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.
To prove that a salt is a carbonate of a metal, you can add an acid to the salt. If carbon dioxide gas is produced, it indicates the presence of a carbonate. This can be further confirmed by testing the gas with limewater; if it turns milky, it confirms the presence of carbon dioxide, which suggests the salt is a carbonate of a metal.
A Salt. Chemical salts are of the form 'metal cation' and Acidic Anion'. The general formula is given as M^(n+)A^(m-). In calcium carbonate the metal cation is calcium (Ca^(2+)) and the Acidic anion is CO3^(2-).
Carbon dioxide gas is given off when a carbonate reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid. This reaction results in the formation of a salt, water, and carbon dioxide gas.
There is technically no salt equivalent of sodium carbonate. Sodium carbonate, or soda ash, is a sodium salt of carbonic acid. It is often extracted from plant ashes.
You get carbon dioxide, water, and a salt.

Potassium carbonate (K 2 CO 3 ) is commonly known as potash. It is a white mineral salt used
ignited matchstick
copper(II) carbonate or cupric carbonate
its obvious..when an acid is reacting with a carbonate 3 things are made: Metal Salt Water Carbon Dioxide so the gas that would be given off is carbon dioxide
No, ammonium ion will not form an insoluble salt with carbonate. Ammonium carbonate is a soluble salt that dissociates completely in water to form ammonium and carbonate ions.

Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is a salt.
