Fizz
Fizz. Surely by now we all know diet soda and Mentos just don't mix well. Unless you
want to make an explosive rocket out of a
soda bottle under extreme pressure, or a
soda fountain.
It seems that when you add just a few mentos to a
bottle of diet coke, there is some sort of
chemical reaction causing the soda to foam
up and shoot out the bottle like a geyser. Close
the bottle with a cap after adding the
mentos and now you have a soda bottle under
extreme pressure. Throw the soda bottle into
the air and you now have a soda bottle
rocket after it makes contact with the
ground. The youtube video below shows us in
demonstration the foay pressure results when
the two are combines
Hmm
SO what would happen if lets say
someone was wearing a suit
covered with mentos and jumped
into a tank filed with diet coke? Watch!
People, please don't try this at home, and
if you do, ScienceIFL.com assumes no responsibility
if you hurt yourself. Be careful, don't be an
idiot and hurt or injure your self with a simple but
very effective experiment.
