Fill the water bottle or other container about halfway with vinegar. 3. Attach your filled balloon to the container with the vinegar. Make sure the seal is tight!
Spoon. TIP: Before starting the experiment, you will want to stretch out the balloon to make it more loose and easier to inflate. Step 1- Pour 1-2 spoonfuls of baking soda into the opening of the balloon, using a funnel. You’ll need to shake it a bit to get it down into the base of the balloon.

Balloon (1 per student)Small bottle (cleaned glass beverage bottle will work well) (1 per student)Small funnel (1 per student)Baking soda (2 tablespoons per student)What do you think will happen when baking soda and vinegar come in contact (what will be produced)?What do you think will happen to the balloon attached?Why does the balloon stop blowing up (why does the reaction stop)?Using the funnel, add the baking soda to each balloon (two people may be needed for this; one person to hold the balloon open and the other person to put the baking soda inside of the balloon).Pour the vinegar into the bottle.Carefully fit the balloon over the bottle opening (be careful not to drop the baking soda into the vinegar yet).Once the balloon is fitted snugly on the nozzle, hold up the balloon and allow the baking soda to fall into the vinegar.Attach a balloon to the end of the funnel. Using the funnel, pour two level teaspoons (10 mL) of baking soda into the balloon (see photo below). (Make sure the funnel doesn’t clog, and all the baking soda passes through the neck of the balloon.) Pour about 1/2 cup (120 mL) of vinegar into the bottle or flask.
Step 4 – Place two teaspoons of baking soda into the funnel so it falls into the balloon. When the balloon is filled with the baking soda, carefully remove it from the funnel. Step 5 – Next, secure the mouth of the balloon over the mouth of the bottle. Take your time doing this and don’t let any of the baking soda fall out of the balloon ...
