Carbonated soft drinks are acidic, as they mostly contain small amounts of carbonic acid and even maybe phosphoric acid.

∙ 12y agoSoft drinks are acidic in nature due to the presence of carbonic acid, phosphoric acid, citric acid, and other acidic components used to give them their characteristic flavor.
To test if a soft drink is acidic, basic, or neutral, you can use pH strips or a pH meter. Dip a pH strip into the soft drink and compare the color change to the provided chart to determine the pH level. A pH below 7 indicates acidity, while a pH above 7 indicates alkalinity. A pH of 7 is neutral.
Milk is not acidic. Saliva, soft drink, and blood are acidic.
A soft drink is typically more acidic than a tomato due to the presence of carbonic acid in carbonated drinks. Tomatoes are naturally acidic because of citric and malic acids, but the acidity levels in soft drinks can be higher.
Acidic. Definitely acidic. Soft drinks have carbonic acid dissolved in them most of the time. If you drank something basic, your stomach acid would be partially neutralized, and therefore less effective for a period of time. Also, bases dissolve fats, or lipids, the best, and your body cell membranes are made of lipids. Something that can tear your cells open like a wet paper bag would not be a safe thing to drink.
A carbonated soft drink is acidic due to the presence of carbonic acid formed from carbonation. When placed on red litmus paper, the litmus paper will turn red indicating acidity.

Yes, it has acid in it.
Citric acid is found in soft drinks.

Seven up is an acidic soft drink (pH=approx. 4).

Soft drinks contain carbon dioxide (CO2) which is acidic if it mixes with water. Also, gas are more hardly to dissolve in water when the temperate increase. When we boiled the soft drink, the amount of carbon dioxide inside decreased. Thus the pH value of soft drink has increase after boiling.
