Answer:

It's Simple

Fizzy drinks contain phosphoric acid and carbon dioxide to provide the characteristic fizz and tang.

Explaination:

The three most common acids in soft drinks are citric, carbonic and phosphoric acids. Citric acid comes from citrus products and any soft drink with citrus flavoring will contain it. The chemical formula is H(3)C(6)H(5)O(7). Carbonic acid forms from dissolved carbon dioxide, which is present in almost all soft drinks. The chemical formula is simply a combination of H(2)CO(3). Soft-drink makers often add phosphoric acid to colas to produce a sharp flavor and to slow the growth of mold and bacteria. Most of the acidity in colas comes from phosphoric acid, whose chemical formula is H(3)PO(4).
