Water balloon experiment

in #unschooling6 years ago (edited)


I got a water balloon, put it in a plastic bag and put it in the chest freezer. I also took a normal water balloon and put it in a bucket. I also took another water balloon and left it in the sun. I did it to see what would happen.

I colour coded the water balloons: pink is normal temperature, orange was hot, and blue was cold.

The orange one EXPLODED and stuck to the chair I'm guessing because all I found was the water balloon stuck to the chair. The blue one was extremely interesting, the outer shell was all ice, the inside was water and it popped in my hand ,but it didn't fire water everywhere, it was a solid ball of ice with water in the middle. The pink one was just a normal water balloon.

If you're watching this please enjoy.

Notes from @ryivhnn:

  1. Cub took the videos (yeh he needs a bit of work XD) and I edited them as he hasn't learned how to edit yet (because he won't sit still long enough for starters). Hoping to nudge him along to doing intros and outros at some point. The first part was accidentally taken in portrat mode and rotated in post, wasn't game enough to try scaling it up at the time
  2. if the "take snap" thing isn't saving a proper jpg for you (it doesn't seem to like my Manjaro box very much, failed across three different browsers) use vlc to make one

Awesome experiment my dude :D In the summer I'm gonna' go ahead and try this out too, maybe it will still work in the winter? Who knows! It should, I think, but I guess we will see!

You are a scientist in the making!

thanks! good idea

Very cool experiment!!
Ive always wanted to try that thing people do where they fill up water balloons with water mixed with food coloring, and then they leave them outside in the snow to freeze. Then pop the balloons and have very cool colored ice balls!
I live in Georgia though, and it just doesnt get cold enough for that here.
