Methane molecules are nonpolar and barely dissolve in water.

Sodium hydrocarbonate undergoes hydrolysis to release hydroxide ions that can end up consuming :

Hydrochloric acid, a strong acid, ionizes to produce protons and chloride ions when dissolved in water:

Carbon dioxide reacts with water to produce hydrocarbonic acid, a weak acid that slightly ionizes, also producing protons but to a significantly lesser extent than hydrochloric acid does.

the atomic mass is the bottom number on the element.
