Diet Coke

Yes, it does; however, it is still drinkable.
Because the chemicals in diet coke react with the chemicals in the mentos, Normal coke has the same chemicals that mentos has, that is why you need to have a positive and negative to react, Normal coke and mentos is positive and positive.
Mentos, of course _ | | / \ | | | | | | |____ |
The record is 20 meters
idk that's why I googled it
quantity of diet coke, number of mentos, diameter of hole, amount of CO2, different types of Mentos. that's not all possible, but that's quite a few.
Steve Spangler first conducted the Mentos and Coke experiment during a demonstration at a science fair in 2001. The experiment gained widespread attention when he showcased it on local television in Denver, Colorado. This demonstration highlighted the explosive reaction between Mentos candies and Diet Coke, leading to its popularity as a fun science experiment.
It is really just to show younger people how different things react, usually after performing this experiment the class will be taught the meaning of the terms independent, dependant and controlled variables and will identify these terms within the experiment. Eg. INDEPENDENT: flavours of mentos/ coke DEPENDENT: height of reaction (spurt) CONTROL: Level mentos is dropped from.
The classic experiment using Mentos and Diet Coke typically suggests using around 4 to 5 Mentos candies for a dramatic reaction. This amount is generally sufficient to create a significant geyser effect with 600ml of Diet Coke. However, the exact number can vary based on factors like the temperature of the soda and the specific Mentos used. Always conduct the experiment outdoors for safety!
Diet Coke and Mentos produce the largest spectacle.
