Best Answer

What happens when you put a straw in a glass of Coke or any other carbonated beverate, is that bubbles of carbon dioxide form on the straw and cling to it, and since these are lighter than water, they tend to lift the straw up out of the Coke; when it is lifted high enough it will become unballanced and fall out of the glass.

What is colder a can of coke or a glass of coke?

I would say the glass of coke (served with ice-cubes in it) is colder than the can.
