Final answer:
The question seems to have been misunderstood as it pertains to a physics experiment using a balloon and a plastic loop to demonstrate static electricity, not to actual explosives. The correct steps involve cutting a plastic loop, charging both the balloon and loop with static electricity, and using the charged objects to see the effects of static attraction.

The question seems to be about a physics experiment related to static electricity, using a balloon and a plastic loop made from a grocery bag. Here are the step-by-step instructions:
- Cut the plastic bag to make a plastic loop about 2 inches wide.
- Inflate the balloon.
- Charge the balloon by rubbing it on your clothes.
- Charge the plastic loop by placing it on a nonmetallic surface and rubbing it with a cloth.
- Hold the balloon in one hand, and in the other hand hold the plastic loop above the balloon. If the loop clings too much to your hand, have a friend hold the strip above the balloon with both hands. Let go of the plastic loop and maneuver the balloon under the plastic loop to keep it hovering in the air above the balloon.
By following these steps, you can see an example of static electricity causing attractions between objects. It's important to be careful and follow any safety guidelines provided by your instructor when performing experiments.
