Because at a microscopic level, the shell of Mentos is very uneven, and the carbonated bubbles in the soda are immediately attracted to them. This results in a disruption of the surface tension of the soda, which causes all the carbon dioxide to escape the liquid at once. For a better explanation, see the Related Link below.
Mentos.
you can use Mentos and baking soda
yes but not that much lke mentos
You need to add carbonated water .
Rather explosively. When you mix Diet Coke and Mentos, they will fizz like there's no tomorrow. If you want to try this, do it outside.
Mentos,vespecially if the soda is Coke or something with caffeine
the soda gets to much fizz and it xplodes thanks to the mento???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
more mentos shake up the soda prior mush up mentos
Mentos makes a geyser shaking it just make it fizz over the top but if you take diet coke and two mentos put in the mentos then the top really quick and shake it up and throw it on the street (far away from you) you will be pretty satisfied.
I did that in Science Camp once. When you put mentos in a soda bottle the soda will shoot up creating a little shoot up of soda. Its very fun!
Well you can put mint mentos in coke/pepsi and other drinks, soda, and it will shoot up. Is this what you were asking? Hope this helped.
Mentos fizz because of the nucleation sites on the surface of the Mentos. These are basically microscopic holes and when it comes into contact with the coke all of the dissolved carbon dioxide condenses and form bubbles that wear away layers of the mentos where more nucleation sites are accessible by the carbon dioxide.
