Diet Coke reacts with mentos because the chemicals in the mentos and cola react to cause the soda's carbon dioxide to quickly turn into a gas an escape from solution. Although the exact nature of the reaction is unknown, it seems to relate to things such as the coating on the mentos and the artificial sweetener in the cola. peanuts
In mentos there is sodium and diet coke has carbon dioxide and they are both from the periodic tables and they don't work together.
