This 2-minute video demonstrates chemical reaction in an amusing and highly visual way. Water, dish soap, and potassium iodide are mixed and placed inside a carved plastic pumpkin. Hydrogen peroxide is added last. The reaction is immediate and dramatic: soap bubbles come pouring out of the mouth, nose and eyes of the pumpkin. Resource also includes teacher's guide and assessment.
