Why champagne has stable “bubble chains” and other carbonated drinks do not Surfactants give champagne its signature stable rising column of bubbles.

“A bubble, when it’s rising in a liquid, has as a wake — has a trail of motion behind it …” Zenit said. “So basically the fluid inside the wake is rotating. ...

In carbonated drinks, the wake from rising bubbles can disturb other bubbles. But when the molecules that give fizzy drinks their flavour coat the bubbles, they can form stable columns as they float.

The pressure release results in a hissing sound and you see bubbles rising in the liquid as the H₂CO₃ converts back to CO₂ and that gas escapes to the surface.

Those bubbles rising to the surface are gas molecules making their way out. Remember, the gas was pu into the water under pressure. So when you open your soda, the gas starts to escape.

Ocean and so-called greenhouse gas levels are rising faster than they have for thousands of years, according to two reports published Thursday. IE 11 is not supported.

“Bubbles also stimulate our noses because each time a bubble finishes rising and bursts on the surface of the drink, its explosion triggers the projection of micro-aerosols into the air, which ...

More bubbles rising and popping means more gas is escaping from the solution. Fewer bubbles rising and popping means more gas is remaining in the solution. Step 5 Have students warm and cool 2 cups of ...
