What do fossil fuels give out when they are burnt?
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide to name but a couple of gasses.
How do you balance liquid water plus carbon monoxide gas to give hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide gas?
H2o + 2co = 2h + co2
What use does carbon monoxide have?
Large quantities of aldehydes are produced by the hydroformylation reaction of alkenes, carbon monoxide, and H2. In the Fischer-Tropsch process carbon monoxide is hydrogenated to liquid hydrocarbon fuels. This technology allows coal or biomass to be converted to diesel. In the Monsanto process, carbon monoxide and methanol react in the presence of a homogeneous rhodium catalyst and HI to give acetic acid. This process is responsible for most of the industrial production of acetic acid. An industrial scale use for pure carbon monoxide is purifying nickel in the Mond process. In biology, carbon monoxide is naturally produced by the action of heme oxygenase 1 and 2 on the heme from hemoglobin breakdown. This process produces a certain amount of carboxyhemoglobin in normal persons, even if they do not breathe any carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide are burnt to provide heat for manufacturing processes, to heat homes and to separate metals like iron and nickel, from their ores and even to purify them. In the form of producer gas or water gas, it is widely used as a fuel in industrial operations. The gas is also an effective reducing agent. Carbon monoxide also reacts with certain metals, especially iron, cobalt, ruthenium and nickel, to form compounds known as metal-carbonyls. Some of the carbonyls have unusual physical and chemical properties that make them useful in industry and catalysis. The highly toxic nickel tetracarbonyl, for example, is used to produce very pure nickel coatings and powders.
Give structural formula for carbon dioxide CO2?
The structurer of Carbon Monoxide is ' :C triple bond O: ' or ':C///O:'
What do plants take in and give off through the process of respiration?
They take carbon monoxide in and and give oxygon
Will a candle set off a carbon monoxide detector?
No, because candles do not give off Carbon Monoxide.
What kind of gas does a car give out?
CO, (or Carbon Monoxide)
What plastic can give off carbon monoxide when burned?
All plastics give of carbon monoxide when burned, the amount of carbon monoxide depends on what type of plastic is being burned, so don't burn plastic cause too much carbon monoxide is bad for all life on earth and the ozone! :)
What do fossil fuels give out when they are burnt?
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide to name but a couple of gasses.
Why do old cars give more carbon monoxide?
Old cars give off more carbon dioxide because they do not have catalytic converters. Catalytic converters act as catalysts, converting dangerous substances such carbon monoxide into harmless compounds.
Are there websites that give advice on how to fix household appliances?
If you are looking for advice on how to fix household appliances, you can't do better than AP Wagner.com. APWagner has both advice to help you fix your appliances, as well as the parts you need available for purchase.
Why is carbon dioxide not good reducing agent as carbon monoxide?
The carbon atom in carbon dioxide has an oxidation state of 4+ (It's missing 4 electrons.) The carbon atom in carbon monoxide has an oxidation state of 2+ (It's only missing two electrons.) A reducing agent is something that will give electrons to another substance. Carbon dioxide has less electrons to give than carbon monoxide, making it not as good of a reducing agent.
What gases do aeroplanes give off?
Carbon Monoxide depending on the type of fuel.
What is the symbol equation of carbon monoxide burns in oxygen to give carbon dioxide?
This equation is 2 CO + O2 -> 2 CO2.
Which gas do fossil fuels give out when they are burnt?
carbon monoxide, CO2, sulpher di oxide
