Question

describe an activity to show the effect of an acid on carbonates and hydrogen carbonates.​

Answer 1

Answer:

All metal carbonates and hydrogen carbonates react with acids to give a corresponding salt, carbon dioxide, and water. Thus, the reaction can be summarized as: The activity describing the effect of acid on metal carbonates and metal bicarbonates is : ... This indicates that the evolved gas id Carbon-di-oxide.

Answer 2

Explanation:

carbonate and bicarbonate are basic in nature

where as acid is acidic

By neutralization reaction

acid+ base=salt + water

so it will neutralize and salt is formed

NaCO3+HCl =NaCl+ HCO3
