Why does a carbonated soft drink lose carbonation when the container is left open?


A.Water evaporates, which favors the formation of H2CO3.

B.Pressure decreases, which favors the formation of H2CO3.

C.The open container warms up, which causes more gas to escape.

D.CO2is removed, which favors the formation of H2CO3.

<u>Answer:</u>

The bubbles in a carbonated soft drink show up when carbonic acid (H2CO3) decomposes to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). In a closed system, this equilibrium exists as:

                                         H2CO3 ⇌ CO2+ H2O


B is the correct answer.

Carbonated drinks are sealed under high pressure so when a container is left open, pressure decreases which favors the formation of carbonic acid (H2CO3). It is weak acid which decomposes releasing CO2 in the form of bubbles.

Which sphere of Earth is associated with plate tectonics?
Marrrta [24]

When looking at this question, we can easily start by eliminating certain answers. In the selections you've provided, you've shown atmosphere. We can easily eliminate letter A, as that makes absolutely no sense. Moving on, you also eliminate letter B, as that deals with ecosystems and whatnot. And finally, you can eliminate hydrosphere, letter C - as that's not the same. That deals with water, like oceans or rivers.

That leaves you with D) Lithosphere for your answer. The Lithosphere is the rigid part of the earth, the outermost layer, I would say. The crust / mantle. That's why it would be letter D - plate tectonics seem to have relations with the Lithosphere. The lithosphere is affected.
