Air Bag Lab

In this lab, we simulated the inflation of an airbag using a ziplock bag using baking soda and vinegar. To prevent the bag from not filling up or popping, we used stoichiometry and gas laws to calculate the right amount of both ingredients needed from the volume of the bag. To receive full credit, our teacher would pinch the bag and if both sides didn't touch or the bag didn't pop we would pass the lab. Luckily in our class, no one's bag popped and we all passed.
