You will need:
- A lemon
- Food coloring
- Washing liquid
- Baking soda
- Some extra lemon juice
For a volcanic eruption with a difference, try making a lemon volcano. Explore the chemical reaction that occurs when the citric acid from a lemon mixes with baking soda. This will not only look, but smell great as well.
* Suggest children predict what will happen when the baking soda is poured into the cavity of the lemon. A bit of mystery invites curiosity and wonder.
* Talk about the smell of the lemon. What does it smell similar to, will the smell get stronger when you add the baking soda?
* Experiment with just how much baking soda is needed for the reaction to occur. Record children’s estimates.
* Introduce new descriptive and fun language such as ooze, squelch, pulp, reaction, citric acid etc
* Consider repeating this experiment with other citrus fruit such as oranges, grapefruits etc.
Thanks for watching!
