Gummy worms

Gummy worms

We are learning how to make Gummy worms. I enjoyed doing the experiment but it was hard to write about it.

Have you ever wondered what makes a polymer?
A polymer is more than a monomer. First mix water (2 cups) into a clear bowl then put 1 tsp of calcium chloride in. Then get a pipette and suck up the sodium alginate (from seaweed). Then squeeze the pipette into the bowl to make gummy worms.
