Is sodium carbonate an acid base or salt?

Sodium carbonate is a salt composed of sodium cations and carbonate anions. It is neither an acid nor a base, but it can act as a base in certain reactions due to the presence of carbonate ions that can accept protons.


Which type of acid has calcium carbonate?

No acid contains calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is its own compound that is a base, not an acid. However, the erosion and deposition of calcium carbonate in nature is heavily influenced by carbonic acid.


What is the balanced equation for iron carbonate and sulphuric acid?

The balanced equation for iron carbonate (FeCO3) reacting with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is: FeCO3 + H2SO4 -> FeSO4 + H2O + CO2


Is FeBr3 a base or an acid?

Since Fe+ is more reactive than H+, I would guess that it is slightly acidic, but let me look that up for you... Yep. It will react with water to form a solution of a strong acid, hydrobromic acid, and a pretty weak base, iron(III) hydroxide (Which is actually weak because it forms FeO(OH).H2O, iron(III) oxide hydroxide hydrate.)


How can we tell if it was acid or the carbonate that initially was in excess?

To determine if acid or carbonate was in excess initially, you can titrate the reaction mixture with an appropriate base of known concentration. The point where the base completely neutralizes the acid will indicate the amount of acid present initially. Any excess base after this point would suggest that the initial excess was in the carbonate.


Is Na2CO3 a base acid or salt?

Na2CO3 is a salt, specifically sodium carbonate. It is formed from the reaction between a strong base (sodium hydroxide) and a weak acid (carbonic acid).


Is sodium carbonate a weak acid or a weak base?

Carbonate (CO32-) is a weak (double) base, it can accept two protons (in 2 steps).CO32- + H+ HCO3-HCO3- + H+ H2CO3
