i have a project to prepare for that i need information. my topic is the effect of carbonated drinks on bone and i really need to know the disorders and the diseases caused by these drinks in the long term. kindly mention that and also give some pictures of the bones if u can. also i want experiments for the effects of bones by carbonated drinks.

Here's a start--\n\nThe bones mostly affected by sodas are your teeth.  The acids eat away enamel and then deteriorate your chompers.  \n\nYou need a real tooth.  Take photos of the tooth.  Then drop it in a glass of Coke.  Periodically take photos of how much the tooth "magically disappears."  Voila!  You've just shown how bad soda is for you.

Due the day after tomorrow, huh? : |  Oh well.\n\nYou might give this a shot, and it shouldn't be diffucult to find much info online about it too.\n\nSo often, it goes unnoticed, but is used everyday. The water you drink is already special -it has so many uses and is a really interesting and versitle compound, but a hot button issue in many places is whether or not your drinking water should be FLUORIDATED. Fluorine (make sure it's spelled 'u' before 'o' to advoid spelling point reductions) has caused quite a stir for some people because it is a poison. So why is this poison added to city drinking water by the water departments? It helps to fight tooth decay, and helps save millions in dental costs especially among the poor who sometimes can't afford dentistry service in the first place. But yet is still a posion.\n\nHere is where you come in. Do a little research on what fluorine is, how much is harmful, why is it added to water, and maybe how much is added to water. From there, you can write a paper showing how it is a part of daily life, and how chemistry in your life isn't just facts, but also a hot topic to many.\n\nWell, good luck with the research, and with the paper!

soda has carbonated water. orriginaly it was made with reguler water, someone accidently mixed in carbonated water instead of reguler water. this should help!

My son who was in 8th grade last year did one on how acids like those in lemon juice changed the structure of sugar. The compared them to an alkaline base such as milk. It was pretty neat because when he added the lemon juice to the sugar a chemical reaction occurred. He won. You can also do something if you are allowed to work with chemicals of how HCl hydrochloric acid can cook an egg or how it is neutralized by a base such as mylanta. Check with your teacher on that one. \n\nNot knowing what you are studying to this point I am sending you a link that has a lot of ideas. Good Luck.

Detailed information on soft drinks is available on the followinf page : \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_drinks

Martin, this was my original answer "No soft water is not harmful but soda is the worst thing for bones.  Did you drink soda as a kid?  In the next few years everyone will hear about the devastating effects of soda on developing bones." \nBUT THANKS TO YOU I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND OUT MORE.  INDEED SOFT WATER MAY ACTUALLY BE TOO PURE AND LEACH SOME VITAL ELEMENTS ESPECIALLY CALCIUM AND MAGNESIUM FROM THE BODY.  HERE IS AN INPORTANT WEBSITE: http://watershed.net/purified.htm, \nthanks MARTIN!

I think you're off...sorry. Caffeine accelerates metabolism of animals that have nervous system. It doesn't affect the cells, it affects the nervous system that controls the metabolic rate of, for example, mammals. It works pretty much teh same way as adrenaline.\nOn the other hand, euglena cysts don't have reduce metabolic rate: the dont have ANY metabolism going on. They're just a mass of molecules disposed in a perfect way that when triggered by the environmental condition, they start  working. Like a car motor. To do this, the euglena must in fact be very metabolically active in order to produce a lot of stuff and make a lot of changes to prepare for cysting. The stimuly are very specific: water and glucose. (and lack of water or glucose to form teh cyst). So i doubt that caffeine will affect, unless you put so much into the water that it becomes a poison, in which condition it may form a cyst (not by affecting the metabolic rate though)\nYou migh want to rethink your project and try to find out how much caffeine is pisonous for euglena and can it form cyst to protect itsefl from this condition?\nThe other thing about working with petri dishes: If it's a solid medium, nutrients will probably drop dow very fast, in which condition the euglena will form cysts. You won't be able to know how much the lack of nutrients made it unvulnerable to caffeine. Try to use a system that is more stable, like liquid medium, in which you can somehow trigger a cyst forming event. That way you will have more control.\nGood luck

If you ask me, and I'm still a student in high school, kids shouldn't be allowed to purchase soda at school, especially at a young age.  Soda can make kids jittery, over-anxious, and hyper because of all of the soda in it.  Along with the sugar high comes the crash, in which kids get really cranky and tired.  Soda is bad for your teeth, as well as your nutrition, and I can't see any benefit from soda.  Water and juice taste just as good, but are better for you.

Go to the source links I provide below.  They should be helpful and informative.

The heart is interesting.  You can also bring in some of the common disorderes of the heart (depending on how long the project is...)\nThe site below will help you off to a good start...:D

Any of the heavy metals, or benzene products would be excellent topics. If you attempt to present a case on a chemical that's too obscure you'll have a difficult time finding enough research/clinical trials to support your claim. Peruse the EPA website to get some other ideas.

DON"T DRINK SODA!\n\ndrink water\n\n carbonation and caffeine are actually dehydrating!\n\nn'cole is correct about getting tested for diabetes

Water is water.  The only possible risk is that the carbonation will fill you up more quickly and could cause you to drink less water.\n\nThat said, I did have a friend once who thought carbonation increased cellulite, but I have no idea where she got that from.

wow.. what a question.. i think drinking carbonated drinks make people burp.. because the carbon dioxide formed inside your stomach would eventually pile up and will need to be released..
