Thru the Microscope

Students can create plastic from a synthetic material! This is a 2-part experiment with background information and steps to create fun plastic using milk and vinegar or cornstarch and water! Students can take their biodegradable home with them as a souvenir!

The law of conservation of mass indicates that mass cannot be created nor destroyed. Using vinegar, baking soda and a sealed plastic bag, students determine the mass of the vinegar and baking soda. Students then seal the vinegar and baking soda in a plastic bag and mix the substances. Students will determine the mass before and after any reaction occurs. This lab includes a two-part procedure: open vs closed system, a list of materials, conclusion questions and an ANSWER KEY!

In a fun activity, students measure the mass of the lollipop after so many licks. Students then graph their data. This activity allows students to effectively use the scale and learn how to graph data. Students will enjoy it so much, they often forget they are learning.
