#CO_2#

That is carbon dioxide.

If I charged water with an arbitrary amount of this gas, it may give off protons if it reacts to form carbonic acid.

Acids make solutions' concentration of #H^(+)# higher.

To answer your question, carbon dioxide gas won't "release" hydrogen ions because it has none unless it interacts with water.
