Why a carbon dioxide is called an acid anhydride?
Carbon dioxide is so called because when it mixed with water it give carbonic acid that is why it known as acid anhydride.
Why is carbonic acid preferred to other acids in fizzy drinks?
- the carbonic acid (dissolved carbon dioxide in water) is not toxic - the carbonic acid (dissolved carbon dioxide in water) is not so corrosive - the carbonic acid (dissolved carbon dioxide in water) has a pleasant taste - the carbonic acid (dissolved carbon dioxide in water) is cheaper - the carbonic acid (dissolved carbon dioxide in water) is very simple to prepare and very accessible
When carbon dioxide dissolves in water what weak acid is prodced?
Carbonic acid is produced when carbon dioxide dissolves in water.
Is smoke an acid?
Smoke is usually carbon dioxide, which is a gas. Gases can not be acids, but carbon dioxide acts like an acid.
Is CO2 a acid?
