Last week we completed a science experiment titled ‘Fizzing Investigation”. Our aim was to investigate what happened when you mix combinations of water, tartaric acid and bicarbonate soda together.


We placed the mixtures inside bottled with balloons over the top. We made predictions and then recorded our results. Finally, we wrote up our findings and conclusions.


Conclusion: When you mix water, tartaric acid and bicarbonate soda together the water fizzes and gases are sent up, causing the balloon to fill with air.

  1. Hi!

    The investigation was amazing. We used bicarb, acid and water to make things work.
    First we used bicarb and acid; nothing happened.
    Next we used bicarb and water; it made the bottle look cloudy.
    Next we used acid and water; it made it cloudy.
    And finally we used bicarb, acid and water; the balloon fizzed up!
    See you later!
