If electric cars are charged with renewable energy, that is, from wind, water, solar etc, then, yes, they have practically zero carbon dioxide emissions.
However, most electricity today is generated largely from burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), so, due to transmission losses, purely electric cars may result in more carbon dioxide emissions than petroleum fueled cars ... it's just that the emissions are shifted from the car itself to the location of the power plant used to charge it.
No but they need to be charged and the production of electricity uses a lot, most is made from burning coal.
No,They are eco.
On average less than 1%. It is estimated that volcanoes emit on average 200 million tonnes of CO2 a year. This includes all volcanoes, hot springs and and undersea hydrothermal vents. Humans emit 26 billion tonnes (2003) a year by burning fossil fuels. The gas burnt onsite at oil wells in gas flares accounts for more CO2 emissions than all volcanoes put together.
Carbon monoxide is produced in the engine and is one of the three exhaust gasses that result from combustion however if your car has a functioning catalytic converter the carbon monoxide should be transformed into carbon dioxide.
An increased rate of breathing as a result of an increased buildup of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream would be best described as an example of?
There would be less Carbon Dioxide In the atmosphere. (APEX)
The amount of CO2 released by humans has increased over the last 200 years. This increase is primarily due to using fossil fuels in industries and vehicles.
China
I'm pretty sure it's acid rain
Carbon dioxide is the result of burning carbon or carbon containing materials.
It's all in the chemistry. CO2, from which the carbon in the wood was derived, is re-released into the atmosphere as the wood burns. (CH2O + H2O) + O2 --combustion--> 2H2O + CO2
Carbon dioxide is formed by the complete combustion of carbon itself or organic compounds.
Carbon dioxide is a product of combustion. It cannot undergo combustion.
carbon dioxide
More carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
no
Such an atmosphere on a planet would be the result of carbon dioxide emitted from volcanoes.
CO2(carbon dioxide) is the result of a chemical reaction in animals' lungs.
Carbon (one atom) and Oxygen (two atoms) combine to make carbon dioxide (CO2). Neither of these elements is an air pollutant, though the result, carbon dioxide, is.
