Density and Buoyancy: Experimenting with Club Soda

Watch as a raisin dances in a cup of club soda, rising and falling in the liquid medium, in this video segment adapted from ZOOM. Look closely, and you'll learn that the cause of this phenomenon is the tiny gas-filled bubbles that attach -- and then detach -- from the raisin, thereby affecting the buoyancy of the raisin.
