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
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.
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.
NaOH sodium hydroxide and H2CO3 carbonic acid may be constituents of baking soda.
Hydrochloric acid is a aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride gas (HCl) and is a strong 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

NaOH + HCl ----> NaCl + H2O

There is no reaction. "Hydroxide acid" is water, which does not react with sodium hydroxide.
Carbonic acid does not combust.

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.
sodium hydroxide
C02 + H20 ------> H2C03 -------> HC03- + H+ Basicly, Carbon Dioxide + Water turns into Carbonic Acid and then Bicarbonate Ion and Hyrdrogen ion... This is respitation in the lungs...hope this is a better answer then the one you got before!
Hydrochloric Acid would be the stronger acid, as Sodium Hydroxide is an alkali.
