Learn about catalyzation and how to make a few ounces of liquid into a huge column of foam! Our host explains the science as he mixes hydrogen peroxide, soap, yeast, and warm water to create what’s called elephant toothpaste. The yeast and warm water is mixed together first before the soap is added. Finally, the hydrogen peroxide is added to create a surprisingly large chemical reaction. Get your gloves and safety goggles and try it yourself!
