Does carbon dioxide represent one molecule of carbon dioxide?
Yes, carbon dioxide is one molecule. A molecule is an arrangement of atoms, and carbon dioxide is one carbon atom with an oxygen atom bound to both sides.It can be represented this way: O=C=OOr this way: CO2So, CO2 represents one molecule, but multiple atoms.
What effect does the nucleus have on atomic spectra of different elements?
Aside from determining how many electrons the atom has, the nucleus does not affect the spectra of that atom in any way.
Why is there no such molecule as methene?
All alkenes have carbon-carbon double bonds, with only one carbon in 'methene', there's no way for the single carbon atom to bond with anything. The carbon atom can't possibly bond itself, right?
How would you describe the bonding in graphite?
graphite is an allotrope of pure carbon (basically meaning it is made of carbon but arranged in a different way creating different characteristics). Each carbon is bonded to three other carbon atoms covalently in layers. you may be asking now... but carbon has room for 4 extra electrons, what happens to the extra one?. a good question, this electron for each carbon atom becomes delocalised and exists in between the layers of carbons bonded to carbons. this makes graphite a good conductor of electricity due to these delocalised elctrons.
What is one way the phosphorus cycle is different from the carbon nitrogen and water cycle?
Phosphorus generally does not exist as gas
What occurs during During The Dark Reactions Of Photosynthesis?
Hydrogen atoms released from water are added to carbon dioxide molecules so that carbon oxygen bonds are broken and carbon atoms can join together. Carbon dioxide consists of a carbon atom attached to two oxygen atoms. That way, a carbon atom joins two other carbon atoms. One of the hydrogen atoms joins the carbon atom and one of the hydrogen atoms joins with the oxygen atom. You end up with the carbon atom attached to four different atoms.
How does carbon atom become stable?
The only way a carbon atom becomes stable is if they gain or lose electrons. Typically carbon will bond with other elements to do this.
What way is an atom of uranium?
Uranium contain 92 protons and electrons.The number of neutrons is 142 inU-234, 143 in U-235 and 146 in U-238.

What is the right way to write the chemical name of carbon dioxide that has one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms?
CO2 Is the chemical formula of carbon dioxide
Is uranium soluble?
Not in anything that I can think of--certainly not water. Uranium is one of the densest materials on Earth.
What is unique about the way carbon bonds?
They can form Double Bonds, or bond with more than one atom at a time.
Do atoms have the same protons?
No each atom is different in some way
Why cant you date an old stone tablet by doing carbon-14?
Carbon-14 decay is normally used to date organic matter. A better way to date rocks is by measuring the decay of potassium, uranium and other elements.
A student wishes to find out if carbon is a more massive atom than oxygen What is the quickest way to find this information?
a periodic table
What is a carbon atom made of?
Carbon atoms are defined as those atoms which have 6 protons in their nucleus. Aside from that I will note that carbon is a very important element. All forms of life that we know of, including ourselves, could not exist without carbon atoms.
How does carbon dioxide differ from carbon monoxide?
Carbon dioxide is one carbon atom with two oxygen atoms. When you breath, you exhale carbon dioxide, as do all animals. Plants require carbon dioxide to grow; essentially they need it the way animals need oxygen. If you get too much carbon dioxide in a confined space, you can suffocate as it will displace the oxygen. Carbon monoxide is one carbon atom with one oxygen atom. It is the result of incomplete combustion of organic materials such as wood, gasoline, etc. It interferes with the ability of your blood to transport oxygen. If you breath enough of it you can loose consciousness and die. That is what happens if people sit in a closed garage with the car running.
