The Coke and Mentos Experiment

I wonder how will soda react with Mentos?How high will it go?

Question and Problem

I think that the soda will explode.

Probably it will go up to 2-3 cm.

Prediction

2 liter bottle of coke, Mentos, meter stick, paper clip, trash bin to support the coke

Materials

1.Collect the materials needed.

2.Go outside, find a safe place.

3.Place the soda in to the trash bin.

4.Put on your safety goggles.

5.Attach the meter stick to the trash bin.

6.Unscrew the bottle cap.

7.Attach the Mentos to the paper clip.

Procedure/Plan

The stream of the coke went up higher than 1 meter and it went up really quickly. The stream dissapeared quickly.

Results Of The Experiment

We found out that it will go higher than 1 meter. Also we found out, that if you put Mentos in soda it will explode, it depends on how many mentos you will put. The explosion took only a few seconds. My prediction was incorrect because I said that the stream will go only up to 2-3 centimeters but it didn’t.
