That's the carbonation being released from its airtight space. It reacts with the air and that's why the more you open the fizzy drink the less fizz there is.

How many drinks should come from a 375 ml bottle of Jim Beam?

Well you are talking about a pint. It is actually only 12 ounces ( a true pint in 16). A text book drink will be one ounce per drink. Most people would say 1.5ounces per drink. So I would say 6-12 depending on how you like it

How does a soft drink become fizzy?

Answerit is carbonated AnswerThe carbon bubbles in the soda move around and fizz. The fizz that bubbles up when you crack open a can of soda is carbon dioxide gas. Soft drink manufacturers add this tingling froth by forcing carbon dioxide and water into your soda at high pressures-up to 1,200 pounds per square inch. An unopened soda can is virtually bubble-free because the pressure inside the can keeps the carbon dioxide dissolved in the liquid.When you crack open the can, you release the pressure and allow the gas bubbles to wiggle free from the liquid and rise to the surface. This requires energy because in order for the gas to break free from the liquid it has to overcome the force holding the liquid together.sorry its not 1200 psi actually about 87-100 psi and co2 can only be forced into water after it has been evacuated of all oxygen, pop shouldn't be frothy unless it has been shaken in a pressurised container, if pop feels frothy to drink it has been canned or bottled wrong, this is what is known as "fobbing" in the industry, if a pop has been made correctly is should really appear flat with the occasional bubbles.some pop is actually flat because it has been dosed with liquid nitrogen.


Why does bottled water have algae?

Bottled water is basically 100% pure water(H2O). The bottle is air-tight to prevent contamination, this means that it is only filled with nothing but water and not algae. The presence of algae growing in it means that it's contaminated and it is generally unsafe to drink.

What causers fizzy drinks to go flat?

Sparkling waters, wines and, of course, soda pops fizz because of the carbon dioxide dissolved, at high pressures and low temperatures, in every can and bottle. Carbonation adds a weak acid that gives your Coca-Cola a little tang while acting as a preservative, as well. When you pop the top, the pressure inside the can decreases, causing the CO2 to convert to gas and escape inbubbles. Let a can sit long enough before sipping and you will notice not only the lack of bubbly fizz but also the absence of the carbonic flavor. Beverage chemistry may be the largest single market for carbon dioxide, but it's not the only one. Solid CO2 refrigerates better than ice from H20, and this solid carbon dioxide, or dry ice, is used to freeze foods.


Can carbonated drinks get old?

Yes, only after a while though. Once the bottle or can is opened, the drink will lose its carbonation (fizz) within a few hours, even if you reclose the container. The drink itself may also spoil in just a few months, even unopened; diet drinks spoil faster than non-diet drinks.
