LONGEST LASTING BUBBLE

WORLD RECORD HOLDER FOR THE LONGEST LASTING BUBBLE

• Jeff Pastuzyn made a bubble that lasted for four minutes, 5.97 seconds using a bubble wand.

HOW WERE BUBBLES INVENTED?

• Bubbles are no longer simply soap and water. They were invented by Taiwanese bubble solution expert Jackie Lin, the top-secret solution contains a polymer that allows bubbles to resist evaporation. The polymer reacts with air to harden three to four seconds after a bubble is blown. With little or no disturbance, the bubbles can last as long as 10 days and can be caught with dry hands without popping.

FUN FACT

• Bubbles aren’t usually thought of as weapons, but that is exactly how the snapping shrimp uses them. They create a cavitation bubble that immediately collapses creating a shock wave that, for a moment, is nearly as hot as the sun.

Hypothesis- Glycerin, corn syrup, and body soap make the longest lasting bubble.

PROCEDURE

• Gather materials
• Measure ingredients
• Mix materials
• Put wand in the mix
• Blow bubble
• Set timer
• Repeat 2x
• Gather data

HOW MUCH??

• 2 spoon full of soap
• 1 spoon full of glycerin
• 2 cups of water
• 2 spoon full of corn syrup
• 2 spoon full of shower gel

DATA

• Our first bubble only lasted 2 seconds because we put to much water and no glycerin. Our second bubble lasted 20 seconds because we did not put as much water and used all of our materials + glycerin

RESULTS

• Our hypothesis was correct because corn syrup, bath soap, glycerin made the longest lasting bubble.

In conclusion glycerin,corn syrup, and dish soup makes bubbles last longer than any other substance.
