Room 9 is FIZZING!

Wow! What a day Room 9 had. We had fun experimenting the fizzy taste that citric acid, icing sugar, jelly crystals and popping candy made in our mouths. We discussed what was happening in our mouths, and the chemical reaction that was occurring. As the solid of the sherbet and popping candy turned into a liquid with the help of our saliva, the reaction caused the gas carbon dioxide to form in our mouths making the fizzy and popping feeling on our tongues. Check out the process and end result of our sherbet.
