Usually, but there's not as much as you might think, given its importance to the carbon-oxygen cycle of life on Earth. It averages about 400 ppm, or about 2/5 of 1% of the atmosphere (but this varies greatly in some areas, including dense human civilization). As a byproduct of fossil fuel combustion (greenhouse gas), it is under scrutiny as a major moderator of Earth's climate. Since it is soluble, the oceans may contain up to 50 times more carbon dioxide than the air.

∙ 14y agoI'm sorry this might not answer you question, but with what little research I have done on a question similar to this one I believe it doesn't float on it, it seems to be like a tiny bubble, mixing with it, making the water rise. Then it pops and the water falls.

What does the increase of carbon dioxide in the air mean?
It means that there is more carbon dioxide (unbreathable air) gets in to are air
Is carbon dioxide air pollution why?
Carbon dioxide is not an air pollutant. However excessive carbon dioxide release into the atmosphere is a pollutant as it contributes to acid rain
Does respiration add carbon dioxide to the air?
Yes, respiration does add carbon dioxide to the air
How is carbon dioxide released into the air by carbonate rocks?
When acid rain reacts with the carbonate rocks, carbon dioxide is usually released into the air.
What percent of expired air is carbon dioxide?
Approximately 4-5% of expired air is carbon dioxide
Does carbon dioxide dissolve into air?
Carbon dioxide IS air
Is carbon dioxide than air?
Carbon dioxide is more dense than air.
Do autotrophs remove carbon dioxide from the air?
do autotrophs remove carbon dioxide from the air
What is the carbon dioxide?
carbon dioxide is a air which comes from the plants
What does the increase of carbon dioxide in the air mean?
It means that there is more carbon dioxide (unbreathable air) gets in to are air
Does carbon dioxide come from water?
Carbon Dioxide is the air we breathe out. :)
During photosynthesis plants use what as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy?
The Carbon source for photosynthesis is the air
Is carbon dioxide air pollution why?
Carbon dioxide is not an air pollutant. However excessive carbon dioxide release into the atmosphere is a pollutant as it contributes to acid rain
Does respiration add carbon dioxide to the air?
Yes, respiration does add carbon dioxide to the air
How does plants get the carbon dioxide?
Plants get carbon dioxide from the air we exhale. We breath out carbon dioxide and plants give us oxygen. So when we breath oxygen the air that we exhale is carbon dioxide that goes to plants.
What is the source of the carbon in the sugars made by plant's?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the air.
What gas is released by the candle to make fixed air?
carbon dioxide :p
