It’s an e-mail that probably showed up in your inbox… Create an Exploding Drink! The prank is based on the widely known phenomenon of dropping MENTOS® chewy mints into soda to create an erupting geyser. Instead of just dropping the Mentos into soda, the pranksters suggest freezing a Mento in the middle of an ice cube. Serve your friend a refreshing soda drink and garnish with the tainted ice cubes. When the ice cube melts, the Mento is exposed and the soda erupts everywhere. Great idea, right? Readers of the Boing Boing blog suggest that it’s a hoax… but no one out of the 600 plus people who posted a comment bothered to try it. We turned Steve Spangler loose to find out if it really works. http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/experiment/mentos-mix-an-exploding-drink-hoax
Steve Spangler uses Gak to talk about Glaciers. Follow Steve and his team as they head to Alaska at www.ScienceAtSea.com Is it a solid? Is it a liquid? Just what is this slimy, stringy, rubbery stuff? This variation on slime will probably remind you of a similar substance found in many toy stores. This is the most popular version of “slime” among teachers because it’s so easy to make and serves as a great visual tool for introducing students to the properties of polymers.
It’s the ultimate prank using the simplest of props… a plastic soda bottle filled with water. Even though the words, “DO NOT OPEN” are printed on the bottle, people just can’t resist the temptation. Watch out, the fun is just beginning.

But your chances of being struck in Colorado are higher simply due to the state being ranked number 11 for lightning deaths in the United States. Here in Colorado, lightning is the number one life threatening weather hazard.
Read the full experiment at http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/experiment/instant-freeze-soda-ice It might have happened to you… You put a bottle of soda in the freezer for a few minutes just to get it ice cold. When you take the soda out of the freezer, it’s still a liquid (nothing unusual has happened just yet). However, the second you twist off the cap, the soda instantly freezes! The process is amazing to watch… but it’s a real bummer if you were thirsty (because it’s tough to suck ice out of the bottle). This is a great illustration of how carbon dioxide can lower the freezing point of water. Get some ice, some salt and some plastic bottles of soda water and try this very cool science demo.

Clock reactions like this never fail to capture the students attention, and the Iodine Clock Reaction is one of the most startling chemical demonstrations you’ll ever see. How did that happen? is almost always the reaction, and when students ask How?, theyre ready to learn.
