We have another dry ice experiment! YAY! After I put together my simple equipment, I filled the jar with a couple of inches of warm water. I put a block of dry ice in the jar and that familiar wonderful reaction took place!
Attached to the jar was a rubber tube where the smoke escapes. I placed the lid on top of the jar and……..
the smoke traveled through the tube! I dipped the end into a bubble solution and let the smoke travel through the tube. Look at what happened…..
The bubble is filling up with the smoke!
Why isn’t it popping on the towel? The reason bubbles pop on your hand or other surfaces is because of the oils. Towels don’t have oils so they don’t pop! Check this out!
With knit gloves on, I could hold and bounce the bubble around! It was great! It is also amazing when the bubble does pop! It looks like a ghost disappearing.. hence their nickname- Boo Bubbles.
We played with this amazing “toy” until the block disappeared in the jar. With the left over dry ice.. we made carbonated drinks.
The WOW-rating is an 8! Loved it so much! Dry ice has never failed to amuse anyone.
