Fizzy drinks are basic. (State whether true or false).
A. True
B. False

Hint: Fizzy drinks, also known as soft drinks or carbonated beverages, are usually composed of the carbonated water, a sweetener, and an artificial or a natural flavouring agent.

Complete answer:
Fizzy drinks are actually the drinks which comprise the small bubbles of carbon dioxide gas. For example, when you crack open the can of soda, the fizz that bubbles up is basically the carbon dioxide gas (i.e. \[C{O_2}\]). The manufacturers of soft drink add such a kind of tingling froth by actually forcing the carbon dioxide as well as water into the soda at a high pressure—up to 1,200 pounds psi (per square inch).
Since, the fizzy drinks contain carbon dioxide to make aerated drinks so this \[C{O_2}\] gets dissolved and combined with water in order to form carbonic acid. As a result, all fizzy drinks are acidic in nature.
\[{H_2}O + C{O_2} \to {H_2}C{O_3}\]
Owing to its acidic nature, fizzy drinks cause erosions to the dental enamel, therefore dissolving the enamel potentially on our teeth.
Hence, Fizzy drinks are not basic. The given statement is false.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option B.

Note:
It has been investigated that drinking of the fizzy drinks or carbonated beverages in large amounts especially during the development of adolescents may lead to the reduction of the accumulation of bone minerals and thereby, increasing the risk of future fractures. The main reason behind it may be the presence of high content of phosphoric acid in the soft drinks which can link soft drinks and the fracture.
