Co2 is sparingly soluble in water and if we mix CO2 in H2O we get a very weak acidic solution H2CO3.. known as carbonic acid.

carbon dioxide is sparingly soluble in water, hence the following reaction takes place when CO2 is dissolved in H2O-
H2O + CO2 --------------> H2CO3
Hence in the above reaction, H2CO3 is formed.
It is called CARBONIC ACID.

If there were any reactions, then we would have H2Co3, but this seldom happens, so they usually show the H2Co3 with (H2o+Co2)! because these two can't make H2Co3 in common situations.

If such a combination does take place, the reaction would produce carbonic acid-that is H2CO3.

the answer is hydrocarbonate or carbonic acid, H2CO3
Chemical equation:
CO2 + H2O ----> H2CO3

we don't combine these elements..
but if scientists try to,
the result would be H2CO3...

Nothing great. But if you throw in photosynthesis, now that's something BIG.
Go ask a plant.
