Elephant toothpaste

For today’s reading we made elephant toothpaste. To make this we used:

1. Warm water
2. Two packs of yeast
3. Red food colouring
4. Dishwashing liquid
5. Hydrogen peroxide

We had to mix them in two different cups and then join them together to make the toothpaste flow over the cup. Our group had the best elephant toothpaste because our toothpaste over flew in a slow paced and it looked cool. I really enjoyed doing this experiment and I hope to do it again.

Scientific Method

    Chemical Change Fire.

Ask a question: What will happen when we combine both together?

Construct a hypothesis( make a guess) The paper will change colour.

Conduct the experiment:

Record your observations and data: Colour change, Irreversible, temperature change, release of gas, change to ashes & smell of smoke.

Analyse information: When the paper was lit a new substance was made and it became irreversible.
