Natural Science – bottle<br />
rockets<br />
The Grade 9 Natural Science<br />
students were casting their<br />
collective gaze skyward<br />
recently, tracking the trajectory<br />
of their DIY bottle rockets.<br />
After studying the reaction that<br />
occurs between acids and<br />
bases, using a simple mixture<br />
of vinegar and bicarbonate of<br />
soda, they vied for top position<br />
to see who could launch their<br />
rockets the furthest. Grade 9<br />
students, Khwezi Nzuza and<br />
Lesego Molife, launching their<br />
bottle rockets.<br />
