It is sort of tricky question. One molecule of carbon can combine with only one molecule of oxygen. It can not combine with two molecules of oxygen. Incidentally one molecule of carbon is composed of one atom of carbon. One molecule of oxygen is composed of two atoms of oxygen.

Is carbon dioxide an element or a molecule?

Its a molecule because it is made up of 1 part Carbon(element) and 2 parts Oxygen(element). These elements combine to form a molecule


What do you get if you combine one carbon atom with three oxygen atoms?

A molecule containing one Carbon atom and three Oxygen atoms, CO3, is called Carbon Trioxide. It is unstable and normally decays into carbon dioxide and oxygen.


Is the carbon dioxide a substance made up of molecules?

It is a molecule (not plural). 1 carbon, 2 oxygen (=oxide).


if the reactants in a chemical reaction are carbon oxygen and oxygen what would the product be?

If carbon and oxygen react, the product would typically be carbon dioxide (CO2). This reaction occurs when carbon (C) and oxygen (O2) combine, creating one molecule of carbon dioxide.

Elements combine to form a?

When elements are combined in a substance, the product is called a compound. For example, a water molecule is a compound molecule containing the elements hydrogen and oxygen.


Are carbon and oxygen molecules?

NO!!! They are elemental atoms. However, if they combine they form the molecule 'Carbon Dioxide' (CO2). NB A molecule is any combination of two or more different atoms. e.g. Water (H2O) , Sulphuric Acid (H2SO4), Potassium hydroxide (KOH) et.seq.
