What is Learnt
|
Compressed carbon-di-oxide in bottled liquid forces itself out of liquids on opening in the form of bubbles as the bubbles are just waiting to escape.
Dropping mint candies speeds up the process, because mint candies are covered with tiny dimples that increase the surface area and help make more and more huge bubbles.
Mint could prove to be acidic to aggravate such reactions.

Lo!! There is a fantastic fountain of Coca Cola gushing out far and wide. Mint is acidic and aids the reaction to form the fountain.
