For this years science expo we had to do an experiment based on food science or environmental science.I chose food science and I did Dancing Noodles and Dancing Corn.I decided to do this experiment because it is something nice to watch and it's easy and simple to do if someone wanted to try to do this experiment.I saw a few kids do this experiment last year,so I decided to also do it.I also found this experiment on You tube.I worked alone for this experiment,it's really nice working alone because you can do everything by your self and you don't need to stress if you do it with a friend.It's also a bit challenging to get to each other's houses and do the experiment.At first when I practiced my experiment at home it didn't work.But my mom realized what I did wrong,so I tried again and the noodles and corn danced even better than I thought it would.They both danced for a really long time.The noodles danced for 2 minutes and 45 seconds and the corn danced for 5 minutes and 02 seconds.I was a bit stressed about the fact that the noodles didn't dance at first,but when I tried again it went really well.I enjoyed making my poster and making it beautiful for the science expo.Unfortunately I wasn't there on the scienc expo day because I was sick and didn't get the chance to do my experiment.Usually on my science expo day I feel confident but also a bit nervous if I mess up anything or forget my information.Otherwise my experiment worked really well at home and I enjoyed it.
If you would like to do this experiment at home you will need:
*White spirit vinegar
*Bicarbonate of soda
*Cooked noodles
*Corn
*water
*food coloring
* A measuring
*Table spoon
*2 Large glasses
Method:
1)Measure and add to cups of water to your glass.
2)Then add two cups of vinegar to your water.
3)Add 3-4 drops of food colouring to your water,mix the water after adding food coloring so that it spreads around in the glass.
4)Add cooked noodles to one glass and corn to the other.
4)Lastly add 1 table spoon of bicarbonate of soda to your glasses.
5)See what happens next.
Thank you for reading and I hope you will enjoy making this experiment!
