A chemical Reaction the mentos mix with the acid causing foaming the pressure gets to much and bursts the bottle
mentos or you shake it
You can mix coke and mentos together and it makes an explosion
There are chemicals in the soda called Potassium Benzoate and aspartame that react with other chemicals in Mentos like the gelatin and Arabic gum.
because when mentos is added with car bon dioxide it becomes a chemical reaction and soda has carbon dioxide BUT THE MOST SODA THAT WILL GO 20 FEET WILL BE DIET COKE
The reaction between Mentos (containing nucleation sites) and soda (containing carbon dioxide) is a physical reaction that causes the rapid release of carbon dioxide gas. This reaction is not a chemical reaction, so there is no balanced chemical equation for it.
which soda is best for a soda and mentos volcanic explosion! have you ever seen someone place mentos in a soda drink? it explodes! you could do an experiment on what type of soda makes the best/largest explosion!
because a chemical reaction happens to make it explode
When adding the candy Mentos to a carbonated soda there is an amazing explosion. The explosion is best when using diet coke because the aspartame and potassium benzoate of the soda mixing with the arabic gum and gelatin of the candy causes the soda to explode out of the two liter container. Th ephenomenon is apparently caused by a surface catalysis of the production of carbon dioxide from the soda drink- the surface of mint Mentos is said to be ideal. The other agets are good for producing a nice foam.
I think its mentos
Mentos,vespecially if the soda is Coke or something with caffeine
