Innovating Science® - Distance Learning: Elephant Toothpaste

Distance Learning: Elephant Toothpaste


Product # IS1501

This activity is a fun, safe way to teach students the effect a catalyst has on a chemical reaction. The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide can be visualized by mixing in a small amount of dish soap and adding yeast as a catalyst. As the reaction occurs, a large amount of foam is formed that flows up and out of the reaction bottle. This kit contains an Instruction Manual and enough materials to perform the demonstration twice.
