Hi!
Your hypothesis can pretty much be anything that you think will happen. Here's the ScienceBuddies guide to writing a hypothesis:

Here is an outline of a similar project that used salt instead of baking soda, so you can take this as an example of what you might end up with:

Hope this helps!

Hey,

One of the biggest things about making a hypothesis is asking yourself "Can I test this? And how can I test it?"

Get your brain clicking and you will be able to come up with an experiment!

Hi,

I would just like to add that your hypothesis should clearly include what you think will happen but also why you think that will happen. I think this will improve your hypothesis...Otherwise it looks pretty good!

Hope that helps,
