Question: Diet Coke and Mentos Experiment help?

When I showed my science teacher my proposal, he said that it would be better if I had more variables to it. So here are some of what different kinds of variables would work..

>To try use the different colored mentos, to see if it would still have the same explosion..

>To try change the height of Diet Coke

>Diet coke vs. Regular Coke and Mentos?

Is there anymore diffferent experiments I could use? And also, can you pick my final experiment on which to do? Thanks in advance

Answer: well, the physics behind diet coke and mentos is that the chemical reaction is sped up so violently because there are many nucleation sites in the mento—lots of tiny holes, adding surface area. what you could do is crush up a mento and see what it does then.

you could also try just sparkling water and see what it does without the additives of diet coke.

I would do all of your proposals plus sparkling water, regular old tap water and maybe put some equal sweetener in sparkling water (aspartame is what is in diet coke), and maybe some sugar in another one (what’s in regular coke) to see if that has any effect on the explosion…also try varying the volume of liquid and the number of mentos

Question: Chemistry project?

Pls suggest a Chemistry experiment/project for Science Exhibition. Baking Soda Volcano is like a 10th Grade project and it is the only thing I can think of. I dont want to do that. I’m in senior year high school.

Answer: hey then you can go in for electroplating

Question: Mentos and Diet Coke Experiment?

me and my friend are doing a science project about the reaction of mentos and diet coke. we want to do this experiment, but does it work with a 1L bottle of diet coke? or does it just work with the 2L bottle????

Answer: it works
