Yes, if the water is exposed to the atmosphere. If you were to check the pH of distilled water left exposed to the air, it would not be the 7 that your chemistry textbook tells you. Depending on the temperature of the water, length of exposure, etc., I have found that water's pH can be as low as 5. Why? carbon dioxide and even some nitrogen oxides slowly dissolve into the water from the air, forming carbonic acid and various nitrogen acids. So, while you won't get a free soda by leaving out a glass of water, you will have a very dilute solution of carbon dioxide..... However I do believe you are only half right.-Taisuke

In a solution of carbon dioxide in water a soft drink the carbon dioxide is the solute?
The carbon dioxide is a solute in a solution of carbon dioxide in water in a soft drink.
What are the two molecules plants use to make glucose?
Carbon dioxide and water
What products are formed when a hydrocarbon combust?
The correct answer is: Carbon dioxide and water.
Which gas that is found in ocean water does NOT come from the atmosphere?
You think probable to carbon dioxide.
Which is not a solution water sugar aluminum can or carbon dioxide?
carbon dioxide
Solution found in soda water?
Dissolved Carbon-Dioxide, Carbonic Acid, and Hydrogen-Hydroxide(water)..
What compounds are not found in water carbon protein carbon dioxide ammonia?
Ultrapure water doesn't contain impurities.Impure water may contain ammonia (as ammonium), carbon dioxide and carbon as some organic impurities; but not proteins.
In a solution of carbon dioxide in water a soft drink the carbon dioxide is the solute?
The carbon dioxide is a solute in a solution of carbon dioxide in water in a soft drink.
What flammable gas is found underground?
carbon dioxide and water vapor
What are the two molecules plants use to make glucose?
Carbon dioxide and water
What of these is a waste product of cells blood water oxygen or carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide and water
Name two waste products that have to be removed from the body?
The two main waste products of respiration are Water (H2O) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2).
Which gas is contained in the soda water?
Carbon dioxide (CO2). It is mainly produced by the decomposition of pressurized carbonic acid (H2CO3) into water and carbon dioxide.
The four things found in the blood?
Cells, water, carbon dioxide, waste
What is found in the air when methane is burnt?
Mostly carbon dioxide & water vapor.
Where does the carbon come from that plants use to produce carbon dioxide?
The carbon in plants come from the carbon found in carbon dioxide (CO2). As plants undergo photosynthesis they draw in water through their roots and carbon dioxide from the air through specialized structures called stomates. So the inorganic carbon in carbon dioxide becomes organic carbon making up the oils, carbohydrates and proteins found in plants.
Is carbon dioxide the solvent in cabonated water?
No, water is, carbon dioxide is the solute
