Homemade Geyser Tube – Sick Science #145
To find out why this happens click here http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab/experiments/homemade-geyser-tube
We’ve been performing the Mentos Soda Geyser here at Steve Spangler Science for years. We’ve launched so many geysers, in fact, that we created a tool to help streamline the process of creating the eruption. While the Geyser Tube is, hands-down, the best way to create a soda geyser that can be 30 feet tall, you might not be able to get your hands on one right away. So we’re going to teach you how to create a Homemade Geyser Tube with stuff you have at home.

wow im a teacher..and i will surely use these experiments to make kids interested!!
Cool
how does the toothpick act as a grenade-like rip for the geyser test?
Cool
the reaction taking place is actually not a chemical reaction. The surface area of mentos are very rough and has very tiny craters where carbondioxide can fit into, but not large enough for water molecules to go into.
I know steve spanglers kids! they go to my school
I know right! Maybe you can make a grenade out of soda and Mentos ;))
Nuecleation
Nucleation
King of random sent me here lololololololol
wish you were my science teacher
