When all the gas (CO2) evolves from it. The differnece is now you have a sugae water solution with carbonation.
Give it a shake and if it does not fizz and foam it is flat.
This occurs when the pressure is no longer holding it into sloution as when the can is sealed. Also it gas will evolve from solution faster as the temperature of the liquid increases.
The warmer the soda is the faster it goes flat.
In a opened large 2 litre bottle (recapped) the gas evolves into the space (head space) between the cap and liquid level. The gas will continue to come out of the soda until it causes a pressure in the head space that prevents more gas from evolving out. Each time we open the bottle we lose the gas from the head space. When we close it the same process is repeated until the soda finally has no gas. It is then flat.
Enjoy

When a soda is flat, it has lost its carbonation. You will know by the taste, which is blah......Soda usually goes flat if you leave the cap off or the can open and store in the fridge for too long. It can also get watered down if you use ice in it and the ice melts.

Soda is flat when most of the carbonation has been released from the drink. You can tell that it is flat when you open a bottle of soda and you don't hear the initial hiss. Or if it is in a glass you can sort of swish it around and if there are no bubbles afterward, it is flat.

its flat when it does not fizz anymore and the co2 is gone.
It does not have the same taste as fizzy drinks.
Hope this helps.

There is no fizz left. It taste like syrup.

When it's not bubbly, it's flat.
