Two mixing bowls
Measuring cups
Spoons
Glue
Borax
Green Food Coloring
Water
Borax can be found with laundry detergents in most grocery stores.
Step 1: Mix together 3/4 cup warm water, 1 cup glue and
several drops of green food coloring in the first bowl.
Step 2: In the second bowl, mix together 4 teaspoons borax and
1 1/3 cups warm water.
Step 3: Pour the contents of the first bowl into the second, but
do not stir. Let it sit for 1 minute, then lift the "now
congealed" slime out of the bowl.
Caution: The glue in the slime can make it stick to certain
fabrics.
You have produced a chemical reaction! The molecules have mixed together and interacted. The slime is an example of a polymer, a long chainlike molecule.
