MENTOS + SODA = ? Problem: Which brand of soda tested spews the most liquid when three Mentos are doped into a 2-liter of each brand? We know that the reaction between Mentos and soda is an explosion, but what we are trying to figure out is which brand causes the biggest reaction. Hypothesis: If three Mentos are dropped into a 2-liter of Diet Coke, Diet 7-Up, and Dr Thunder, then the Diet Coke will have the largest reaction to the Mentos. Materials: 1 pkg. Mint Mentos candies 2-liter
Although the Ferrero Group has been successful in reinventing the Tic Tac to meet customer needs and remaining a top competitor amongst breath mints, it is necessary for Tic Tac to reinvent itself again to remain relevant in the breath mint market.

and the Mentos and Soda experiment is a physical reaction (“Physical and Chemical”). Many may believe this reaction is chemical, but the substance does not change, so it is not. In the following paragraphs I will state three basic points. The first is how the reaction is caused. Second, I will explain what increases the reaction. Lastly, I will provide points to explain what slows the reaction down. Be prepared to indulge yourself in a world of science as I explain the reaction of Mentos and Coke
the Fourth of July? There is something about the exciting human reaction to witnessing these explosions. Dropping Mentos candies into a diet soda to see how high the geysers can be a pure excitement. Is it a chemical reaction or a physical reaction? What causes the geyser to erupt? These are some questions that can be answered by a little research on the qualities of Diet Coke and Mentos. Diet Coke has caffeine and acidity, but these qualities of Diet Coke does not affect the geyser. According to
Coke sinks.”(facts) This paper is a research for Mentos and of Diet Coke to see the effort of the that both affect of both have on each. The Mentos are simple mint the Carbon Dioxide in the soda that help the reaction along. The more pressure the bottle has the better the results. Although science teacher has been dropping candies and mints into two-liter bottle soda for years in the effort to release all of the dissolved the carbon dioxide, the Mentos and Diet Coke reaction became world famous in 2005
the chemicals inside the Mentos and sprite will be more irritated and burst out more violently. This is caused because of something called nucleation which is when carbon dioxide in the soda mixes with the chemicals of mentos the fizz is acting all bottled up like how you shake a bottle of coke but instead with mentos that is x10. The mentos acts as a booster for the fizz so think of it as a variable to make the sprite’s explosion bigger depending on the number of mentos. Some of the ingredients
Invented in 1886 in Atlanta, Georgia, Coca-Cola and Mentos reaction became a worldwide sensation on June 3, 2006 (iml.jou.ufl).

cellophane wrap to not get the fins wet because i am using liquid for my rocket propultion. I will use Diet Coke and Mentos to propel my rocket. The mentos will react with the diet coke and will produce foam at such a fast pace that it will generate enough energy to lift the rocket off the ground. “Well, carbon dioxide is squeezed into the Diet Coke. That is why those sodas fizz.” (1) “The Mentos has a lot of nucleation sites, which is a perfect place for the carbon dioxide in the Diet Coke to produce bubbles
