Why is there an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
burning fossil fuels
When burning fuels - what is produced?
Carbon dioxide
How does burning fossil fuels affect the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The burning of fossil fuels affects the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by increasing it.
Environmental impacts from carbon dioxide emission?
greenhouse effect ~> gobal warming
Do air conditioners emit carbon dioxide?
Air conditioners do not emit carbon dioxide because they are sealed systems. Their electric motors are also emission free unlike gas or electric engines. However, most electricity is still generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), so any use of air conditioners has a carbon footprint (that is, carbon dioxide emissions).
What is the opposite of carbon dioxide?
Negative carbon dioxide emission is the opposite of carbon dioxide. The formula for carbon dioxide is CO2.
What groups are responsible for creating carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide is the product of organic materials (and carbon) burning or is released in the thermal decomposition of carbonates, fermentation etc.
Make sentence with word 'emission'?
The increasing emmission of Carbon dioxide is thought to be largely responsible for Global warming.
What is best reducing emission of carbon dioxide?
The best way of reducing emission of carbon dioxide is to use carbon-free or reduced-carbon materials
What is it called when carbon dioxide is released?
Emission.
Why is the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change so concerned about the emission of carbon dioxide?
The emission of carbon dioxide from human activities (largely the burning of fossil fuels) has been identified as one of the main contributors to global warming. (The other is deforestation.) Carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, released from burning fossil fuel is old carbon from millions of years ago. So it is not part of the carbon cycle. Rather it is adding to and overloading the carbon cycle, which cannot remove it. This extra gas is causing global warming.
What gases will extinguish a burning splint?
carbon dioxide
Can carbon dioxide come from fire?
Yes. Burning carbon or a carbon compound will produce carbon dioxide.
Where does carbon dioxide originate?
Carbon dioxide is the result of burning carbon or carbon containing materials.
Does burning coal give off carbon dioxide?
Yes, the burning of any hydrocarbon produces carbon dioxide. This equation illustrates the burning of a hydrocarbon.CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + energyAs you can see carbon dioxide is produced along with water and energy.Yes burning coal or any carbon based fuel produces carbon dioxide.
Why is there an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
burning fossil fuels
How does cars put carbon dioxide into the air?
Burning gasoline releases the carbon dioxide.
