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 does hydrochloric acid cause to be released?
What does hydrochloric acid cause to be released? When HCl reacts with active metals H2 gas is released Zn + 2 HCl + ZnCl2 + H2 (Gas) When HCL reacts with a carbonate CO2 is realeased CaCO3 + 2 HCl + CaCl2 + H2CO3 H2CO3 releases carbon dioxide H2CO3 = H2O + CO2(Gas)
When HCO3- acts as a bronsted base what is formed?
Hco3- => h2co3
What acid is formed from water mixing with carbon dioxide?
Carbonic Acid (H2CO3)
What happen for the reaction between carbonic acid and water?
Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is formed.
Why does baking soda and acid create CO2?
Baking soda (NaHCO3), acts like a base by accepting a hydrogen ion from an acid as illustrated below:BASE____ACID__________SALTNaHCO3 + HCl ==> H2CO3 + NaClIn this example, the carbonic acid formed (H2CO3) undergoes rapid decomposition to water and gaseous carbon dioxide, and so the solution bubbles as CO2 gas is released.

Why are gas bubbles observed when the sodium bicarbonate is added?
with the reaction of acetic acid + sodium bicarbonate---->sodium acetate + h2co3 the product h2co3 is highly unstable which is eager to break down into its components of H2O and Co2 which is why gas bubbles are observed (its the CO2 that's formed in the process)
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.
When coal is burned a gas is given off that is weakly soluble in water what is the gas and what is formed when it dissolves in water?
The gas is carbon dioxide, and it is in fact very weakly soluble in water. Under high pressures, however, it is soluble. The substance formed is carbonic acid, H2CO3.
When HCO3- acts as a bronsted base what is formed?
Hco3- => h2co3
An acidic solution reacts with magnesium carbonate to produce a gas what is the formula for the gas?
Let's say the acid is HCl MgCO3 + 2 HCl -> Mg Cl2 + H2CO3 H2CO3 is carbonated water (pop) H2CO3 decomposes into H2O and CO2
Why does it fizz when a gas is produced?
The cause is the movement of gas bubbles formed in the liquid.

What gas is produced if you blow carbon dioxide in boiling water?
The gas that is produced if you blow carbon dioxide in boiling water is carbonic gas (H2CO3).
What gas is the main cause of the ozone hole and what is the source of this gas?
Ozone hole is caused by CFC's. They are formed by air conditioners.
