Building a Volcano

Making a Volcano

Equipment:

1. Ice cream container lid
2. Plastic bottle
3. Scrap paper
4. Sellotape
5. Flour
6. Water
7. Plaster
8. Paint
9. kI+H202

Aim:
To create a volcano and then hopefully make it explode.

Method:
Put the bottle in the middle of the container.
Sellotape the plastic bottle onto the container.
 Collect your scrap paper and scrunch it up,  then sellotaping it to the bottle into a volcano shape like figure.
 Get flour+water to form a paper mache glue.
Plaster the whole volcano.
 Paint it adding texture to the volcano.
Add the chemicals to make the eruption.

Observation:
We took dishwashing liquid and then we added Hydrogen Peroxide and Potassium Iodide and we watched a whole bunch of foam burst out!


Here is a video of People making a volcano, sadly I was not able to find a video of them using flour and water as a glue.
