Science Club - Bath Bombs
Posted on: 13/10/2022Science Club was full of excitement as usual this week. Future chemists created their very own bath bombs via the reaction of sodium bicarbonate and citric acid to take home with them. Students had to be very careful to use a pipette to put the liquid ingredients in very small amounts to their dry ingredients to ensure the chemical reaction did not take place - for now at least. Students also considered the scientific method and explored how changing the ratio of the ingredients affects how much the bath bomb fizzes when it comes into contact with water. The club was certainly more fragrant than ever!
We are looking forward to next week…
Coming up: Halloween at The Compton Science Department: Shark Attack on Wednesday 19/10/22
And huge thanks to our fantastic sixth form students, Rangina, Selin and Aorela for assisting Science Club.
