For my GATE class, I want to introduce my students to a commonly known exothermic reaction; elephant toothpaste! In order to reach the kind of learning and teaching I want to attain, I want all of my students (safely and following established lab procedures) to mix the various components of the elephant toothpaste and observe the exothermic reaction! Students will wear the necessary safety equipment (lab glasses and lab gloves) when combining chemicals. I will be pouring the hydrogen peroxide for them. At first, we will learn about the chemical reaction and the science behind the actual demonstration, then students will see it in action. Students will pour a mixture of yeast/water and food coloring into the flasks. I will be pouring the hydrogen peroxide (6%) into their flasks. Then students, on my mark, will pour the yeast/water/food coloring and liquid dish soap and observe the reaction. The 35% hydrogen peroxide will be used outside and only by me to demonstrate how changing the catalyst changes the actual demonstration (it makes it more violent!)
