The carbon symbol is C.
The symbol for carbon monoxide is CO. Carbon monoxide contains one carbon atom (C) and one oxygen atom (O).
C is the symbol for carbon.
Carbon dioxide is not a state symbol. It is a chemical compound composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.
The symbol for carbon is C and its atomic number is 6.
Carbon dioxide is composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms. The chemical symbol for carbon dioxide is CO2.
When writing the chemical formula of a substance you write the symbol of each element and next to the symbol you write the number of atoms of that element there are in the molecule. The number is written in subscript. However, do not write a number next to the element if there is only one atom of it in the substance. A carbon monoxide molecule contains one carbon atom (symbol: C) and one atom of oxygen (symbol: O), and so the formula is CO. The mon- in monoxide merely means that there is one oxygen atom in the molecule. It cannot be called carbon oxide because there is also carbon dioxide (CO2) which has one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.
Carbon's symbol is C. A carbon atom has no charge, but a carbon ion has a +2 charge.
Symbol of carbon is C its valency is +4
The chemical symbol for the carbon monoxide molecule is CO. i am a college level chemistry student and that 7th grader was wrong.The chemical symbol C would represent Carbon. Carbon Monoxide- CO. Carbon Dioxide- CO2. It's that simple.
CO2
== == We breath out Carbon Dioxide gas which has the symbol CO2 It contains one atom of Carbon and two of Oxygen
The chemical symbol for carbon monoxide is CO.
