SODA AND MENTOS Physical Science (3rd block) Mythbusters Project Introduction This experiment is to prove the theory that when Mentos is dropped into a bottle of soda the end result is a huge fountain spray of soda from the bottle due to a process called nucleation. Hypothesis If I drop Mentos candy into a bottle of soda‚ then it will create a huge fountain splash. Materials *Regular Mentos Candy (one)

The reaction between Mentos and the diet soda is a physical reaction that occurs when the gas from the inside of the soda attaches itself to the ridges on the outside of the Mentos. This process is called nucleation and this is when the carbon dioxide is attracted to the Mentos and causes pressure in the bottle (EepyBird). Diet Coke and Mentos are not the only things that work soda and anything with at least a little bit of fizz (carbon dioxide) will react it’s just the matter of the Diet Coke

Experimental Question: What will happen if you dropped a mentos candy in a bottle of diet coke? Why do you think so? Abstract: Placing a mentos candy in a bottle of diet coke will cause bubbles to react. Bubbles are formed and it pushes the liquid up and out of the bottle causing an eruption. I became interested in this topic because my friend helped me choose this topic. Background Research: Sodas have a lot of carbon dioxide (CO2) Mentos candy has thousands of tiny little holes even though

minimum grade of 70%. All sites must be listed after each question. Why does mixing Mentos with soda produce this incredible eruption? Explain the SCIENCE behind it! Mixing mentos and soda produces this incredible eruption because of something called nucleation. The mentos are attracted to the Carbon Dioxide in the soda. After the mentos create so much pressure in the bottle‚ the bottle erupts making the mentos and the coke spray out of the bottle. Another reason why the eruption happens is because

When you combine Diet Coke and Mentos‚ you get an explosive result. The Diet Coke shoots out of the bottle like a miniature sticky geyser. This reaction is so powerful that it could actually propel a rocket‚ but what is the science behind this geyser-creating reaction? (Hiskey) This reaction is caused by the ingredients in the Mentos and Diet Coke. The structure of the Mentos allow carbon dioxide bubbles to form extremely rapidly. When this happens‚ you get the physical reaction of the coke exploding

Mentos is a popular brand of mints sold in many markets across the world by the Perfetti Van Melle Corporation. Mentos was first produced in the Netherlands during the 1950s. The mints are small oblate spheroids‚ with a slightly hard exterior and a soft‚ chewy interior. They are sold in rolls which typically contain 14 candies‚ although the new "Sour Mix" flavour contains only 11. Certain flavours are sold in boxes in the United States and the rolls in three and six-packs. The slogan of Mentos is

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The soda contain sweeteners (sugar or artificial sweeteners) flavoring‚ water and preservatives. Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas is added to the soda trough a high pressure process that causes the gas to dissolve into the liquid‚ when the soda is opened the gas is relieved

Mentos and Coke Materials-12 Fl Oz coke‚ mint mentos‚ and thermometer Purpose-What I wanted to find out is if the temperature affects how the mento bubbles in the coke. Procedure-How I tested my project was to put two 12 Fl Oz cokes one on the counter at room temperature (69 F)and one in the fridge(40 F).Then after 24 hours I took one mento and dropped it in the one that was on the counter at room temperature and timed and examined how it bubbled. Then I got out the coke in the fridge
