Reorder the following steps of the lab:

• Record the mass of the empty flask and the balloon.

• Pour about 15 mL of vinegar into the flask. Weight the flask & vinegar, subtract the flask weight to find the weight of your vinegar.

• Weigh the empty balloon

• Slip the open end of the balloon over the mouth of the flask, while keeping the baking soda from entering the flask.

• Weight the whole system and record the mass.

Place the reactants and products under the correct heading.
