Alternator and/or battery, both could be weak/on the way out.

If you car will start and then die after X amount of time driving, chances are it's the alternator.

Get a mechanic to check it out.
 
When I turn the ignition it's silent. I noticed a lot of corrosion around the battery i cleaned the terminal with Pepsi (Yes i said Pepsi) and got a hot shot. It worked it acted like it wanted to cut off and i gave it gas. Well this morning it wouldn't start again and i called AAA they gave me a hot shot I left it running for a good 15 minutes and on my way to work it cut off. What could be the problem? Is it the battery,alternator,or starter?????
 
alternator.

you are using power when you are driving, and the alternator should be charging the battery as you drive, since it isnt, the power runs down and the car stops before you get to work

I'd change the battery too, its probably due as well
