Do trees give off oxygen some times and carbon dioxide at other times?

When you inhale oxygen (comming from the trees), you then exhale carbon dioxide, C02, that goes to the trees and starts the whole cycle over again.

How much more carbon dioxide is there than oxygen?
There is 21% oxygen in the atmosphere and 300 ppm (0.03%) carbon dioxide. This translated to 700 times more oxygen than carbon dioxide.
How do carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide differ?
Carbon dioxide is Co2, while carbon monoxide is minus a oxygen atom and is CO. Carbon monoxide is also ten times more toxic than carbon dioxide.
How does smoking affect carbon dioxide levels?
Smoking increases carbon monoxide levels in the blood as opposed to carbon dioxide. Carbon monoxide ties up hemoglobin so that smokers have lower blood oxygen levels. Chronic inflammation has been linked to the high levels of carbon dioxide that smokers breathe in as it is 200 times the atmospheric rate.
How is carbon dioxide and oxygen different?
Carbon Dioxide: Is a compound, which is made up of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms. Its atomic mass is 44 amu. Plants inhale carbon dioxide during the day and exhale it during night time. All animals exhale it at all times. Oxygen: Is an element, which exists as gas of diatomic molecules (a molecule made up of two atoms of the same element.). It's atom's mass is 16 amu, and mass of the diatomic molecule is 32 amu. Plants exhale it during the day and inhale it during night. All animals inhale it at all times. For other technical differences, you should check other websites :)
How many times can you breathe the same air?
You can't unless the plant breathes the carbon dioxide you release and then releases oxygen, which then you will breathe. Or if you mean literally the same oxygen, it just isn't possible

What is the chemical equation for an imperfect perfect burn?
Perfect Burn: CxHy (Carbon times Hydrogen)+Oxygen=Carbon Dioxide+Water Imperfect Burn: CxHy+Oxygen=Carbon Dioxide+Water+Carbon Monoxide+CxHy
How many times greater is the percentage of oxygen than the percentage of carbon dioxide?
By volume, dry air contains 78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.04% carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases. Air also contains a variable amount of water vapor, on average around 1% at sea level, and 0.4% over the entire atmosphere.There is 523.75 times as much oxygen in air as there is carbon dioxide.
How many times greater is the percentage of oxygen than the percentage of carbon dioxid?

What is in the air at all times?
Air is approximately 20% oxygen, 79% nitrogen and a mixture of argon, other inert gases, methane, carbon dioxide and ozone.
Why can carbon dioxide diffuse in the body 20 times faster than 0xygen?
This is because Carbon dioxide is about 25 times more soluble in water than oxygen at body temperature. Carbon dioxide is more soluble because a chemical reaction takes place with water when it dissolves forming Carbonic acid when combined with water. There is no chemical reaction taking place when oxygen dissolves in water.
What is evidence that supports the law of constant composition?
The mass ratio of carbon to oxygen in carbon dioxide is always 3:8 In a molecule of water, the mass of oxygen is always 8 times the mass of hydrogen
What happens when fuels are burnt?
Carbon dioxide is produced most times as it seperates the carbon from the rest of the compound, and then combines with oxygen, therefore resulting in carbon dioxide. Other polluting gases are methane, nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, ammonia and carbon monoxide.
Explain why at certain times of a day there is no movement of oxygen or carbon dioxide through stomata even though they are open.?
It might be that at certain times there is a balance between the amount of photosynthesis and the amount of cellular respiration going on. Photosynthesis produces the oxygen that respiration needs. Respiration produces the carbon dioxide that photosynthesis needs.
Which is dangerous to breathe carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide?
Both can be dangerous. CO2 from the side of if there is only co2 there is no oxygen. However, Carbon monoxide can bind 10 times stronger to the iron centre in haemoglobin than oxygen does, therefore you cannot transport oxygen around your body. I'd say due to this, CO is likely to be far more dangerous
Is this some times never or always true the molecular structure of carbon dioxide is one carbon atom with 2 oxygen atoms on opposite sides of it?
i believe it's always true. Carbon Dioxide's lewis structure has one carbon atom in the middle with two oxygen atoms on each side. Di means two. If it was one oxygen on each side then it would say monoxide.
