Make a Super Bouncy Ball

Step 1 Materials needed

This bouncy ball is made using a reaction between the two following chemicals:

- Alcohol (Ethanol) - You should be able to get this at any supermarket.
- Water glass (Sodium silicate) - Pretty easy to find at ceramic supply stores drug stores and hardware stores. I buy mine for about 3$ per 1/2 litre.

You will also need:

- Disposable rubber gloves
- 2 small beakers
- Popsicle stick

... and that's it! Now that wasn't so bad at all, was it?

Where do you get the sodium silicate at a hardware store

IT IS NOT SILICIUM SILICATE! WATER GLASS IS SODIUM SILICATE. ALSO KNOWN AS SILICATO DE SODIO IN SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE.
