Science Behind Scitech: Bubble Tube

Come behind the science of our bubble exhibit as Jae explains why they rise to the top.

You have reached the main content region of the page.

We go deep into the science of bubbles!

Why do bubbles form when we force air into the bottom of a tube filled with silicone gel? Why do they rise to the top and why are they different sizes? Jae explores density and the effect of changing experimental variables in this video on bubbles.
