Diet vs. Regular Soda Density Lab

Diet vs. Regular Soda Density Lab 1. Introduction This lab is being done to see if there is a difference between the density (the quantity of something per unit measure, especially per unit length, area, or volume) of regular and diet soda is the same. We tested this and found the results to be the same for both the diet and the regular soda. 2. Materials and Methods a. Materials i. Coca-Cola® ii. Diet Coca-Cola® b. Equipment …

…In the diet soda high fructose corn syrup is substituted with aspartame, which could affect the density by one being lighter than the other. A future experiment could be measuring the density of both types at a different temperature. 5. Conclusion It was found that the density of regular soda is about .9991 and the density of diet soda is .9981, there fore the density of the regular soda is slightly more than the density of diet soda.
