materials
Gummy worms
Baking soda
Vinegar
Water
1 transparent glass
Instructions
First cut the worm lengthwise into four pieces and place them in a glass full of warm water with three tablespoons of baking soda for 15 minutes.
Then remove the worms from the glass with a fork and introduce them in another glass with vinegar. In a matter of seconds the worms will begin to cover themselves with bubbles and to rise wriggling towards the surface.
Explanation
When the worms impregnated in baking soda with vinegar come together, a chemical reaction occurs that causes the formation of gas bubbles (carbon dioxide) around the rubberworm, which immediately rises to the surface.
Once the gas bubbles burst, the worm falls down and becomes covered with bubbles that make it rise again, and so on until one of the two reagents (bicarbonate or vinegar) is exhausted.
