Who would have thought that mixing milk and vinegar together would do this

Milk and vinegar lie on opposite ends of the acidity table. Milk is a base, while vinegar is an acid. When you put the two of them together, you're bound to get some exciting results! The chemical reaction that occurs when they are combined (usually with heat) can be quite surprising.

Check out a few different ways milk and vinegar work together to create other completely unexpected substances.

1 . Make milk glue
You can make homemade glue with just a few things you probably already have at home. This experiment showcases a chemical reaction that happens when you mix a base and an acid. Get the full details from Science Sparks.

2. Milk and vinegar make cheese
This fun idea combines milk and vinegar to create a cheese substance. You won't want to eat this cheese because it doesn't taste good, but the experiment shows process similar to ones farmers use to create the yellow food we love so much. Try this experiment from Planet Science.

3. Color changing milk of magnesia
If you've ever had heartburn or an upset tummy, you know milk of magnesia and other antacids can help reduce the pain. This fun visual highlights the chemistry that takes place when an acid and base meet. Check out the eye-popping experiment from Steve Spangler Science.

4.Turn milk into plastic
You might a little less inclined to enjoy a glass of cold milk after you try this experiment. A few minutes in the microwave and some vinegar will let you create a piece of plastic you can shape and paint. Check out the full test at How Wee Learn.
