Hi,
MY science assignment requires me to determine how varying amounts of glycerol/glycerine affect the size of bubbles.

I've looked everywhere but i can only find that glycerol makes the bubbles last longer after being blown. I conducted my own experiment showing that glycerol makes it smaller but i need to confirm it.

All help appreciated

Glycerin - Glycerin is the secret additive that gives a bubble its extra strength. Don't be too shocked by the price on a bottle of high quality Glycerin. Contact the pharmacist at your local grocery store for availability. (Note: Some bubble recipes substitute Karo® Syrup for Glycerin due to the expense and availability of Glycerin.)

You could type this into Google, a lot of results came up: Glycerol bubbles science fair.

thanks for the reply but i've been to these kind of sites and they only tell me how glycerol helps bubbles last longer.

I need to know how it affects size.

Thanks again
