When sodium carbonate is dissolved in water, the equation is $Na_2CO_3 (s) --- > 2Na^+ (aq) + CO_3^{2-} (aq)$ .

When carbon dioxide is placed in water, aqueous carbon dioxide is formed: $CO_2 (g) --- > CO_2(aq)$

<h3>Dissolution of compounds in water</h3>

Some compounds are water-soluble, some are just partially soluble, while others are insoluble in water. Some soluble or partially soluble substances dissociate in water into their component ions. These substances are said to be ionic.

Sodium carbonate, like every other sodium salt, is soluble in water. It dissolves in water to form an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate.

While in solution, sodium carbonate dissociates into its component ions according to the following equation:

$Na_2CO_3 (s) --- > 2Na^+ (aq) + CO_3^{2-} (aq)$

Carbon dioxide, on the other hand, does not dissociate in water. Instead, it dissolves in water where most of it remains as aqueous carbon dioxide in equilibrium with a small amount of hydronium ion and hydrogen carbonate ion.

Since the hydronium and hydrogen carbonate ions formed are so minute, the equation of the reaction can be written as: $CO_2 (g) --- > CO_2(aq)$

MrRa [10]

Explanation:

In the context, a vial which is used in store medical samples is filled with water at room temperature. And the vial is kept on a cold water. Also a water bag containing warm water is kept near the vial.

The cold water kept at the bottom of the vial is having lower kinetic energy while warm water will have higher kinetic energy than the others. Since the water in the vial is at room temperature and it is in touch with the cold blue water, the water in the vial will loose or give its temperature to the cold blue water through conduction as well as convection process since temperature always flows from a hot body towards the cold body.

On the other hand, the warm water placed next tot he vial will give its temperature to the atmosphere.
