Acid in vinegar reacts with sodium monohydrogencarbonate (baking soda) which is present in mentos.
A fake volcano can explode due to a chemical reaction caused by mixing baking soda and vinegar, which produces carbon dioxide gas. As the gas builds up inside the volcano model, it eventually pushes the mixture outward, creating an eruptive effect that mimics a volcanic explosion.
When vinegar (acidic) and baking soda (basic) are combined, they undergo a chemical reaction that releases carbon dioxide gas. This can create bubbles and foam, but it typically doesn't result in an explosion. However, if a closed container is used, the pressure from the gas buildup could result in the container bursting open, which could be dangerous.
Making a fizzy drink explode is dangerous and should not be attempted. Adding mentos candies or other substances to carbonated drinks can create a rapid release of carbon dioxide gas, causing the drink to rapidly foam and potentially burst out of its container with force. This can lead to injuries and is not a safe or responsible activity.
Mixing Coke (or any carbonated beverage) with Mentos candies can create a chemical reaction that causes the soda to fizz rapidly and potentially overflow due to the release of carbon dioxide bubbles. This is not a recommended or safe experiment.
yes it does because of scientific particles in mentos it cools down the water BYE
it will explode everywhere and fizz
They explode because of the baking soda and vinegar mixed in and when there together BOOM.
Yes, but don't try this at home.
Because of the carbon dioxide in the Mentos :)
No, mentos (mint not flavored mentos)make root beer "explode" not skittles.
stop with the mentos and get some pie instead.
Mentos!!

Dropping Mentos into soda will cause it to explode.
you can put mentos in a 2 litter bottle of coke and when you take off the lid it will explode :)
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.
