How do you do an experiment with Mentos?
In an experiment, you have two groups: an experimental group, and a control group. Open the soda bottle, set it down and write down what you observe about it. This will count as your control group. It’s what happens when you put nothing in the soda. Now take the Mentos in your tube loader.
How do you tell if a mento is carbon dioxide?
If you could look at the straw, pipe cleaner, and Mento with a super-strong microscope you would see that they have tiny dents, scratches, and bumps on them. The carbon dioxide molecules collect on these places and form bubbles which rise to the surface. Make a Mentos-and-Soda Fountain!
How do you put Mentos in a coke bottle?
Use the hot glue gun to glue 7 - 8 mentos together. This is optional, it just helps to add all of the mentos into the bottle at the same time. Place your bottle of coke in a large tub. This is optional, it just makes cleaning up more easy. Drop your mentos tower into the bottle. Stand back and enjoy.
