Chemical Reaction

The classic science experiment baking soda and vinegar has always been one of the easiest experiments, I wondered if there was something else that could cause a reaction but not in the same way.

My mom suggested that I try red bull and milk! Red bull and milk?

I did a lot of research and ended up with a chemical reaction that did not explode like baking soda and vinegar.

 

My hypothesis is not only will the milk react to the chemicals in the red bull but it will probably curdle and separate.

The first question I had was what chemicals is it reacting too?

My method was very simple, the first thing I did was look at all the ingredients in the red bull to see what chemicals were in there and which one was it was reacting to. On the front of the can it says “with taurine” what is taurine ? Taurine is a natural crystalline substance with

C2, H7, NO3, S. Taurine can be found in the large intestines and counts for approximately 0.1 % of our body weight. The next ingredient is Niacinmide which is a chemical (Also vitamin B4) it synthesizes and metabolizes proteins, carbohydrates, and fats .   other  ingredients are calcium pantothenate (Vitamin B5) , pyradoxin (Vitamin B6) ,Sucrose which is just “table” sugar,gluclose is also known as corn sugar.The next big ingredient is caffeine ,caffeine is a white crystalline with C8,H10,N4,O . (if you noticed it is similar to taurine) now that we know what is in the red bull what is in the milk ? The protein in the milk called casein which is a milk fat has a acid called phosphorus. (This is a  element on the periodic table) phosphorus is found in the nervous tissue , bones and cell protoplasm . Phosphorus is a highly reactive that is why it is not a free element on earth.  

From what I have researched is that two of the chemicals, taurine and niacinmide in the red bull and phosphorus in the milk is what had the reaction.  And my result was......
