We finally made it around to finishing our lessons about explosions. The question: What is an explosion? The answer can be complicated, but our best definition is still "something getting really big really fast. This time, we dropped a few Mentos into Diet Cola (to avoid the stickiness) to spot the reaction. Carbon dioxide bubbles are released quickly due to the rough texture of the Mentos, and the fast escape carries the liquid out with them. Our experiment was a test of nozzle size and shape, with all other variables remaining constant. | |
