What happens to oxygen to make carbon dioxide?

Two oxygen atoms hooking up with a lone carbon atom equals......carbon dioxide!!To be truthful, Oxygen is usually found as a diatomic element (O2), so when it goes though bonding with a non-metal (such as carbon), it becomes carbon dioxide, the di- indicating that in this covalent bond, there are two oxygen atoms. Nitrogen Dioxide forms in the same manner.
