Identity Crisis Of Carbonic Acid

Identity Crisis Of Carbonic Acid

Chemistry nerds unite! This SpongeBob meme perfectly captures the existential crisis of carbonic acid (H₂CO₃). The blue character is having a logical breakdown about acid definitions—if acids are defined by their behavior in water, then shouldn't carbonic acid actually dissolve instead of decomposing into water and carbon dioxide? The punchline hits when our frustrated friend demands "DISSOLVE IN WATER!" but carbonic acid stubbornly follows its own decomposition pathway (H₂CO₃ → H₂O + CO₂). It's basically the chemical equivalent of telling someone "just be normal" and watching them do exactly the opposite. The perfect representation of that one compound that refuses to follow the rules in your chemistry textbook!
