There are to possible reactions depending on the relative amounts of each substance. If there is an abundance of sodium hydroxide the balanced equation will be:
2NaOH + H2CO3 --> 2H2O + Na2CO3
If there is more carbonic acid:
NaOH + H2CO3 --> H2O + NaHCO3

Why sodium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide dissolves in water and reacts with the water to form carbonic acid, and therefore, you get an acid-base neutralization reaction with sodium hydroxide.
Why sodium hydroxide solution contains sodium carbonate?
Water reacts with carbon dioxide in the air to form small amounts of carbonic acid. In a sodium hydroxide solution, this reacts again to form sodium carbonate.
What acid and base will you expect to find a constituent of baking soda?
NaOH sodium hydroxide and H2CO3 carbonic acid may be constituents of baking soda.
Can you please give the definition of the follwing hydrochloric acid citric acid nitric acid carbonic acid boric acid sulfuric acid potassium hydroxide sodium hydroxide?
Hydrochloric acid is a aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride gas (HCl) and is a strong acid.
Sodium Bicarbonate Acetic Acid?
sodium bicarbonate reacts with acetic acid to form sodium acetate and carbonic acid. carbonic acid will further dissociate to form water and carbon dioxide

How do you balance hydrochloric acid and Sodium Hydroxide?
NaOH + HCl ----> NaCl + H2O

How do you balance combustion of carbonic acid Please Help?
Carbonic acid does not combust.
What salt is made when sodium hydroxide reacts with hydroxide acid?
There is no reaction. "Hydroxide acid" is water, which does not react with sodium hydroxide.
Sodium Bicarbonate Acetic Acid?
sodium bicarbonate reacts with acetic acid to form sodium acetate and carbonic acid. carbonic acid will further dissociate to form water and carbon dioxide
What has the highest pH value acetic acid or sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate or sulphuric acid?
sodium hydroxide
Why does sodium hydroxide and phenolphthalein mixture turn clear when carbon dioxide is added?
Carbon dioxide dissolves in the aqueous solution to produce carbonic acid. The carbonic acid dissociates to produce the carbonate ion and two protons. The protons reacts with the hydroxide provided by the already dissociated sodium hydroxide to produce water. The sodium carbonate is fairly soluble and stays in solution. Since the hydroxide ion is depleted, the phenolphthalein reverts from pink to clear as it does in solutions with a pH less than 8.3.
What is the stronger acid hydrochloric or sodium hydroxide?
Hydrochloric Acid would be the stronger acid, as Sodium Hydroxide is an alkali.
What is sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid the same as?
Sodium hydroxide is a base and hydrochloric acid is an acid. Both are not same.
