why did the popcorn dance

have you ever wondered how to make popcorn dance well room 7 has we did an experiment to see if we could do it was hard but we managed to do it all you need is a glass of water 3 quarters filled food colouring vinegar popcorn kernals bakeing soda and a spoon first you get a glass of water 3quarters filled then you add. the food colouring to it and stir after you add the vinegar to the cup then you add a couple of popcorn kernals into the cup after you've added all the other ingredients you put in the bakeing sodaRemove formatting from selectiona then you stir 3 times but when the bakeing soda got added the popcorn. started danceing but when 1 popcorn kernal went back up 3 more went back down the reason 3 more went back down was because the bubbles came off the popcorn kernals but when the popcorn kernals hit the bottom they got more bubbles on them so they floated back up to the top. they were floating up and down an theres so much cool things to tell you like the food colouring made it green it was so so fun
