Answer:
The CO2 gas then diffuses into the liquid below. When CO2 gas diffuses into water, the result is carbonic acid (H2CO3) —the following chemical reaction takes place: CO2 (aq) + H2O —> H2CO3. Carbonic acid dissociates into H+ and HCO3-. The increase in H+ causes the solution to become more acidic...
Carbon dioxide reacted with water and formed carbonic acid
CO2 + H2O —› H2CO3
