How will you prove that given salt is a carbonate salt?

Add an acid. The hydrogen ion will combine with carbonate to make H2CO3 which will decay into water and carbon dioxide causing rapid bubbling. Therefore, if you add an acid to a salt in solution and rapid bubbling occurs, then it is a carbonate salt.

What happens when an acid is released in H2O?

A large amount of heat is released when strong acids are mixed with water. Adding more acid releases more heat. If you add water to acid, you form an extremely concentrated solution of acid initially. So much heat is released that the solution may boil very violently, splashing concentrated acid out of the container! If you add acid to water, the solution that forms is very dilute and the small amount of heat released is not enough to vaporize and spatter it.
