| − | + | Ivory bar soap is a special type of soap that has the ability to float. It can do this because it has air pockets whipped into it during the manufacturing process. It is unique to other soaps because they do not have these air pockets and don’t float. Because of these air pockets, Ivory soap does an interesting thing when it is heated: it expands. You can make your soap expand with a very simple experiment by heating the soap in your microwave at home.<ref name="rf1">http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab/experiments/soap-souffle/</ref> | |
