Reply to comment by dantodd in LPT never make an argument based on logic with someone who thinks squeezing the air out of a 2liter bottle keeps the drink from going flat. by dantodd

>The CO2 doesn't go "into the air" it goes "out of the soda"

If there is no where for it to go to, then it can't go "out of the soda". Are you suggesting it goes into the plastic bottle? But then how do unopened bottle of soda stay fizzy?

>If you placed that in an open vacuum with no air at all it would go flat even faster because of the pressure differentiall.

How the hell is there an open vacuum if they have squeezed out the air?

>Squeezing a bottle didn't reduce its volume

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean but squeezing a bottle reduces the volume. Just try squeezing a bottle to remove the air and tell me how the volume hasn't reduced.

Just post a picture of a bottle you have squeezed, removing the air that has the same volume.

I'm afraid I'll have to leave it to you too perform your own experiences or Google searches for some explanation that makes more sense to you.

I mean by definition, or experiment if you squeeze the air out of a plastic bottle the volume would reduce. I would post a picture, but seriously pretty much every person who has every interacted with a plastic bottle would know that squeezing it would reduce the volume.

Are you a real person or are you some kind Chat GPT AI that has never actually touched a plastic bottle?

Edit: I'm tempted to post a LPT about how you shouldn't bother engaging with people who don't think the volume in a plastic bottle reduces if you squeeze the air out of it.

Edit 2: Just do the experiment, empty two bottle half way, squeeze the air out of one so there is pretty much no air/space left. Leave for a few days then see if there is any difference in fizziness.

Edit 3: Evidence the the volume reduces when you squeeze the air out https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-3d07ddd8eb1f5d84fb83848a9bdc144f.webp
