OPINION
I think my project was fun and it was interesting to learn that the gum base was made of plastics and rubbers. I think my project could have been improved if I used some thing other than soda to try and dissolve the gum. If you are thinking of doing this project I suggest that you use some thing other than soda such as gasoline, dry ice in watter (hot), etc.
If I were to do my project again I would try to melt the gum instead of try to dissolve it.
