Mini blog #3- mentos in a soda bottle

Today I am going to erupt soda in a 2 liter bottle with a mentos



Materials:
> A pack of Mentos
> 2 liter bottle pf soda

Procedure:
- Bring the soda and the mentos outside
- Open the soda
- Put one or two mentos into the soda bottle
- Move away quickly because the reaction is very fast
- Then the soda will be a fountain and explode at a pretty
decent height

Science:
}In the soda there is caffiene, Co2 gas, benzoate, and aspartame. In the mentos there was gelatin and gum arabic which all contribute to the jet affect.the physical structure of the Mentos is the most significant cause of the eruption due to nucleation.The surface of the mint Mentos is full with many small holes, allowing CO2bubbles to form very rapidly and in great quantity, causing the jet of foam.
