Example of scientic experiment procedure:

 

Water bomb

-tools and materials:
§ Water
§ a small measuring cup
§ Plastic with lid tightly
§ Baking soda
§ Vinegar
§ Paper

 

-steps :

1. Scratch paper 10cmx10cm rectangular size.

 2. Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda and then fold a square

 3. Enter into a plastic container 1 / 2 cup vinegar and a small 1 / 4 small glasses of warm water. 

 4. After that, enter the last paper contains baking soda into a plastic wadad and close the meeting as soon as possible.

5. Shake the plastic moment and then away and get down! (not serious).

6. As a result KABOOOOMMMMM plastic was going to explode like a bomb.

WHY? because soda (sodium bicarbonate => NaH(CO3) 2) is alkaline and vinegar (acetic acid => CH3COOH) acid, when the two met then the soda will be decomposed, carbonate will turn into carbon dioxide which causes the gas bubbles.
