During the Experiment What usually causes soda to erupt in this way? Why do you think the Mentos® are able to elicit a similar reaction? Is the evidence and data you are collecting helping you test your question? If you are modifying variables, ask students what the differences are in the reactions between the modification of variables.
All soda or carbonated drinks produce the same result, but many people have observed that the best reaction occurs when Diet Coke is used with Mentos. This is because the drink contains ingredients such as aspartame, potassium benzoate, and carbon dioxide gas, which mix with the gelatin and gum arabic in the candy.
Explosions Introduction Have you ever seen the Diet Coke and Mentos experiment that is all over the Internet and wondered what makes the reaction work? You might think that there is some
Why Does Soda Explode When You Add Mentos? Bursting a Bubble. The bubbles in a bottle of soda are caused by molecules of dissolved carbon dioxide. Generally, water Shaken, Not Stirred. A bottle of soda that gets shaken up releases the gas bubbles into the solution, making the soda Recipe for
But in fact, according to Scientific American, the explosion is a physical reaction, not a chemical one. It all goes back to the carbonation of the soda. The reason that soda is bubbly is because it's pumped full of carbon dioxide and then trapped within a can or bottle, where the gas can't escape.

As it sinks, the Mentos produces more bubbles, which react with carbon dioxide in the soda, rewarding you with a Diet Coke geyser. Speed also matters, and the faster the Mentos sinks, the larger the eruption. Mentos are dense candies, which aids the sinking process — a factor the study explored by comparing reactions made with whole Mentos

Mentos, the makers of Mentos Chewy Mints, explains on its website that soda and other fizzy drinks contain a certain amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) that is dissolved in water in the form of tiny bubbles or carbonation.

Many people assume that the geyser forms when a Mentos candy is dropped into a bottle of soda because of an acid/base reaction, just like when you mix baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and a vinegar solution (acetic acid in water) to create the ever-popular "volcano" science project.
As the Mentos candy sinks in the bottle, the candy causes the production of more and more carbon dioxide bubbles. This leads to the classic Mentos and Diet Coke eruption. The speed at which the Mentos falls through the Diet Coke can affect how large the eruption is.
As the Mentos sinks to the bottom of the soda, it causes the quick production of carbon dioxide bubbles. These rising carbon dioxide bubbles react with more carbon dioxide still in the soda causing it to release as well. The pressure builds up and then creates the eruption or geyser of soda. Make This A Science Project:
Will Mentos explode in any soda? Mentos will result in the formation of a geyser in any carbonated liquid. Diet Coke is preferred because its chemical properties result in the largest geyser.
The temperature of the soda also factors into geyser size. Gases are less soluble in liquids with a higher temperature, so the warmer your soda is, the bigger your Mentos-induced geyser will
The premise is that the Mentos will become exposed as the ice cube melts. When the wax coating of the candy reacts with the diet soda, the drink will fizz and bubble like the classic Mentos and diet soda fountain. If you're doing the project on-purpose or else don't mind getting caught dropping a Mentos into someone's carbonated drink, you can

The crushed Mentos candy should sink slower than a whole Mentos candy. In this materials science project, you will see if using crushed Mentos candies instead of whole Mentos candies, which should sink faster in the soda, will change the height of the eruption. You will crush Mentos candies and then use them to make Diet Coke geysers.
Mentos candies contain millions of cavities, roughly 1-3 μm in size, that remain unwetted when added to a soda. Because of this, the addition of Mentos candies to a carbonated beverage provides enormous numbers of pre-existing bubbles into which dissolved carbon dioxide can escape.
The results showed that Diet Coke created the most spectacular explosions with either fruit or mint Mentos, the fountains travelling a horizontal distance of up to 7 metres.

What is in soda that may help create the eruption as shown in the video? During the Experiment What usually causes soda to erupt in this way? Why do you think the Mentos® are able to elicit a similar reaction?
A Mentos dropped into a bottle of soda acts as a surfactant, meaning it reduces the surface tension of the soda. Water molecules are polar and attracted to each other. Anything that breaks them apart allows for bubbles of carbon dioxide gas to form in the solution.
