Learn: We learnt how to make sherbet we are investigating and exploring chemical reactions
Create: We created sherbet to share with ourselves and our whanau/ family
Share: We have written the instructions on how to make sherbet here.
In a bowl mix the ingredients
Icing Sugar 1 teaspoon
Baking soda ¼ teaspoon
Raro or some other flavour ½ teaspoon
Put in bag and mix
When you take it what do you observe: Sour, sweet, fizz, foam, chemical reaction, bubbly.
What is happening? The baking soda is a base and the citric acid is an acid. The icing sugar and (Raro) flavour and there or taste. As a solid the acid and the base do not react but in the presence of moisture (saliva) the citric acid and the baking soda react to give off carbon dioxide gas - this feels like a popping or fizzing sensation! Citric Acid ½ teaspoon
Icing Sugar 1 teaspoon
Baking soda ¼ teaspoon
Raro or some other flavour ½ teaspoon
Put in bag and mix
