sites for wildlife and takes an active role in saving the endangered piping plover on Long Island is The Nature Conservancy. You can volunteer your services and/or become a contributing member. Think about it.
Conclusions: 1. What is bioaccumulation? 2. How could the extinction of a species in South America affect a human living in New York City? 3. Why don't we use mercury thermometers in chemistry lab anymore?

peta kills animals its so sad

October 20, 2008-->Exclusive: PETA Killed More than 90% of the Animals in its Care in 2007PETA’s 2007 Euthanasia Records Available Only at PetaKillsAnimals.com
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, a group that complains bitterly when animals die accidentally in horse races or intentionally in slaughterhouses, killed more than 90 percent of the adoptable animals in its care during 2007.
Last year, PETA wrangled with the Virginia government for nine months before its 2006 records were finally made public. In a cynical bid to hide the outrageous percentage of animals that wind up in their giant walk-in freezer, PETA's leaders tried to lump the pets they spayed or neutered in with those they took in for more than an hour. That squabbling continues, but this year we decided not to wait for the dust to settle.
Instead, with the help of Virginia's public records law, we did a little digging. Responding to our formal legal request, the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) has released PETA's 2007 "Animal Record" report. Although VDACS itself has still not relased this report, we're making it available to the general public.
PETA claims to be dedicated to protecting animals and treating them "ethically"—it’s right there in the group’s name. But killing animals that could otherwise be placed in adoptive homes isn’t terribly ethical, especially for a group whose $30 million annual income is more than enough to do the right thing instead.
In comparison, the Virginia Beach SPCA, right down the road from PETA’s Norfolk headquarters, managed to adopt out almost 70% of the animals in its care last year. And it did it on a relative shoestring budget.
Adding PETA's 2007 numbers to the mix, we can now document that the group has put down over 19,200 dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens. While it's possible that some of these animals were too broken or sick to be rehabilitated, humane societies in Virginia managed to save an average of nearly 65 percent of their animals in 2007. PETA found adoptive homes for less than 1 percent.
