__**//Your Plan and/or Questions://**__

I plan to experiment with popcorn.

Why is this an explosion? How does the kernel turn into the popcorn we all love?  How do different brands of popcorn explode?  Do things like butter or other seasonings effect the explosion? What happens if you place the 'this side up' side down?  Do the kernels left over have anything to say about the explosion?  How are explosions with popcorn kernels contained? Is this an explosion?


 * //__Information:__//**

Even if the popcorn kernel seems dry there is moisture inside. That moisture vaporizes, when heated up, creates an increase in pressure causing the kernel to explode.

When the kernel is heated up, the starches inside are super-heated, but when they touch the cooler air, the starches become immediately cool. When this happens the starches congeal and form the popcorn we love.

The way they are contained is by using the bag in the microwave.

<span style="color: #1e7e11; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 120%;">Popping popcorn would be considered an explosion because the kernel explodes into the popcorn shape because of vaporization and the starches super-heating, and congeals.
