Soda Surprise: The Frosty Explosion
For a refresher on the science behind this photo, let’s take a trip back to our elementary school days. As water freezes, the H2O molecules move further apart, causing it to expand. Since soda is mostly water, this expansion increases pressure within the can, resulting in an unfortunate soda explosion.
This phenomenon usually happens when a soda can is left in the freezer, but imagine how cold it must have been outside for it to occur inside someone’s car!
