Yes, indirectly. It causes the carbon dioxide to leave, which makes the soda less acid (less carbonic acid).
If you drop a mentos in a bottle of soda, the carbonated water would fizzle up and bursts out of bottle like a fountain. Its a very good experiment to impress your friends
It reacts with coca cola.
Nope, both regular and diet soda work. Although Diet soda is preferable since it erupts more violently.
mentos!!! but only with diet soda!!
Well, it doesn't! Both regular and diet explode after dropping mentos in it! It's simply; both have carbonation!
I strongly believe diet coke has a stronger reaction to mentos!
Diet Coke and mint Mentos
Diet Coke and Mentos produce the largest spectacle.
Diet Coke
Mint Mentos.
Adding pepsi and mentod created a powerful eruption of soda that reaches severl feet high diet pepsi or regular pepsi prouduces the same effect ,but regular soda creates a sticker effect.
Only Diet Coke and Mentos will make an explosion, Not Diet Pepsi, Coke Classic, or any other soda will produce an explosion of the same magnitude. that is not true diet root beer (A&W) also works
baking soda and vinegar. diet coke and mentos
I tried it with pineapple fanta in a cup, but it didn't work, but I have found out that it only works with diet coke. It might work in a cup.
