Mother nature has a way of absorbing carbon dioxide. It's called rain. Rain water combines with carbon dioxide to make carbolic acid. The carbolic acid falls to the earth and combines with rock and dirt to make a soft rock. People down wind of large smokestacks have a problem with the acid rain. Too much acid rain will kill trees. Planet earth does not get enough rain to remove the increasing amounts of carbon dioxide we are putting into the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide we are making adds to the problem of global warming.

 

I have wondered if putting water sprayers into our smokestacks will remove the carbon dioxide making acid water. That acid water can be mixed with soil to make soft rock. The soft rock can be used for landfill. Perhaps we can remove carbon dioxide in our smokestacks before it gets into our atmosphere in this way?

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.
