Coke makes the tallest geyser because the particles are more tightly compacted together so that when the mentos makes contact, the particles interact the most.
You need a diet coke , a straw and some mentos .First, open the diet coke. Then ,put the straw inside .After that , put a mentos inside quickly and run away because it will flash on you if you are at the place. It is very exciting because it will flash very high if put a lot of mentos inside . Why does it happen? Just because the diet coke won't have alot of sugar and if it touch some sweet things suddenly , it will be a diet coke geyser.
The ingredient in diet soda that makes it a popular low-calorie alternative to regular soda is artificial sweeteners.

When you put mentos candy into diet coke it explodes. Or if you shake a soda bottle before opening it, it will explode as well.

The main factor is the sweetening agent. Regular soda sweetens with high fructose corn syrup or sugar. Diet soda uses aspartame
pepsi
The sugar.
Noothing is smooth, everything has little "potholes", although they are minisclue and not visible. Mentos have a lot of these little holes in them, where air can get trapped. When dropping a mento into a soda, the air bubbles release, this causes some bubbles to form and exit the bottle. The roughness of the candy also reacts with the gas in the soda, forming more bubbles that are trying to get the the surface. These bubbles form the "geyser".
because the mint from the mentos and the gas from the soda make a gyser.
Mentos dropped into diet sodas will cause the CO2 to come out of solution very quickly. It is believed that the irregular surface of the candy provides an ideal location for bubbles to form and accelerates the process many times the normal speed, causing the geyser of soda to spew out of the top. Just about any diet soda will work and it goes about 10 feet!
Regular Mentos are preferred for geysers because they have a smoother surface compared to fruit-flavored ones, which can have a coating that affects the reaction. The smooth surface allows for a rapid release of carbon dioxide from the soda, creating a more explosive geyser effect. Additionally, the combination of regular Mentos and diet soda is known to produce the best results, maximizing the geyser height.
