Then, how do you make a volcano with baking soda?
Instructions:

- Use a spoon to mix the baking soda slurry until it is all a liquid.
- Eruption time! … Pour the baking soda slurry into the soda bottle quickly and step back!
Beside above, what happens when you mix vinegar and baking soda? When baking soda is mixed with vinegar, something new is formed. The mixture quickly foams up with carbon dioxide gas. If enough vinegar is used, all of the baking soda can be made to react and disappear into the vinegar solution. Sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid reacts to carbon dioxide, water and sodium acetate.
Considering this, why do Mentos explode in Coke?
In the Diet Coke bottle the Mentos candy provides a rough surface that allows the bonds between the carbon dioxide gas and water to break more easily, helping to create carbon dioxide bubbles. Because Mentos candies are rather dense, they sink rapidly through the liquid, causing a fast, large eruption.
Does Mentos gum work with Coke?
Unlike Pop Rocks and soda — which don't actually make your head explode if consumed together — combining Mentos with Diet Coke really does cause a chemical reaction.
