When a beverage is “carbonated” what is happening? How does it affect the acidity?

In addition, carbonated beverages may serve as an acid load and thus may raise gastric acid volume, leading to increased likelihood of gastro‐oesophageal reflux. Two studies have demonstrated that carbonated beverages can reduce the oesophageal pH < 4 and potentially cause GERD‐related symptoms.

Explanation:

2h2o2--> 2h2o + o2

this reaction is of the spontaneous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen.

add 2 molecules of hydrogen peroxide and 2 molecules of water. since oxygen is naturally diatomic, the total number of atoms of each element is now the same on both sides of the equation so it is balanced.

this may not be entirely correct but let me know.
