500

When we closed the bottles of Lava lamps and re-opened them, we noticed a mini bomb-like explosion caused by?

The pressure built up from the reaction of baking soda and vinegar

500

Why was a desk, not an ideal surface for stacking cards

A desk was smooth, and slippery which could have made the cards more easily fall or slip, while a towel provided more stability
