If you give artificial respiration to a person who needs oxygen aren't you giving him carbon dioxide?

yes and no. you are giving them just enough o2 to sustain life. the air we exhale does contain about 16% o2 thats alot better than no o2

Is carbon dioxide essential for life?
Yes. Carbon dioxide in the greenhouse effect keeps the Earth warm enough for life. Carbon dioxide is also a vital part of the carbon cycle, important for the growth of all vegetation, as well as human and animal breathing.
Is carbon neutral or ion?
An ion is charged by definition. A carbon atom itself rarely carries a charge, and generally bonds covalently. It is better thought of as an uncharged atom that bonds by sharing electrons (covalently) rather than by taking or giving them (ionically).
Giving balance equation state how you will convert methane to carbon dioxide?
Combustion. Methane is CH4 and it can undergo combustion with oxygen (O2) to form CO2 + H2O.CH4 + 2O2 ===> CO2 + 2H2O ... balanced equation
Does a diamond burn?
YES, Diamond burns at about 800°C, giving off carbon dioxide just like charcoal.Another AnswerDiamond has the highest melting point of any mineral: 3,820 degrees Kelvin, which is 6,416.33 degrees Fahrenheit, or 3,546.85 degrees Celsius.
How can calcium hydroxide be used to test for carbon dioxide?
Calcium hydroxide can be dissolved to create a saturated aqueous solution, which is sometimes referred to as limewater. When carbon dioxide is bubbled through the limewater, the carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid. The carbonic acid is first deprotonated to form a bicarbonate anion, which is then deprotonated once more to form the carbonate anion. The carbonate anion then reacts with a calcium cation to form calcium carbonate (the compound in limestone). Calcium carbonate is insoluble in water, and thus precipitates out. The formerly clear limewater solution has thus become cloudy, giving an indication that carbon dioxide is likely present. Reaction scheme is given below: CO2(g) + H2O --> H2CO3 H2CO3 + OH- --> HCO3-+ H2O HCO3- + OH- --> CO32- H2O CO32- + Ca2+ --> CaCO3(S) Note that if too much carbon dioxide is added or too little calcium hydroxide is used, then calcium bicarbonate will form instead of calcium carbonate. Calcium bicarbonate is water soluble, and thus will appear to produce a negative test.
What gas is giving off by a plant in sunlight?
Carbon Dioxide, or CO2, through the process of photosynthesis.Water + Carbon Dioxide =(energy)= Glucose + Oxygen
Is it True or false that the respiration in plants is taking in of carbon dioxide and giving off oxygen?
It is true. That is why Plants and Animals need each other hah
How is cellular respiration different from photosyntesis?
Photosynthesisis a process that converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds in presence of sunlight.Respirationis the set of metabolic reactions that take in cells of living organisms that convert nutrients like sugar into ATP (adenosine tri phosphate) and waste products.Thus, Respiration changes glucose and oxygen into energy giving you carbon dioxide as a by product, while photosynthesis takes carbon dioxide and water and creates glucose and water.
Where do the human lungs get the carbon dioxide to replace oxygen?
Taking in oxygen and giving out carbon dioxide is called breathing. Breathing is only a part of the process Respiration. In respiration, th lungs take in oxygen, which mixes with blood and is then circulated to each and every cell of the body. After this, in a cell, the oxygen is utilised for oxidation of food materials to generate energy for various metabolic processes. This process liberates carbon dioxide since it is a chemical reaction involving many steps. This carbon dioxide is then carried from each cell by the blood to reach the lungs where it is expelled out.
Why does carbon dioxide naturally occur in the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide occurs in various ways with the industrial processes being the main contributors. Transportation also emits carbon dioxide to the environment and that is why it is referred to as a necessary evil.
What is the viscosicy of carbon dioxide?
u tell me i am asking for the answers not giving them
What do we as people give off to plants?
Life giving carbon dioxide.
What is the repiratory system's function?
Do you mean respiratory system? If so, in the case of aerobic respiration, it is to take glucose in the blood, and oxygen in the blood and create energy, giving of the waste products of carbon dioxide and water.
Differences between breathing and respiration?
Breathing is the gas exchange between organisms and their environment. Whereas respiration is both the exchange of gases and its in environment and is also the controlled release of energy from food.
How are plants and fish working together to make resources for one another?
Plants and fish work together because they are part of an entire cycle. Fish make carbon dioxide as a byproduct of respiration and plants use carbon dioxide and water to make carbohydrates and energy while giving off oxygen that the fish need.
Would a large plant and a burning candle placed under a bell jar will the candle burn the plant because of the plant is giving off carbon dioxide?
The candle will burn BUT it is because the plant is giving off OXYGEN and is TAKING IN carbon dioxide.
How does a fox take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide by?
A fox takes in oxygen and gives off carbon dioxide via the carbon dioxide cycle. All plants and animals are part of the carbon dioxide cycle. However, plants do things a little differently and take in carbon dioxide to use for photosynthesis. This results in plants giving off oxygen.
