We tested and documented three hypotheses, using two different balloons (water balloons and regular latex balloons), different amounts of water (1/2 cup, 3/4 cup, and one cup), and different # of tablets (1, 5, and 10). While creating each hypothesis, we problem-solved different ways to get the Alka-Seltzer in the balloons and from the balloon to the water -- we have some very smart and creative thinkers!
We also discussed endo and exothermic reactions. We had an endothermic reaction -- we could feel the cold.
Unfortunately, even 10 tablets didn't cause an explosion. The balloon was much larger, but it didn't pop.
