It's the decomposition of Carbonic Acid. Which is a losely formed acid that rapidly decomposes. It's bi-products are CO2 and H2O .... Carbon Dioxide and Water.... so after the CO2(fizz) is gone, you are left with just water.

Fizz mainly caused in carbonated soft drinks.Any filled carbonated soft drink bottle having pressure difference w.r.t. atmospheric pressure because of CO2 content in it.Soft drink has a tendency to retain more CO2 in cold conditions.Hence there will be more fizz as temp. rises than cold conditions.

carbonation is carbon dioxide in the soda. No, it is not bad for you, it's basically just air. The fizz is the carbon dioxide being released from the soda.

CO2, carbon dioxide. It is not a chemical reaction, but a liquid that turns to a gas state when it released to atomospheric pressure.

soft drinks are bottled with a pressure slightly greater than one atmosphere. When it is opened, and the pressure is balanced, some of the carbon in the drink is released.

It the carbon dioxide gas present in the drink

It is the carbon dioxide that causes the fizz

its the carbonated water that makes the fizz...if u add ice it fizzes more because it releases more bubbles...when a soda is flat its because its not as carbonated any more..

It's happens because of bubbles with carbon dioxide coming up.

the pressure exerted by the carbon dioxide releases into the air.
