Can CO form carbonic acid when it's infused with H2O

If it does not, would it peculate through a Alkali-Hydroxyl aqueous soln unmolested such as NaOH?

My first post, would appreciate a few words of wisdom, thanks in advance.

It looks like it can form either sodium carbonate and hydrogen, or else sodium formate. Unlike with CO2, neither reaction is going to happen easily by bubbling it (I assume that's what you mean with peculate) through a solution. NaOH solution probably won't work to scrub CO.

Nearly forgot! At high temperatures, it is possible to turn steam and CO into H2 and CO2, which I guess is the neutral counterpart to the carbonate forming reaction. But the reaction can go the other way too, so you get a mix of CO and CO2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-gas_shift_reaction

Put that in your pipe and smoke it!
