CO2 reacts with water to form hydrogen carbonate (carbonic acid), H2CO3. This molecule is a weak acid and can form HCO3(-) and CO3(2-) upon deprotonation. Keep in mind that CO2 can only form H2CO3 if there is water present, if the conditions are dry (no water present) it has no acidity at all, so neutral.

Use the masses of carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O to determine the empirical formula of the alkane component?
C3h7
Is carbon monoxide an example of an alkane?
No. An alkane is a compound of carbon and hydrogen. Carbon monoxide consists of carbon and oxygen.
Why does a 4 carbon linear alkane have two more hydrogen atoms than a 4 carbon cyclic alkane?
octet rule
What gas is produced by respiration?
Carbon dioxide.
What is an alkane in which a halogen atom replaces one or more hydrogen atoms on a carbon chain?
halo alkane or alkyl halides
Use the masses of carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O to determine the empirical formula of the alkane component?
C3h7
Is carbon monoxide an example of an alkane?
No. An alkane is a compound of carbon and hydrogen. Carbon monoxide consists of carbon and oxygen.
What is a common type of alkane made of three bonded carbon atoms?
Propane is the alkane with three carbon atoms.
Is Octane is seven carbon linear alkane?
No. Octane is an alkane but it has eight carbons.
Does cyclohexane burn in air?
Cyclohexane is an alkane and it burns in air with an orange flame and black sooty smoke. The orange flame indicates incomplete combustion. This means there is a lack of oxygen in the air for all the carbon in the alkane to be converted into carbon dioxide (which is complete combustion) so some carbon and carbon monoxide is formed which is the black sooty smoke (incomplete combustion).
What are methane and carbon dioxide?
Both methane and carbon dioxide are green house gases (GHGs) that contribute to global climate change. Methane is a simple alkane with the chemical formula CH4 (one atom of carbon and four atoms of hydrogen). Carbon dioxide has the chemical formula CO2 (cone atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen). Both methane and carbon dioxide are gases, and each has both biological and non-biological sources in nature.
What is the molecular formula for a 18 carbon alkane?
This alkane is n-octadecane with the chemical formula C18H38.
Why does a 4 carbon linear alkane have two more hydrogen atoms than a 4 carbon cyclic alkane?
octet rule
What are the products of the complete combustion of propane?
carbon dioxide and water oxygen gas and carbon atoms
How many Hydrogen atoms are in an Alkane with 16 Carbon atoms?
A non cyclic alkane always has a number of hydrogen atoms equal to 2c + 2, where c is the number of carbon atoms. Therefore, hexadecane, an alkane with 16 carbon atoms, will have 34 hydrogen atoms.
When a pure alkane is burned which gas is not produced?
Sulfur Dioxide
What is an alkane with 1 carbon named?
Methane, CH4
