Chemical reactions

The last time we’ve had Natural Science lessons was exceptionally special due to the fact that we’ve been doing experiment the whole session. Our very first experiment is called “Black Snake”, which gets its name from the form of the outcome. For this experiment we needed sand, which we’ve put on a tray, then on that we put a mixture of baking soda and sugar. We lit the whole mixture on fire so that the sugar can caramelize then carbonize due to the heat, which we’ve accomplished with the help of lighter gasoline. The baking soda was turned into carbon dioxide, that’s how the snake was created. I believe that this experiment was the most spectacular I’ve ever seen.
