The explosion that occurs when mint Mentos are dropped into Diet Coke is primarily due to the rapid release of carbon dioxide gas. The surface of the Mentos contains numerous tiny pits, which provide nucleation sites for the dissolved CO2 bubbles in the soda to form quickly. As these bubbles rapidly expand and rise to the surface, they create a violent eruption of foam, resulting in the explosive fountain effect. The combination of high carbonation in Diet Coke and the physical properties of Mentos makes this reaction particularly dramatic.
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
An explosion :d
A carbonated drink, usually Diet Coke.
the holes in the mentos
If you combine Mentos and Diet Coke, you could get a big boom. The coke will react with the mentos, making a chemical reaction together and create the giant explosion.
yup
If you put a mentos in the diet coke and put it on the microwave, it will cause a chemical reaction causing your microwave to explode.
no it was some french dude from hungry. he also has a funny accent.
Diet Coke
The best type of Coke for a Mentos explosion is Diet Coke. Its lower viscosity and higher carbonation levels create a more vigorous reaction when Mentos are added, resulting in a taller and more impressive geyser. Regular Coke can also work, but Diet Coke tends to produce the most dramatic effects.
Diet Coke and Mentos produce the largest spectacle.
a two liter bottle of Diet Coke 2 rolls of Mentos mints 1 piece of 8x10 inch paper, like construction paper tape
