Jun 1, 2008 · Abstract and Figures. The Diet Coke and Mentos reaction is a fun demonstration in chemistry and physics classes of many important concepts in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, surface science, and ... ... Jun 1, 2008 · We report on an experimental study of the Diet Coke and Mentos reaction, and consider many aspects of the reaction, including the ingredients in the candy and soda, the roughness of the candy, the temperature of the soda, and the duration of the reaction. ... This simple experiment has enjoyed popularity with science teachers and the general public. Studies of the physicochemical processes involved in the generation of the fountain have been largely informed by the physics of bubble nucleation. Herein, we probe the effect of ethanol addition on the Diet Coke and Mentos experiment to explore the ... ... One factor that may affect the size of the Mentos and Diet Coke eruption is how quickly the Mentos candies sink in the soda. Because a Mentos candy is relatively dense, meaning that its particles are very tightly compacted together, it sinks relatively quickly in the soda. If a Mentos candy were crushed and broken into little pieces, the candy ... ... The Diet Coke and Mentos reaction is a fun demonstration in chemistry and physics classes of many important concepts in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, surface science, and the physics of explosions. The reaction has been performed numerous times on television and the Internet, but has not been systematically studied. We report on an experimental study of the Diet Coke and Mentos reaction, and ... ...

Design an experiment to test your hypothesis and write it up. Make sure it’s something that can be easily and cheaply done in under an hour. Make sure it is not a dangerous experiment; no hazardous chemicals, like strong acids or bases and nasty ... ... It’s been called the “vinegar and baking soda” reaction for a new generation. While science teachers have been dropping candies and mints into 2-liter bottles of soda for years to release all of the dissolved carbon dioxide, the Mentos and Diet Coke reaction became world-famous in 2005. ...
