They are two different substances.
'Co' is the elemental symbol for Cobalt.
'CO' is the formula for Carbon Monoxide.
NB
In chemical symbols. A one letter symbol is always written as a CAPITAL letter.
A two letter symbol has the first letter as a capital letter and the second letter is always small/lower case.
'Cobalt' is a two letter symbol so is written as 'Co'.
'Carbon monoxide' is a compound of two one letter elemental symbols viz. 'C' Carbon and 'O' oxygen .
Other examples are
H = Hydrogen
He = Helium
U = Uranium
Np = Neptunium.
So do NOT confuse the symbolism as you may be thinking of the wrong substance.

∙ 13y agoscientifically speaking CO is the chemical notation for carbon monoxide and Co is the symbol of cobalt.
in case of grammer this 'co' is used as something with simultaneous action.like co-worker , co-operate etc

∙ 15y agoCo is the symbol for the element Cobalt. CO is carbon, C, and oxygen, O. CO is carbon monoxide. This is what you get when you burn carbon without enough oxygen. It is a poisonous gas.

∙ 12y agoWhile Co is the element symbol for cobalt, CO is the chemical compound carbon monoxide.

∙ 8y agoCO is carbon monoxide, which is a fusion of carbon and oxygen, and which will kill you. Co is cobalt.

What is the balanced equation for CO2 C CO?
CO2 + C --------> 2CO
What are theses compounds CO2 CO CH4?
CO2- carbon dioxide. CO- carbon monoxide. CH4- methane.
Of co CO2 nh3 sf4 and bh3 which exhibit resonance?
CO2
What pair of substances best illustrates the law of multiple proportions?
carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Explain what the products and reactants are in the following equation C plus CO2?
The reactants are C and CO2. CO is formed when C and CO2 are reacted. So the product is CO.
What is the balanced equation for CO2 C CO?
CO2 + C --------> 2CO
What is the balanced chemical reaction of CO2---CO O2?
This reaction is:2 CO2 = 2 CO + O2
Is dry ice co or CO2?
CO2 (carbon dioxide)
What molecules is the heaviest CO2 H2O co or h2?
CO2
What are theses compounds CO2 CO CH4?
CO2- carbon dioxide. CO- carbon monoxide. CH4- methane.
Is Co and CO2 a Element or mixture?
Capitalization matters when it comes to chemical formulas Co is the element cobalt. CO is the compound carbon monoxide. Co2 doesn't exist CO2 is the compound carbon dioxide
How do you obtain CO from mixture of CO and CO2?
CO dissolves in Ammoniacal Cuprouys chloride solution.Hence when a mixture is passed through the above CO is absorbed,&CO2 passes through.
Of co CO2 nh3 sf4 and bh3 which exhibit resonance?
CO2
How do you get CO from CO2?
CO dissolves in Ammoniacal Cuprouys chloride solution.Hence when a mixture is passed through the above CO is absorbed,&CO2 passes through.Read more: How_do_you_obtain_CO_from_mixture_of_CO_and_CO2
Do the chemical formulas CO and CO2 represent the same compound?
No. CO stands for carbon monoxide and CO2 stands for carbon dioxide. CO has one carbon and one oxygen. CO2 has one carbon and two oxygens.
What is the chemistry of producing sponge iron in coal based DRI plant?
3Fe2O3 + C =2Fe3O4 + CO Fe304 + C = 3Fe0 + CO FeO + C = Fe + CO 3Fe2O3 + CO = 2Fe3O4 + CO2 Fe3O4 + CO =3 FeO + CO2 FeO + CO = Fe + CO2 and C + CO2 = 2CO In this ways iron oxide get reduced to iron which is called sponge iron.
Is carbon monoxide CO2?
No, carbon monoxide is CO. CO2 is carbon dioxide.
