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.
Usually it's just diet cola that is the most reactive when mentos are dropped in.
Diet coke reacts with mentos because the chemicals in the mentos and cola react to cause the soda's carbon dioxide to quickly turn into a gas an escape from solution. Although the exact nature of the reaction is unknown, it seems to relate to things such as the coating on the mentos and the artificial sweetener in the cola. peanuts In mentos there is sodium and diet coke has carbon dioxide and they are both from the periodic tables and they don't work together.
mentos!!! but only with diet soda!!
because its AWESOME
Well, it doesn't! Both regular and diet explode after dropping mentos in it! It's simply; both have carbonation!
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.
yes it may explode
When a sealed can or bottle is overheated this can explode; but the phenomenon is not specific for sodas.
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!
No mentos only explode in diet it pop if you try regular you will be wasting your time
Yes, dropping Mentos into Pepsi Max can cause a dramatic eruption due to a physical reaction. The rough surface of the Mentos candies facilitates rapid release of carbon dioxide gas from the soda, creating a geyser effect. This phenomenon occurs regardless of the soda brand, but the combination of Mentos and diet sodas like Pepsi Max often produces the most explosive results.
