Fizzy drink and mentos experiment

Title -
Purpose: What do you want to learn/find out?
We had to find out which fizzy drink reacted the most with the same amount of mentos?
From this experiment I learned that if you leave the lid open the carbon dioxide will escape who will make a small rection.


Hypothesis: Try to predict the answer to the problem. Another term for hypothesis is ‘educated guess’. This is usually stated like ” If I…(do something) then…(this will occur)
Our group thought that the diet coke would react more than the other drinks.

Materials: List everything you will need to conduct your experiment.
For the experiment you will need different types of fizzy drinks, like diet coke,normal coke,L&P,fanta,pepsi and 7 up  and some mentos.


Experiment procedure: The fun part! Design a test or procedure to confirm or disprove your hypothesis. Write down each step so that someone else could do the same experiment.
1.Step 1:Buy different types of fizzy and mentos.
2.Step2:Then you tape the same amount of mentos and stick it onto the top of the fizzy drink lid.
3.Step 3:The last step is to pull the tape from the lid and watch the mentos go into the drink.



Analysis/Data: Record what happened during the experiment.
We took the fizzy drinks outside to test them.We tested all the fizzy drink with the same amount of mentos and the biggest rection was the 7up and normal coke. Our group didn't think that it would be the biggest reaction. The least rection was the fanta.


Conclusion:Review the data and check to see if your hypothesis was correct.
Before the experiment my group thought that the diet coke was gonna be the biggest reaction, but it wasn't, so our prediction was wrong. But we think that the fizzy and mentos experiment test wasn't a fair test, because the teachers poured out some fizzy from the drink and it wasn't even. The lid of the drinks were kept open for a long time, so maybe the drink lost some carbon dioxide.
