What happens if you mix Coke and Mentos?

As the Mentos candy sinks in the bottle, the candy causes the production of more and more carbon dioxide bubbles, and the rising bubbles react with carbon dioxide that is still dissolved in the soda to cause more carbon dioxide to be freed and create even more bubbles, resulting in the eruption.

What mints react with Coke?

The surface of a Mentos mint appears to provide a highly efficient place for tiny bubbles to form (these places are known by the boffins as nucleation sites). When Mentos are dropped into Diet Coke, these bubbles form very rapidly.

What mixed with Coke will explode?

Mentos
It’s relatively easy to do because the materials are readily available: with nothing but a few Mentos and a bottle of Coke, you can trigger an immediate, explosive reaction, making this a very simple yet very fun (if slightly messy) experiment.

How many Mentos is too many?

Does Coke react with mint?

A Diet Coke and Mentos eruption (also known as a soda geyser) is a reaction between the carbonated beverage Diet Coke and Mentos mints that causes the beverage to be expelled from its container.

Does baking soda explode Coke?

The carbonate in the baking soda reacts with the hydrogen in Coca-Cola to create hydrogen carbonate. This then very quickly breaks down into water and carbon dioxide. It is this carbon dioxide that causes the explosion.

Is it OK to drink Coke and milk?

Pouring milk in Coke or vice versa results into a reaction of phosphoric acid in the Coke to milk’s proteins causing them to stick together, creating dense lumps that later settle at the bottom. In short, the milk curdles up. This, not unappetizing drink, met Felton’s approval, who wrote, “Milk coke is a real thing.

Is Coca-Cola and milk good?
