It seemed like a simple concept: Pour some baking soda into vineger and get some photographic fizz. Well, (at least) 20 shots later....
(It still needs a tripod and better lighting.)

the pic looks a little soft - i can't tell if its the focus or the background. My suggestion would be to use a more contrasting darker color for the background to "bring out" the main subjects more.

The idea is good but the background is a bit distracting and the shot seems a little washed out (ie: black text on vinegar bottle isn't very black)

Close :) First you get carbonic acid, which immediately decomposes to CO2 and water. The nasty stuff you're left with is sodium acetate. And that's your chemistry lesson for the day. Nice pic!

too washed out looking, a seamless white or black background would look much better here. Lighting could be improved. 5

The pink sheet doesn't add any interest to this, it detracts from it. Good job capturing motion. Needs better focus as well.

You sure had the right idea here...it's science. The drape is poor and doesn't really inhance the colors of the box, beaker or bottle. Maybe a little different light would also of added. Still your on topic for the challenge.

I considered these elements myself for this challenge - colours are a bit washed out looking to me, but definitely meets the challenge. 6
