Abstract When Mentos are added to Diet Coke, a chemical reaction occurs and causes the liquid to rise up in a geyser. My project will examine the effect temperature will have on the height of the geyser. I believe the cooler the temperature of the Diet Coke, the lower the height of the geyser will be. According to The Particle Theory, the hotter the temperature of the Diet Coke, the higher the height of the geyser should be.
