The famously dramatic elephant toothpaste chemistry experiment! The design features a conical flask containing a cute purple elephant, and overflowing with foam which has a toothpaste style stripe. The experiment demonstrates a chemical reaction involving hydrogen peroxide, washing up liquid and a catalyst e.g. potassium iodide solution or yeast, which produces a sudden expanding foam full of bubbles of gas. The molecule 2H202 and the resulting 2H20 and 02 molecules are represented in the image.
The design is printed onto both sides of the mug.
Available on a plain white mug or on a two-toned mug (a white mug with a coloured handle and inside in your choice of colour).
Dishwasher and microwave safe.
Volume: 12fl oz or 325ml (just over half a pint). Height: 9cm. Width (measured across the top of the mug): 8cm.
