it is dissolved in water
Well CO2 dissolves very well in water.
Even more than O2.
The reason is that CO2 is a polar covalent bonded molecule, i.e. it possess polarity.
The Oxygen of CO2 molecule forms intermolecular hydrogen bonding with Hydrogen of water molecules.
By the word polarity I mean to say that C is slightly positive than O2. ( enthalpies concerned) .
This difference creates a dipolic moment from positive to negative charge.
Not to confuse u much.
In other words, CO2 dissolves well in water especially at low temperature and high pressures.
