Can leaving your oven open and on overnight set off carbon monoxide?
if it is gas no if not yes i would not try it if i was u
How do you clear carbon monoxide from a home?
Open the windows and doors and set up some fans to blow the carbon monoxide outside.
How are carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide similar?
Answer: Carbon compounds are ordinarily converted to CO2 in combustion if there is enough air (oxygen). Carbon monoxide (CO) is formed when carbon compounds are burned in a limited amount of air. Lets picture what a carbon atom looks like. Because of the arrangement of the electron shells a carbon atom looks a lot like a tetrahedron with four corners or a caltrop's four points. When carbon is completely burned two oxygen atoms have each grabbed onto two corners (or points of the carbon atom. One set of two corners fills up (this gives off heat). After all the atoms are satisfied the next set fills up to make carbon dioxide (thhis gives off more heat).When not enough oxygen is present the atoms essentially share the oxygen so many only get the first set of points filled. This leaves most of the carbon as carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide can be collected as a product and burned again if provided with more oxygen.
Can a dog die from carbon monoxide?
As a short answer, yes. This however depends on the duration of the exposure, concentration of the gas and health of the individual. As an example for people the OSHA short term exposure limit or a health worker is 100 ppm and the long term exposure limit is 25 ppm. Below these limits there is no effect.
Are prefab chimneys as safe as regular chimneys?
With wood-burning regular chimneys you have to worry about your house being set on fire, but with prefabricated fireplaces the only concern is oxygen levels becoming lower. Luckily, these fireplaces come with sensors that shut the unit down automatically if there is a problem. If you decide to go this route, you may want to install carbon monoxide detectors in your house as well, just to ensure the gas fireplace doesn't cause any carbon monoxide poisoning in your home.
Will a candle set off a carbon monoxide detector?
No, because candles do not give off Carbon Monoxide.
Does a natural gas leak set off carbon monoxide alarm?
It should not as natural gas is not carbon monoxide.

How is carbon monoxide converted into carbon dioxide in a catalytic converter?
Carbon monoxide is very inflammable, so you simply set light to it. It then takes up another oxygen atom and forms the stable molecule CO2. By the way, in the UK before the days of North Sea gas, the gas distributed to homes came from gasworks which used coal to produce it. It was known as town gas and was almost entirely CO. Being very poisonous people would commit suicide by putting their heads into an unlit gas oven. The gas companies used to put something into the gas to make it smell to warn people in case there was a gas leak.

Can charging a car battery set off a carbon monoxide detector?
while doing air test in our factory ,,,test conducted on a sitting battery truck gave off a reading off 10 to 15 ,,,,a charging battery gave off reading of 50 in up ,,,,a lift truck running for more then 2 hrs gave off reading of 200 plus ,,,,,,10 to 20 reading if taken in a house you are to get out ......
Does carbon rust in water?
Let's call rusting "oxidation," because rust is oxidized iron. Carbon will oxidize, but it takes quite a bit of heat to get it to do so; the easiest way to oxidize carbon is to set it on fire and let it become carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Putting carbon in water won't cause the oxidation reaction to happen, because there's not enough heat.
What is the term 3co in chemistry?
NO such term !!!! 3co should be 3CO , which is three molar ratios of carbon monoxide. or 3Co is three molar ratios of the element Cobalt. NB When quoting chemical formula, single letter symbols are ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter. Two-letter symbol are , first letter is a capita letter and the second letter is small/lower case. This is the international standard set up by IUPAC. So 'co' does not mean anything.
What is the harm of coal made products?
All living things are made of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and quite a lot of other elements, but carbon is one of the most prominent of these elements. Thus, when organic beings die, their bodies turn to fossils (over a long time and under conditions of high pressure). These fossils have a lot of carbon, just like the living thing did. Fossil fuels are also fossils or are found in fossils, and hence have a lot of carbon. Coal, being a fossil fuel, has high carbon content. This is what makes coal useful as high carbon content means more stuff to get burnt and release energy. However, this carbon when combusted (set on fire) releases Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and sometimes when it burns very fast and the entry of air in the environment is less, then suspended carbon particles. These emissions are harmful, especially carbon monoxide and suspended carbon particles, and also contribute to global warming.
