Sandwich Bomb

It's a CO2 Sandwich... with explosive results!


Some special guests join Steve Spangler to show the classic baking soda and vinegar reaction, with an explosive twist! These CO2 sandwiches take just a little punch to start the amazing chemical reaction. Then take your demonstration to the next level... throw in a few variables and you have an amazing science project.

Great idea

I always just poured the vinegar and baking soda together and tried to seal the bag quickly. Putting the vinegar in a the small bag and keeping it separate from the baking soda is a good idea. Funny to see your kids hit the bag and set off the reaction.
