Question

Which Gas is used in Soda Water?
1. Carbon Monoxide
2. Carbon dioxide
3. Oxygen
4. Marsh gas

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : Carbon dioxide

The correct answer is Carbon dioxide.

• The main ingredient in sweetened soft drinks is water; they are about 90 per cent carbonated water.
• Carbonated water is water that has been infused with carbon dioxide gas under pressure.
  • This produces a bubbly drink that's also known as sparkling water, club soda, soda water, seltzer water, and fizzy water.
  • Apart from seltzer water, carbonated waters usually have salt added to improve their taste.
• Carbonated beverage consumption has been linked with diabetes, hypertension, and kidney stones, all risk factors for chronic kidney disease.
