  EXPERIMENT 1 : Color Changing Milk 

What we need:

  Milk

  Liquid soap

  Liquid dyes

  Plate

  Cotton bud

How we do:

1.  Pour milk to a plate

 2.  Add liquid dyes (prefer more than two

colours)

 3.  Dip a cotton bud into liquid soap

4.  Dip the cotton bud into one of the colour 

above the milk

5.  See what’s happen next  

Why that happens:

Basically soaps and fats have the opposite properties. Interaction between soap with the fat in the milk

causing milk fat 'run' to avoid catches of soap molecules.

 EXPERIMENT 2 : volcano eruption What we need:

  Water 

  Liquid dyes

  Baking soda

  Vinegar 

  Liquid soap  Plastic plate

  Plastic cup

  Duct tape (lakban)

  Aluminium foil

  Spoon

How we do:

1.  Place the plastic cup above the backside

 of plastic plate, attach with duct tape

 2.  Cover it with aluminium foil, then make a hole as big as the plastic cups

 3.  Pour the water inside, add the vinegar and liquid soap, stir it, then add the baking soda for the

last 

4.  See what’s happen next  

Why that happens:

The bubbles that are created are filled with carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is a gas that forms when

the vinegar (an acid) reacts with the baking soda (a base). For all you bakers out there, this is also

what makes cakes and quick breads (the no yeast kind) get all nice and fluffy.

 EXPERIMENT 3 : egg inside a bottle What we need:

  Egg

  Empty glass bottle

  Hot water / paper and lighter 

How we do:

1.  Fulfill the glass bottle with hot water,

wait for a minute, then empty the bottle

again or make a fire with the lighter then

light the paper inside the bottle

 2.  Place the egg at the mouth of the bottle

 3.  See what’s happen next  

4.  To get the egg back out the bottle, rub

some water with your finger around the

edge of the bottle opening (inside). Turn the bottle upside down and let the egg fall into the

opening of the bottle mouth. Notice it does not want to come out. Now place your mouth over 

the mouth of the bottle while holding it upsidedown. Blow really hard. No really hard. And see what’s happen next. 

Why that happens:

When we ignite the piece of paper it heats the molecules of air inside the bottle. This makes

the molecules expand and move away from each other. They go up and out of the bottle with the heat 

from the fire. Once the fire is extinguished the air cools down, but the egg on top of the bottle prevents

new air from outside from entering the bottle. This means the air pressure outside is greater than

inside the bottle. As a result the greater air pressure outside pushes the egg down into the lower 

pressure bottle.

  EXPERIMENT 4 : fire water balloon 

What we need:

  Water 

  Balloons / plastic cups

  Candle

  Lighter 

How we do:

1.  Light the candle

 2.  Blow up the balloon, place it above the

candle

 3.  See what’s happen next  

4.  Blow up another balloon, add water 

inside, place it above the candle

5.  See what’s happen next  

Why that happens:

When we directly heats the balloons/plastic cups filled with water, heat flows from the heat source

across the surface of the balloons and passed on to the water. However, instead of melting due to the

heat generated, the water becomes hot.

 EXPERIMENT 5 :  water drainage What we need:

  Water 

  Liquid dyes

  Plate

  Empty glass bottle

  Candle  Lighters

How we do:

1.  Place the candle in the middle of the

plate, light it 

 2.  Colour the water with liquid dyes, pour 

into the plate

 3.  Cover the candle with empty bottle

4.  See what’s happen next

 Why that happens:

To be able to light up, fire needs oxygen. When the candle covered with bottle, oxygen is available only

in the glass just as much. When oxygen in the cup was discharged, fire seeks oxygen drift outside the

vessel, thus sucking the water at the plate. When the water is sucked completely into the glass, oxygen

is no longer penetrate the water layer so that the fire was dead.  EXPERIMENT 6 : floating egg 

What we need:

  Egg   Salt 

  Water 

  Glass / plastic cups

  Spoon

How we do:

1.  Fulfill the glass with water 

 2.  Put the egg inside the glass

 3.  Add salt gradually, stir it 

4.  See what’s happen next  

Why that happens:Because when we add the salt, density (ratio of object weight to volume) of water increases. In other 

words, the higher level of the water viscosity. As the density increases, the float force will be greater.

In other words the lesser density (egg) will be above the greater density (water).
