      Hmm hard to say, I’d imagine some sort of explosion might give off an astounding amount of gas. But then I guess per weigh sodium bicarbonate and vinegar is pretty impressive in terms of gas given off.

      Not sure- there is a lot of carbon dioxide released when you put a polo mint into a bottle of coca cola!!!
