Use a teaspoon to taste a very small amount of the soda to which you added sugar. What do you notice about the taste of the control soda compared with the sugar-added one? Is one more bubbly tasting than the other? If you like, compare the taste of your control soda and sugar-added soda with the salt- and the oil-added sodas.
Taste a very small amount of the test sodas! What do you notice about the taste of the control soda compared with the salt- and oil-added sodas?
How do these compare with the sugar-added soda? Extra: Try adding small amounts of other edible kitchen ingredients to your soda such as flour or baking soda. Observe the reactions! Build a Cooler.

How could they do that with a coke and mentos?
Wonderopolis Jan 5, Hannah Jan 3, I have actually wondered why pop is bubbly and you answered my "wonder". I am glad I read this wonder! This wonder answered my question and I even learned some new and interesting things, too! I really thought it was interesting that there is a such thing as a soda fountain, I never knew there was a such thing as that!!! Wonderopolis Jan 3, Jack Proctor MC Jan 3, This is such a phenomenal wonder!
I think that it is so cool that carbonation can make a whole drink fizzy and bubbly! Also, I had no idea that the sound that you hear when you open a can of soda is the sound of the carbon dioxide molecules rushing back into the air!
That was so cool! You added so many other facts including that carbonic acid gives bubbly drinks their delicious flavor! I was so surprised while watching the video, because it was so cool that they could do all of those amazing explosions with Diet Coke and Mentos! It almost seemed like fireworks!!!!! It was really cool that they could use 2-liter bottles of Diet Coke and Mentos in all of those fascinating explosions! Ninja Girl Jan 2, I love Diet Coke, and I've also done the experiment last year with the Mentos!
It was so cool! Wonderopolis Jan 2, Jack-MC Jan 1, Hi, my name is Jack from Mrs. Caplin's class. I always wondered if you guys were going to write about a wonder on Why Are Some Drinks Bubbly and sure enough you did!
I have been thinking about this for a long time and now I just learned why. How come when you put ice in the drink makes it more bubbly? I think this is one of the best wonders yet! Keep up with the fantastic wonders!!!!! Wonderopolis Jan 1, Rebecca Dec 31, This is a great topic and a great clue I have no idea what it will be about!!
I cant wait until next year's new wonders!! Happy New years!! Paige Dec 31, Dear Wonderopolis, Me and Rahul got it again! Yeah us! I think tomorrow's wonder will be why do we drop the big ball on New Year's Eve?
Happy New Year, wonderopolis! Vikkie Dec 31, I was close this time!!! I have no idea what tomorrow's wonder will be. Sencerely, Vikkie :. Wonderopolis Dec 31, Thanks for the article wonderopolis.

A can of fizzy drink has enough gas dissolved in it to blow up a small balloon.
When you open a bottle or can of fizzy drink, the pressure on the liquid suddenly gets smaller. The drink can trap much less carbon dioxide at this pressure, so the extra gas stops being dissolved and forms bubbles. To learn more we will need to run some experiments.
Pour some fizzy drink into a glass ask a grown-up first. Look at how the bubbles start where the liquid touches the glass — at the bottom and sides, but not in the middle of the drink. To make a new bubble, the molecules in the carbon dioxide and the drink move around and get organised to make a surface between them.
Less new surface needs to be made if the bubble starts against the edge of the glass. This uses less energy and means new bubbles usually start here. This is also why small bubbles tend to stick to the glass. More gas will join the small bubble, as it takes less energy to escape into a bubble to make it bigger than make a new one.
The carbonation originates from natural reactions deep within the Earth. Science is all around us. McMahon has few things for you to keep in mind as you continue to explore. Search for:.
