Term two

Hey team!
Long time - no post! here is the video clip I promised you of our C.C.C. completing the canister experiment! Why did the lip pop off? What was the science behind it all? I would love to see some Room 7 people complete some extra research on the science behind all of these experiments we are having fun completing!

  2. Hey Mrs Downie
    I think because of the pressure has caused the canister pop while giving out gas.

    Nesh

  5. You spelt wrong wrong, too.


    I think the pop is caused by gas building up inside the canister, until the pressure is so great the canister flies up.

  7. I think the gas is Carbon Dioxide and it might be similar to http://www.exploratorium.edu/science_explorer/bubblebomb.html
