  ![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/blog/IMG_2233.JPG)   10 October 2024   [Mrs Lomas](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/author/SharonLomas)   [Year 2](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/category/year-2)

Year 2 have set up an experiment to investigate how food can create gas in the stomach.  They used sodium bicarbonate and vinegar and observed over time the chemical reaction.

Knowledge: I can describe the importance of eating the right amounts of different types of food

Skills: I can observe over time the effect the vinegar (stomach juices)  has on the sodium bicarbonate (food) by producing gas

Vocab: sodium bicarbonate, vinegar, chemical reaction, gas
