 * ABSTRACT **


 * The purpose of this study was to see if baking soda and different fruit juices (orange, lime, pineapple, and lemon) would react if other materials were added. When any type of acid is mixed with any type of base the two react will by bubbling. The scientist would mix baking soda and fruit juice, and sometimes the scientist would add other materials like water or salt. It turned out that no matter what was added to the baking soda and any of the four fruit juices it bubbled. It reacted because when an acid touches a base they react no matter what is added. **


 * Experimental Improvements and Future Experiments **


 * To improve the experiments the scientist can pour the juice in the beaker at the same speed. The scientist could also make sure that the baking soda is evenly spread out throughout. A future experiment could be to mix acids and bases then add other household items, and see if an even better reaction happens. **
