We did an experiment with Mentos and Diet Coke. First of all we put the Diet Coke bottle in the snow. Next we dropped a package of Mentos in the Diet Coke. Poof! IT exploded. We tried doing it again but didn't work because all the carbon dioxide had left the first time. I thought it was interesting because it made ice coke in the snow. It was a physical reaction because even though the Coke exploded, it was still the same drink. The Mentos just made the Diet Coke explode so it is the catalyst.
I like the words you use like "catalyst" and "chemical reaction". Sounds like a fun way to make an explosion happen.
