I had a whole case of bottles that were flat - I found out that the caps still had a full quarter turn left before they were tight on the bottle. This particularly seems to be a problem with diet Mt. Dew in 24 oz. bottles. Try tightening the caps on every new bottle - and don't buy any bottles that don't feel tight and pressurized; if there is give when you squeeze it, then the carbonation has left the building.

Why is soda that goes flat a physical change?

Opening a soda can/bottle is a physical change. A good way to figure this out is to ask- can the change be reversed? Soda is formed when carbon dioxide (CO2) gas gets mixed with the flat soda to cause the bubbly fizz. When soda can is opened the pressure causes the CO2 to create an explosion of bubbles. Soon after the soda 'calms down' it eventually becomes flat. this flat soda can once again be 'injected with carbon dioxide to become bubbly.
