How much carbon dioxide will be produced when one kilo of pure carbon burned?

C + O2 -------> CO2 12g of carbon produces 44g of carbon dioxide 1kg of carbon will produce 3-67kg of carbon dioxide


Does plants also change oxygen into carbon dioxide?

Yes, but at night. It make oxygen more than it does carbon dioxide though. ---- Plants, like animals, do have metabolisms by which energy is generated through the oxidation of sugar, which produces carbon dioxide. However, green plants consume much more carbon dioxide, in the process of photosynthesis, than they produce by means of their metabolism, and they produce much more oxygen than they consume.


How much of human created carbon dioxide is produced by hydroelectric dams?

Only that required to build the dam and make its component machinery. Hydroelectric power (produced by the operation of the dam) does not produce any new carbon dioxide.


Do plant produce carbon dioxide?

Yes, for the most part, all life as we (humanity) understand it, produces carbon dioxide. HOWEVER, Plants generally produce a NET NEGATIVE amount of carbon dioxide. Animals breathe in Oxygen, use this to burn stored energy and perform work within the body, and in the process bond the oxygen to carbon producing carbon dioxide which is exhaled. Plants do the same thing. they absorb oxygen, and use it in the process of burning energy to fuel growth, repair, produce fruit, etc. The misconception is common that plants do not use oxygen and do not create carbon dioxide. This stems from the process of photosynthesis, wherein the plant absorbs carbon dioxide from its surrounding atmosphere, uses it in converting light energy to a form usable by the plant, and in so doing separates the carbon and oxygen atoms, 'breaking' the carbon dioxide. The oxygen is then released back into the environment, In most plants, they consume more carbon dioxide and produce more oxygen than the reverse. As a result, the plant takes in more carbon dioxide than it expels, and as such 'effectively' (but not literally) producing no carbon dioxide.

Do cars produce a carbon footprint?

Yes. Your carbon footprint is the measure of how much carbon dioxide equivalent you, or any of your activities produce. A car burns petrol (gasoline) so its use has a carbon footprint.


How much carbon dioxide is produced by the ocean?

The oceans are regarded as carbon dioxide sinks, not sources. This means they remove carbon dioxide, not produce it. Carbon dioxide dissolves from the air into ocean water. Once there it is removed by plankton and algae, by corals and mollusks in making shells, and by chemical action.

Do any plants produce as much carbon dioxide as humans?

No, it's the other way around. Plants intake Carbon dioxide and put out Oxygen. In the theory of how the world formed, this is how the atmosphere got to contain Oxygen, from plants spreading over the continents and producing Oxygen.

Why do germinated seeds produce carbon dioxide?

Because dry seeds have a very low metabolic rate and do not produce much Co2. Germinating seeds produce more Co2.
