Exploding Liquids

 The morning of the Science Fair at school, both Ronnie and Nathaniel woke up bright and early - very sick! They struggled all day and were disappointed not to be able to go to the Science Fair that evening.  They had worked so hard on their projects

Ronnie gathered his materials

He was going to add mentos candy to water, Pepsi and Diet Pepsi to see what kind of reaction it would make!

First the water.

Nothing

 Then the Pepsi

 "Awesome"

Then Diet Pepsi!

"That was cool" his siblings exclaimed as the geyser shot up in the air.  Ronnie was all grins!

He measured the liquid of both the Pepsi and Diet Pepsi after the geyser finished and found that both contained only bout 24 of the original 64 oz!

By the time we got home from the Science Fair that evening - Ronnie was feeling much better!
