Lydiksen Elementary Weekly Review (3/17/25)

Hello everyone! Last Tuesday(3/11) we had another class at Lydiksen! We had 2 experiments to explore chemical reactions and see how gasses were released to create foam. First we made a lemon volcano using baking soda and we saw how the citric acid reacted to release carbon dioxide and make a cool reaction! We also made elephant toothpaste using yeast and hydrogen peroxide. The yeast breaks down the hydrogen peroxide and forms oxygen, creating foam, similar to the previous activity! Although the elephant toothpaste did react as much as we hoped, the activities were very fun and everyone enjoyed watching the reactions!
