Autrina, Evan, Nick and I made bath bombs, with already made essential oils to see how they should look. While we were making the bath bombs we had a hard time getting them to stick together but in the end they turned out great, they worked really well. The science behind the bath bombs is that to make the bath bombs you need to use citric acid and baking soda and when they are put in water they react and that's what make the bath bombs fizz and dissolve.
Looking back: In the end they turned out very good, the most challenging part was trying to get the halves to stick together but luckily we were able to.
Looking beyond: On a molecular level when the ingredients were dry they didn't react but when we put them in water they reacted and that's what makes them fizz. While doing this project I didn't really have any questions.
Looking inward: We got desirable results and I think what contributed to tat was that we worked well together and we got some help from classmates who have already made them and knew what we could do to make them better.
Looking outward: I worked with Autrina, Nick and Evan and I think my partners and I did very well we all contributed evenly and worked together. I would definitely want to work with them again.
Looking forward: If we were to do this again I would want to use smaller mold so we can make more bath bombs. If we wanted to continue this project we could make our own essential oils to use in the bath bombs.
Takeaways: A takeaway from this project is to prepare as soon as you can because when we wanted to start them we didn't have all of our materials.
