What is the benefit of a catalytic converter changing carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide?
Converting carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide is beneficial because carbon dioxide is less toxic to humans and the environment than carbon monoxide. This conversion helps reduce the harmful effects of carbon monoxide emissions on air quality and human health.
Compounds found in the air?
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide
Which new gas is formed when carbon monoxide is oxidised?
Carbon dioxide is formed when carbon monoxide is oxidized. Carbon monoxide reacts with oxygen in the air in the presence of a catalyst to produce carbon dioxide.
What chemical absorbs carbon monoxide?
cuprus ammonium lactate
What fuels are in the air when hydrocarbons are burned?
sulphur oxicide, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and carbon.
What compound is formed when carbon burn in air?
Carbon Dioxide and a very tiny bit of Carbon Monoxide
How burning carbon in air can lead o the formation of carbon monoxide?
The formation of carbon dioxide. Burning coal that releases only carbon dioxide means the coal is completely burnt and more energy is produced. Carbon monoxide is released when the combustion process is incomplete.
What Happens When Nitrogen Monoxide Mixes With Carbon Monoxide?
When nitrogen monoxide (NO) mixes with carbon monoxide (CO), it can react to form nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the presence of oxygen. This reaction can contribute to air pollution and smog formation. Nitrogen dioxide is a harmful pollutant that can have negative effects on human health and the environment.
Why does burning petrol in a car engine produce carbon dioxide as well as carbon monoxide?
because the petrol reacts with the air forming sulphur dioxide. Then the sulphur dioxide goes through the catalytic converter and is then change into a less harmful gas, carbon diioxide and carbon monoxide.
Which gases cause air pollution?
Oxygen, carbon dioxide,carbon monoxide, sulfuric acid, nitrogen, etc.
Do cars emit carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide?
The principle carbon emission from cars is carbon dioxide. There is some carbon monoxide in the direct engine exhaust if the engine does not have the right air/fuel mixture. This is usually removed by proper operation (since 1975) of the catalytic converter.
Do cars pollute the air or people?
Both. Cars emit Hydrocarbons + Nitrogen Oxides + Carbon Dioxide + Carbon Monoxide. People emit Methane and Carbon Dioxide.
