The reaction between Mentos and Coca-Cola is primarily a physical reaction rather than a chemical one. When Mentos are dropped into Coke, the rough surface of the candies facilitates rapid nucleation, allowing carbon dioxide gas dissolved in the soda to form bubbles quickly. This sudden release of gas creates an explosive fountain of foam, as the pressure from the carbonation forces the liquid out of the bottle. The combination of the candy's ingredients and the soda's carbonation enhances this effect.
What else can I help you with?
What happens when you microwave Diet Coke with Mentos inside of it?
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.
How does the temperature of coke affect the chemical reaction of coke and Mentos?
no but if it's warm it's not as tasty
What happens when you mix Coke, Nutella, and Mentos together?
When you mix Coke, Nutella, and Mentos together, a chemical reaction occurs that causes the Coke to fizz and bubble rapidly. This reaction is due to the carbon dioxide in the Coke being released quickly when the Mentos are added, creating a foamy explosion. The Nutella may add some thickness to the mixture, but it does not significantly change the reaction.
Why is Diet Coke and Mentos a double replacement reaction?
Diet Coke and Mentos create a vigorous physical reaction rather than a chemical double replacement reaction. When Mentos candies are added to Diet Coke, the rough surface of the Mentos disrupts the liquid's surface tension and allows carbon dioxide gas that is dissolved in the soda to rapidly escape, resulting in an explosive fountain of foam. This reaction is primarily a physical one involving nucleation, not a chemical reaction where bonds are broken and formed.
Does tic tacs and coke react the same way as Mentos and coke?
Yes, if you have the cap on and let it set a couple minutes. It is a volcano
What happens if you combine a metos candy with Diet Coke?
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.
Which soda has a stronger reaction to Mentos?
I strongly believe diet coke has a stronger reaction to mentos!
What is the reactant in coke and mentos?
In the reaction between Coke and Mentos, the primary reactant is the carbon dioxide gas dissolved in the Coke (the beverage). When Mentos candies are added, their rough surface facilitates the rapid release of this gas, leading to a dramatic eruption of foam. The reaction is primarily a physical process rather than a chemical one, as the carbonation rapidly escapes due to the nucleation sites provided by the Mentos.
What are some cool science fair projects?
One cool project is what chemical reaction does mentos and coke make after mixing them!
Is the Mentos and coke experiment exothermic?
No, its an Endothermic Reaction.
What makes the reaction happen in coke and Mentos?
Well mentos have these small pockets on them where the CO2 can gather on and be released very rapidly. This is called nulceation. There is no chemical reaction caffeine, potassium benzoate, aspartame, and CO2 gas contained in the Diet Coke and the gelatin and gum Arabic ingredients of the Mentos all contribute to the jet effect.
What is the replacement reaction to baking soda and vinegar?
I think that Coke and Mentos will do the trick. It has to be REGULAR COKE!The Mint Mentos will work the best.
