Burning is often incomplete, in which case there is carbon monoxide as well as carbon dioxide. Burning also releases heat. Carbon is seldom burned in a chemically pure form. Impurities are released in the form of ash, or other gases such as sulfur dioxide.
Yes, photosynthesis does contribute to the addition of carbon to the atmosphere. During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide from the air and convert it into glucose, releasing oxygen as a byproduct. When plants are burned or decompose, the carbon stored in them is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
Complete combustion produces carbon dioxide. Incomplete combustion produces carbon monoxide.
carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide
A human inhales oxygen and exhales carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere when wood or coal is burned.
Certainly. All hydrocarbons produce carbon dioxide when burned.
They are released in the atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide (CO2)!It produces sulfuric oxides. (This was written by a 12 year old.)
No, burning hydrogen does not produce carbon dioxide. When hydrogen is burned, it reacts with oxygen to form water vapor, releasing energy in the process. Carbon dioxide is produced when carbon-containing fuels, such as fossil fuels, are burned.
energy, water, carbon dioxide and sometimes (if incomplete combustion) some carbon monoxides and nitrous oxides (if there are impurities)
The gas released when trees are burned is carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change. It is released as a byproduct of the combustion process, where the carbon stored in the tree is oxidized and released into the atmosphere.
