What else can I help you with?
Can carbon dioxide dissolve in water and form carbonic acid?
Yes, carbon dioxide can dissolve in water to form carbonic acid.
What combines water to form carbon acid?
carbon dioxide
How does carbon dioxide dissolve in water to form carbonic acid?
When carbon dioxide dissolves in water, it reacts with water molecules to form carbonic acid. This reaction occurs because carbon dioxide is slightly acidic and can combine with water to create carbonic acid, which is a weak acid.
What mixes with water to form a weak acid?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) mixes with water to make a weak carbonic acid
What made from CO2 and H2O?
Water and carbon dioxide form carbonic acid. Carbon dioxide dissolved in water can be considered as an acid - carbonic acid, H2CO3.
What is an agent of chemical weathering which combines with water to form a Carbonic acid?
Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere combines with water to form carbonic acid, it is a form of acid rain.
Can CO2 dissolve in water and form carbonic acid?
Yes, carbon dioxide (CO2) can dissolve in water to form carbonic acid.
What is made up of CO2 and H2O?
Water and carbon dioxide form carbonic acid. Carbon dioxide dissolved in water can be considered as an acid - carbonic acid, H2CO3.
Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form?
Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid H2O + CO2 --> H2CO3
What does H2O and CO2 produce?
Water and carbon dioxide form carbonic acid. Carbon dioxide dissolved in water can be considered as an acid - carbonic acid, H2CO3.
What does carbon dioxide absorption do?
Carbon dioxide absorbed in water form a carbonic acid.
What forms when carbon dioxide sulfur dioxide or nitric oxide combine with water in the air?
Separately Carbon dioxide dissolves in rail water to form a very mild solution of carbonic acid. This is a NATURAL process and NOT 'acid rain'. CO2(g) + H2O(l) = H2CO3(aq) However, Sulphur dioxide also dissolved in rainwater to form sulphurous acid. This is NOT a natural process, because the product has a lower pH making it more acidic. Hence 'acid rain'. SO2(g) + H2O(l) = H2SO3(aq) Similarly Nitric Oxide also dissolves in rainwater to form various acids of nitrogen. Again this has a lower pH than natural rainwater, making for acid rain. NO(g) + H2O(l) = H2NO2(aq) ( Nitrous acid). NB Water (rainwater) is a very powerful solvent and will dissolve most solutes. NNB The oxides of the NON-metals dissolve in water to form acids. Carbon, nitrogen and sulphur are elemental non-metals.
