RSC Activity – Toothpaste

I have moved the information on this activity to a new post as it was rapidly expanding. The original post was relating to Physics demonstrations

I have downloaded a worksheet to investigate neutralisation of toothpaste from the Royal Society of Chemistry education resources. Again this could be useful when working in a school.

With the above, I am trying to work out if using Clear (white) Vinegar ( still Ethanoic Acid) is going to be safer in primary schools than using 0.1 M of ethanoic acid.

So part of this I need the Safety data sheet

There is a guide to Carboxylic acid naming here not needed but including for reference.

Update 3/2/2022

I have asked on Science Forums if it is possible to substitute Ethanoic Acid with vinegar in a thread here
