Lava lamps are as easy to make as they are fun to look at.
Step 1: Rinse soda bottle
Empty and thoroughly rinse a large plastic soda bottle.
Step 2: Add oil
Pour vegetable or mineral oil into the bottle until it is three-quarters full.
Step 3: Fill with water
Fill the rest of the bottle with water.
Step 4: Add food coloring
Add several drops of the food color of your choice.
Tip
To make things more interesting, add sequins or glitter to the mixture.
Step 5: Break a tablet
Break an effervescent tablet (like Alka-Seltzer) into several small pieces.
Step 6: Drop one piece
Drop a piece into the bottle. Watch the oil begin to fall to the bottom and then rise in small droplets.
Step 7: Add the rest of the pieces
Continue adding the tablet pieces until they have all dissolved.
Tip
Don't have an effervescent tablet? Slowly pour table salt into the mixture to create the same effect.
Step 8: Move the bottle back and forth
Put the cap back on the bottle. Begin slowly moving the bottle back and forth in your hands until the oil droplets begin to form one big glob.
Step 9: Enjoy the show
Enjoy the show! To really bring out the colors of the blob, illuminate the bottle with a flashlight.
Did You Know?
In 2006, the town of Soap Lake, Washington, agreed to spend $100,000 to install the world’s largest lava lamp, which is 50 feet tall and had been on a billboard in New York City’s Times Square for several years. - Věda a technologie
I tried it, and failed, and got yelled by my mom for wasting a bunch of oil. Afternoon ruined.
I tried it worked I used table salt
+Bobby Kodem Wish I could yell at authors of these vain trash "lava lamp" videos like your mom did with you, because they are adults with no life that teach kids how to waste valuable products like oil for nothing.
+Recipes.Math.Fun.Challenges. so instead of tablets u can use salt right
Me too
lol
Not a lava lamp. more like a demonstration on how oil doesn't mix with water.
No... that burn doe
Aegis Arclight
it's awful though. looks nothing like a lava lamp which defeats the purpose because it isn't fun to look at
No... i have tried it when i was little and it worked perfectly for me
No... true >:(
I mean is good fo ah experiment for little kids💀
Well that was a misleading thumbnail!
i know right.

Oof u have spider on ur profile lol.
Maybe ur profile became old.

Step 10: Now go out and buy an actual Lava Lamp.
lovingreds A
Hahaha
Okay you need more likes XD
Honestly it looks like a fun thing for my autistic son to shake around but I would not fill it up all the way. Something you could use for a small child that is safe without the worry of them actually breaking a real lava lamp.
Umm people actually use this for experiments👉👈💀
Step ten: show us how to actually do it and not waste our time
Popy Owl ikr it did not work when I did it
savage
Tori Vlogging My friend did it and it worked
what a misleading thumbnail..

As long as you add tablets ( or substituted table salt), it lasts.

This is the uh, since experiment where you take a Dasani water bottle and put some oil in it. Shows how water doesn't mix with oil and stuff like that. A cool experiment, sure, but it's no lava lamp. The actual lava in a lava lamp is a wax-like material that rises with heat (the bottom part of the lamp is heated) and falls with cold (the top part is cold)! It's why Lava Lamps have such a unique and discernible design.
