Dissolved carbon dioxide in water (carbonic acid) is weak acid.
Carbon dioxide absorbed in water form a carbonic acid.
Carbon dioxide (CO2). It is mainly produced by the decomposition of pressurized carbonic acid (H2CO3) into water and carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) mixes with water to make a weak carbonic acid
carbon dioxide
It is the propellant used to force water out of the extinguisher.
It doesn't. The soda solution mixes with the acid and the chemical reaction FORMS carbon dioxide gas, which pressurizes the extinguisher.
Carbon dioxide create the carbonic acid - H2CO3.
No, lactic acid fermentation does not produce carbon dioxide.
Dissolved carbon dioxide in water (carbonic acid) is weak acid.
Carbon dioxide is called an acid anhydride because it can react with water to form an acid. When carbon dioxide dissolves in water, it forms carbonic acid. The term "anhydride" refers to a compound formed when a water molecule is removed from an acid.
No, CO2, or carbon dioxide, is not an acid.
Carbon dioxide
Smoke is usually carbon dioxide, which is a gas. Gases can not be acids, but carbon dioxide acts like an acid.
A soda-acid extinguisher expells water (actually a dilute sodium sulfate solution formed by the reaction of the soda and the acid). Therefore, it's used on the same types of fires as normal water extinguishers; wood, paper, textiles and so on. It must NOT be used on burning liquids (which would be splashed around, sperading the fire) or on live electrical equipment (becuse of the risk of electrocution).
When an acid reacts with a carbonate, the three products formed are carbon dioxide, water, and a salt.
Carbon dioxide gas is given off when an acid reacts with carbonates. This reaction forms carbonic acid, which then decomposes to release carbon dioxide gas.
