I did that in Science Camp once. When you put mentos in a soda bottle the soda will shoot up creating a little shoot up of soda. Its very fun!
Well you can put mint mentos in coke/pepsi and other drinks, soda, and it will shoot up. Is this what you were asking? Hope this helped.
Yes. Especially when mixed with Diet Coke.
more mentos shake up the soda prior mush up mentos
The number of Mentos needed to make soda shoot up 1 foot can vary based on factors like the type of soda and its carbonation level. Generally, around 1 to 3 Mentos can create a noticeable eruption, but achieving a specific height like 1 foot may require experimentation. Typically, a larger quantity, around 5 to 10 Mentos, is often used to maximize the effect. Each situation can differ, so testing is key for precise results.
It depends on how much mentos are put into it. But you say it's a CAN of soda so i think probabaly about 1 meter
The myth is that Mentos plus soda equals an explosion. The truth is the the soda bubbles up and erupts like a volcano, but does not actually explode.
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".
Maybe a foot. Sodas don't have fins and they have no balance, so they'll go up a little ways, flop over, go back to earth and shoot off horizontally. As to how far it'll go horizontally, it depends on how full the soda was, how large the bottle was and how many Mentos you put in.
yes! put a mentos in it. and shake well. it will blast!
there is a large amount of fruit acid in mentos , so when you react it with another acid they will combine and cause a reaction: if you put a mentos in a can of soda it will erupt, explode, ect. like an explosive volcano due to the fact of the acid. Above answer is completely wrong, there are tiny nucleation sites on the mentos where the CO2 of the soda's carbonation turns to real gas and fizzes up through the tiny opening. as a result of all the bubbles, the soda literally is pushed up and out of the bottle into a soda geyser.
When it comes to the classic experiment of dropping Mentos into soda, Diet Coke is often considered the most effective soda for producing the largest fountain effect. The reaction between the Mentos and the carbonation in Diet Coke creates a rapid release of gas, causing the soda to shoot up and propel balloons or other objects. Other sodas may produce a reaction, but Diet Coke typically generates the highest geyser effect due to its formulation and lower viscosity.
