Are all metal carbonates and metal hydrogencarbonates basic in nature? Explain
Write balanced equations to satisfy each statement.
(a) Acid + Active metal → Salt + Hydrogen
(b) Acid + Base → Salt + Water
(c) Acid + Carbonate → Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide
or bicarbonate
(d) Acid + Sulphite or bisulphite → Salt + Water + Sulphur dioxide
(e) Acid + Sulphide → Salt + Hydrogen Sulphide
Example of :
acid +metal Bicarbonate -------> salt + water+ carbon dioxide
