Read the directions for YOUR gun. CO2 does not explode, but may leak down.
Monitors observed the students during the test. Carbon dioxide monitors registered high CO2 in the house. The scientist monitors the level of bacteria in Lake Erie.
CO2 regulates the body breathing functions. The normal range is 23 to 32. A level of 31 is within the normal range. High levels of CO2 could indicate a breathing problem.
Lake Nyos is one of three world killer lakes. Due to build up of CO2 at the lake bed, whenever pressure is disturbed due to volcanic or seismic activities this CO2 can be released to the surface killing thousand of humans and every breathing thing on its path.
CO2 dissolves in water and forms H2CO3, a weak acid. Therefore, the presence of CO2 will lower the pH slightly from its previous level.
Normal CO2 in the blood is the same as Normal PH. Ph is 7.35-7.45 CO2 is 35-45
I don't know, but it is bad.
It really is not a problem. Currently CO2 levels are at a global level of 0.037%. Nature produces the vast bulk of this CO2 and life would stop on the planet if level dropped to 200 PPM. If you look at the Vostok webiste (where we get our old climate data from) one of the complaints that science experts have is the level of CO2 is too low! Only 280 PPM. Without CO2 the planet would be extremely cold and quite dead. Our oceans, which collect most of the CO2 from or atmosphere, do an awesome job of pulling the CO2 out of the air!
Due to build up of CO2 gas at the bottom of the lake. With a small volcanic or seismic activity the gas was released to the surface killing thousands.
At the lowest level it is water and CO2. Plus sunlight.
An increase in blood CO2 levels will result in an increase in carbonic acid formation, and therefore lower the pH.
CO2 in the blood stream can be measured from bicarbonate in the blood or pCO2 (partial pressure). Normal CO2 measured from bicarbonate is 22-28 mEq/L Normal pCO2 is 35-45 mmHg
