Virginia Tech- KTU exhibit- "Homemade Lava Lamps"

Homemade lava lamps can be made from supplies found around the house! All you need is an empty water bottle, food coloring, vegetable oil, and alka seltzer. First, fill up the water bottle a bit more than halfway with vegetable oil. Second, fill the rest of the bottle with water leaving about an inch of space at the top. Third, add TEN drops of food coloring. Fourth, break an Alka Seltzer into 4 pieces and drop it into the bottle one piece at a time. Add the next piece after the first one stops bubbling. Finally, watch the magic happen!

We are Virginia Tech's chapter of the national organization - American Medical Student Association (AMSA). Pre-health students in the club take part in meetings and different professional activities in order to gain knowledge in different health fields and to help prepare them for the transition to professional school.
