My science project is, How much gas does your favorite beverage produce? I chose this experiment because I thought it would be cool to do. I drink Fayo orange and Pepsi. I looked at the labels for each beverage. My beverage has 1% sodium, 11% total carbohydrate, and 33g of sugar. Pepsi has 1% of sodium, 14% total of carbohydrate, and 41g of sugar. It would be nice to know what's going inside my body. So I hypothesized that my favorite beverage would have a lot of gas compared to the Pepsi.
Before I started my project I did some research on different websites. I used www.education.com/science-fair/middle-school/. That's the website I found my project on I went on www.youtube.com for comments and questions about the project. The last website was www.google.com. I used Google for more information. I search for information about gas. Every one has gas. Gas in the digestive tract is usually caused by swallowing air and the breakdown of certain foods in the large intestine.

This is how I tested my theory, I used 2 plastic bottles, 2 balloons,
vinegar (2 teaspoons), heating pad, beverage ( Fayo Orange and Pepsi),and a
measuring cup. I put the same amount of vinegar and pop into the plastic bottles. I
put them on the heating pad and waited. I checked on them every 20 minutes.
After 40 minutes they still did not have that much air in them. I shook them up.
After shaking them they began to get bigger. I took pictures to show how big the
balloons got. They started with no air to some air.
In conclusion my hypothesis was wrong. I predicted that my favorite beverage would have a lot of air compared to the Pepsi. I thought it was going to have the most air because of the amount of sugar it contained. One contained more sugar, sodium, and total Carbohydrate. I'm glad I did this project so that, I could see How much gas was in my favorite beverage.
