As the name implies, it is an acid.
It is an acid.
No, it forms an acid, H2O + CO2 --> H2CO3 (carbonic acid)
You mean,HCO3 - = bicarbonateH2CO3 = carbonic acid and the conjugate of the above base.
H2CO3 is an acid, specifically a weak acid known as carbonic acid. It is formed from the dissolution of carbon dioxide in water.
Carbonic acid gives an acid salt but hydrochloric acid does not
7UP is a weakly acidic carbonated drink due to the presence of carbonic acid.
When carbon dioxide (CO2) dissolves in water, it forms carbonic acid, not a base.
No. A buffer needs to have a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Additionally carbonic acid is unstable as it spontaneously decomposes into water and carbon dioxide.
is it possible to prepare a buffer consisting of only carbonic acid and sodium carbonate.
HCl is hydrochloric acid. Carbonic acid is H2CO3
Carbonic Acid is H2CO3
The salt formed when carbonic acid and aluminum hydroxide mix is aluminum carbonate. This reaction occurs when the acid-base reaction between carbonic acid and aluminum hydroxide takes place, resulting in the formation of aluminum carbonate salt.
