Taking carbonate (CO3^2-) as 60 g/mole, the equivalent mass of metal would be 60/2 = 30 since carbonate is 2- anion
sodium carbonate
When copper carbonate reacts with potassium, it forms copper metal and potassium carbonate. This reaction is a redox reaction where copper is reduced and potassium is oxidized.
MeCO3 where Me is a metal.
Sodium Carbonate Potassium carbonate Lithium carbonate Magnesium carbonate
no
Because when you use a certain metal say magnesium oxide with hydrochloric acid you will get: magnesium chloride magnesium carbonate + hydrochloric acid = salt + water + carbon dioxide.
Magnesium carbonate is a metal carbonate that does not decompose easily at room temperature or below.
No, it is not. Calcium is a metal but calcium carbonate is not.
Calcium is a metal
The word equation for the reaction between acid and metal carbonate is acid + metal carbonate → salt + water + carbon dioxide.
metal carbonate + acid = metal salt + carbon dioxide + water e.g. calcium carbonate + hydrochloric acid = calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide CaCO3 + 2HCl = CaCl2 + H2O +CO2
Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) is a metal carbonate that is soluble in water. It forms a basic solution upon dissolving in water.
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.
When a metal carbonate reacts with an acid, the products are a salt, carbon dioxide gas, and water. The salt formed will depend on the specific metal in the carbonate and the acid used in the reaction.
