Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to create diluted carbonic acid.
Yes, carbonic acid is soluble in water.
Yes, carbonic acid (H2CO3) can dissolve limestone and other minerals in rocks to create caves over long periods of time through a process called carbonation. Carbonic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in limestone to form calcium bicarbonate, which is more soluble and leads to cave formation.
HCl is hydrochloric acid. Carbonic acid is H2CO3
Carbonic Acid is H2CO3
Calcium carbonate does react with carbonic acid, forming soluble calcium bicarbonate. This reaction occurs in nature when rainwater reacts with limestone. The pH of the solution plays a role in determining the equilibrium of the reaction.
Yes, carbonic acid is soluble in water.
The dissolution of limestone by carbonic acid is a chemical process. Carbonic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in limestone to form calcium bicarbonate, which is soluble in water. This chemical reaction causes the limestone to dissolve.
No, carbonic acid does not dissolve every mineral. It most commonly dissolves minerals like calcite, dolomite, and limestone, which are composed of calcium carbonate. Other minerals may or may not be soluble in carbonic acid depending on their chemical composition and stability.

Carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than oxygen. Carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid in water, which increases its solubility. Oxygen is less soluble in water but is still able to dissolve to some extent.
No. Carbonic acid is H2CO3. Vinegar is acetic acid, CH3COOH.
Carbonic acid
"H2CO2 is known as "Carbonic acid". It is formed from a hydrogen ion (H+) and a bicarbonate ion (HCO3-)" This is wrong, H2CO2 is known as FORMIC acid H2CO3 is Carbonic Acid.
The idea of what is organic and inorganic compound of a carbon containing molecule is somewhat arbitrary. but among the best possible reason is becuase carbonic acid is soluble in water and insoluble in an inorganic acid while organic acid is the other way around (very few are soluble in water but all is soluble in organic solvent). Also organic acid are normally derived from a hydrocarbon compound, therefore it should assume that at least one carbon in the organic acid should be bonded with at least one hydrogen. but since the only carbon in carbonic acid is not bonded with any hydrogen (bonded instead with 3 oxygen), it can be said that carbonic acid is not derived from any hydrocarbon compound but from carbon dioxide instead.
