We know that carbonic acid gas reacts with water to create "carbonic acid." However, what we actually call as the acid isn't the weak acid H2CO3; H2CO3 doesn't even exist in solution. What really we call as the acid is just CO2 dissolved in water which is in equilibrium with small amounts of H + and HCO3-. HCO3 ^ - is that the intermediate substance between CO2 and CO3 ^ 2-. By adding OH- to HCO3 ^ - we produce CO3 ^ 2-. Adding H + to HCO3 produces CO2.

CO2 (aq) + H2O (l) <==> H + + HCO3 ^ - acid midrange pH values

HCO3 ^ - + OH- <==> CO3 ^ 2- + H2O (l) formation of carbonate ion basic

HCO3 ^ - + H + <==> CO2 (g) + H2O (l) formation of carbonic acid acidic gas

Acid: H2CO3

Conjugate Base: HCO3-

Base: H2O

Conjugate Acid: H3O +

Carbon dioxide is produced by all animals, plants, fungi, and microorganisms in the process of respiration and is used by plants in the process of photosynthesis. Therefore, carbon dioxide is an important component of the carbon cycle. Carbon dioxide is also produced from the byproduct of burning fossil fuels. Inorganic carbon dioxide is released from volcanoes and other geothermal processes such as hot springs.

under a microscope, cancer cells may look very different from normal cells. they often have different sizes and some may be larger than normal while others are smaller. cancer cells are often abnormally shaped and the control centre of the cell (the nucleus) may have an abnormal appearance.
