A carbonate is a salt of carbonic acid, (H 2 CO 3), [2] characterized by the presence of the carbonate ion, a polyatomic ion with the formula CO 2− 3. The word "carbonate" may also refer to a carbonate ester , an organic compound containing the carbonate group O=C(−O−) 2 .
The bicarbonate ion carries a negative one formal charge and is an amphiprotic species which has both acidic and basic properties. It is both the conjugate base of carbonic acid H 2 CO 3; and the conjugate acid of CO 2− 3, the carbonate ion, as shown by these equilibrium reactions: CO 2− 3 + 2 H 2 O ⇌ HCO − 3 + H 2 O + OH − ⇌ H 2 CO ...
Each blue halo represents one half of a negative charge. In chemistry, an oxocarbon anion is a negative ion consisting solely of carbon and oxygen atoms, and therefore having the general formula C x O n− y for some integers x, y, and n. The most common oxocarbon anions are carbonate, CO 2− 3, and oxalate, C 2 O 2− 4. There are however a ...
At extremely low P CO 2, dissolved CO 2, bicarbonate ion, and carbonate ion largely evaporate from the solution, leaving a highly alkaline solution of calcium hydroxide, which is more soluble than CaCO 3. For P CO 2 = 10 −12 atm, the [Ca 2+][OH −] 2 product is still below the solubility product of Ca(OH) 2 (8 × 10 −6).
Calcium bicarbonate, also called calcium hydrogencarbonate, has the chemical formula Ca(HCO 3) 2. The term does not refer to a known solid compound; it exists only in aqueous solution containing calcium (Ca 2+), bicarbonate (HCO − 3), and carbonate (CO 2− 3) ions, together with dissolved carbon dioxide (CO 2).
Neodymium(III) carbonate is an inorganic compound, a salt, where neodymium is in the +3 oxidation state and the carbonate ion has charge -2. [1] It has a chemical formula of Nd 2 (CO 3) 3. The anhydrous form is purple-red, [2] while the octahydrate is a pink solid. [3] Both of these salts are insoluble in water. [4]
Carbon trioxide should not be confused with the stable carbonate ion (CO 2− 3). Carbon trioxide can be produced, for example, in the drift zone of a negative corona discharge by reactions between carbon dioxide (CO 2) and the atomic oxygen (O) created from molecular oxygen by free electrons in the plasma.

Cerium(III) carbonate Ce 2 (CO 3) 3, is the salt formed by cerium(III) cations and carbonate anions. Its pure form was not yet confirmed to exist in the nature, but Ce-bearing carbonates (mainly bastnäsite group) stand for an ore of cerium metal, along with monazite .
