pop is fizzy because co2 prolongs the life of pop,

before pop is made, treated water it is evacuated of all oxygen particles then blasted with co2 at around 6bar (87psi). this water is then mixed with syrup (like a cordial) at about 2.5 parts of water to 1 part of syrup (depends on type of pop eg. diet, energy, cola etc....) it is the sent through a filler into a can. it is actually more complicated then that but that's it in a quick lesson

also not all pop is fizzy it can be filled using nitrogen these are typically fruit drinks...
