WARNING!
Don't drink bleach! Don't drink beverages mixed with bleach or anything containing bleach! Conduct this experiment only in presence of grown up persons!
Bleach. It's present in every home. Bleach is a chemical product, used to make materials whiter, change hair color to lighter and remove stains. It is typically a solution of sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide.
Bleaches generally react with many organic substances, other than the intended color pigments. They can weaken or damage natural materials like fibers, cloth, and leather, and intentionally applied dyes. For that reason, ingestion of the bleaching products, breathing of the bleach fumes, or contact with skin or eyes can cause health damage.
In this experiment we mix bleach with coffee, red wine, soft drinks - Coca Cola and Fanta, Guinness dark beer and Blackberry juice.
Coca Cola and Fanta lose their color instantly, but other drinks not so fast. Interesting fact is that after 45 minutes, some beverages begin getting darker again.
