Hang on to your soda bottles so you can test out these 7 experiments

Perhaps one of your favorite things to do with a soda bottle is to drink the contents inside. That is completely understandable, but these 7 experiments may test that list.
We have found 7 of the most interesting experiments with soda bottles that you can try at home.
1. Floating ping-pong ball (h/t Science Sunday)

Levitation is something that always fascinates the masses. Making something levitate or float in the air is all about science and air pressure. You can apply these same principles when using a soda bottle. Watch the video and see how the experimenter makes this ping pong ball float.
2. Soda dispenser experiment (h/t American Hacker)
This experiment uses an elaborate design to make a fully functional drink dispenser. This is a cool experiment that can get a little messy, so make sure you have something to clean up with after the experiment is completed.
3. Glow in the dark tornado tube experiment (h/t The King of Random)
You may have tried a tornado in a bottle which creates a vortex in the middle of the liquid inside of the bottle. The tornado tube takes that experiment to the next level. You will need two 2-liter bottles for this experiment. Watch the video and see how to create your own tornado tube. The fact that it glows in the dark is an added benefit.
4. Invisible soda experiment (h/t TheBox)
What happens when you mix milk and soda together? It creates a disgusting edible mixture, but something very interesting happens as well. Take a look and see (if you can) what happens when this very acid mixture is invaded by milk.
5. Soda dispenser experiment (h/t Sick Science!)
There are several experiments that make soda dispensers by flipping the bottle of soda upside down, but this experiment attempts to make a soda dispenser with the bottle standing up the way it was designed. This is a cool experiment that can get a little messy, so make sure you have something to clean up with after the experiment is completed.
6. Bottle rocket experiment (h/t The Sci-Guys)
Bottle rockets are such a cool and fun way to learn about science. In this video, the two experimenters work together to create a bottle rocket from a two-liter bottle and then launch the rocket. After you watch the experiment, don’t stop there. They also explain how and why the water bottle rocket they created works. You can learn a lot from this simple experiment and have fun at the same time.
7. Aircraft car with balloon and soda bottle (h/t Semi High Production)
This is a fun experiment to see how air can be used to move a car made from a soda bottle. With a bottle, balloon, and a little bit of ingenuity you can make your homemade car travel by air from the balloon. Watch the video to see how it all comes together.
