Neela's Lava Lamp

One very exciting day I brought an experiment to show the class. It was a lava lamp! I was very excited about showing the class!  We even showed Room 22 because they practiced theirs, but it didn't work.

These are the ingredients:



  • water
  • vegetable oil
  • food colouring
  • Berocca tablets, broken into quarters
  • and a funnel.



I poured the oil  into the funnel.
After I had poured in all of the bottle of oil I waited for the water and oil to separate from each
other.
Then I put 12 drops of food colouring.


Then I added the berocca into it.

What do you think happened?
This is what it did - The Berocca bubbled and pushed the food colouring up into the oil in big blobs! It looked like a real Lava Lamp!
