Re: Science bottle rockets please help
The action that makes these rockets fly is Newton's third law of motion. What is that? What force is generated by the vinegar and baking soda, and how would that make the rocket launch?
Have you looked at the description on this site about vinegar and baking soda reactions and their potential use in rockets (https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... background) or found this (http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab ... se-rocket/) on the web?
You might make a list of facts about how rockets fly in general, a few facts on how vinegar reacts with baking soda, and a few on how that reaction might make a rocket fly. Between those three categories your should be able to make a pretty nice list.
