No. Carbonic acid can only exist while dissolved in water. Otherwise it decomposes into carbon dioxide and water.

What gas is produced by adding carbonic acid to salt?

Hydrochloric acid.


What will be the electrolysis products of carbonic acid?

Carbonic acid (H2CO3) will undergo electrolysis to produce hydrogen gas (H2) at the cathode and oxygen gas (O2) at the anode. The overall reaction can be represented as 2H2CO3 -> 2H2 + 2CO2 + O2.


Does hydrogen gas liberate when metals react with carbonic acid?

By definition metals above hydrogen should react with acids to produce hydrogen and a metal salt when mixed, but carbonic acid is a weak acid and it won't react as much like sulfuric acid.

What forms when water mixes with carbon dioxide gas in the air or soil?

A weak acid called Carbonic Acid form. Fun Fact: This is the same weak acid that is found in many soft drinks.


What substance contains carbonic acid?

Carbonic acid is a weak acid found in a solution of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) dissolved in water. It is formed when carbon dioxide dissolves in water, forming carbonic acid (H2CO3).


Acid formed by mixing water with carbon dioxide?

H2CO3, or carbonic acid, can be formed by dissolving carbon dioxide (CO2) in water (H2O). When carbon dioxide is dissolved in water, carbonic acid "exists in equilibrium" with the water and carbon dioxide; meaning that the carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms involved tend to move around and keep equal concentrations of gas/water mixture and carbonic acid.


What makes the gas in soda?

Its carbonic acid. Not good for tooth enamel.


How can one create carbonic acid?

Carbonic acid can be created by dissolving carbon dioxide gas in water. This reaction forms a weak acid that can be found in carbonated beverages like soda.


When H2CO3 is formed does it cause a gas?

Yes. It is formed by reacting an aqueous acid with a carbonate ion in aqueous solution. This yields a salt and H2CO3 (carbonic acid). Carbonic acid is very unstable. It decomposes into water and CO2. Thus product of any acid and carbonate ion yields water, a salt, and carbon dioxide.


What are the uses of carbonic solution?

Carbonic acid solution is considered a respiratory acid because it is exhaled from the lungs as a gas. This solution forms carbonate salts and bicarbonate salts.
