Question
  • Why is that the surrounding temperature of ice cubes is cold and has condensation? What process (reaction) takes place? Is it endothermic or exothermic ?
  • In the photo given, describe which of the experiments are exothermic or endothermic. Explain on how  each reaction should be defined. 
Part 1: Elephant Toothpaste
Materials:
120 mL 3% hydrogen peroxide
1.5 liter empty plastic bottle
Dry Yeast
Food coloring
Dishwashing Liquid
Basin
Warm water
Spoon or Small Medicine Cup
Paper or glass cup
Funnel (if available)
Procedures:
1. Prepare a place where you want to perform your experiment. It is preferable to do it in the
bathroom for easy cleaning and washing.
2. Place the empty bottle in the basin. Then, pour in the 120 mL hydrogen peroxide it into
the bottle.
3. Squirt 1 tbsp. of liquid detergent into the bottle, and swirl gently to mix.
4. Add in 1 packet of food coloring.
5. In a cup, mix together 1 tbsp. of yeast and 3 tbsp. of warm water. Stir for about 30
seconds.
6. Pour the yeast mixture into the bottle. Watch the reaction unfold. Keep a distance away
from the experiment.
Part 2: Ice Breaker
Materials:
Ice (can be ice cubes or in plastic bags)
Rock salt
Ice pick (optional)
2 Water Glasses
Spoon
Small Medicine Cup or Measuring Cups
Procedure:
1. Get some ice from the freezer. If you bought one in the store, crush the ice using an ice
pick into smaller pieces.
2. Label the glasses as Glass 1 and 2. Place the ice in both glasses. Observe the
corresponding effect of the ice in its container for at least 1 minute.
3. After a while, sprinkle 3 tsp. of salt in Glass 1. Wait for 5-15 minutes or if there is
something significant occurs.
4. Check the effect of salt to the ice and compare it to its previous state. You can feel the
container and see differences on its appearance based on observation.
5. Compare the levels of melted water between the two glasses. Separate it from the ice by
pouring it in other glasses. You can measure it with a medicine measuring cup or other
tools.
