The earliest patent for a carbon monoxide detector was from 1927. But, it wasn't until 1993 that First Alert introduced the first detector.

What's a good personal gas detector for carbon monoxide?

First Alert plug in combination explosive gas/carbon monoxide alarm with battery backup is a great way to detect leaks in your home. It can also detect propane gas, methane gas, and natural gas.


Does carbon monoxide burn your eyes?

No. The first symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are dizziness and headache.


What is carbon monoxide cycle?

Carbon monoxide is first produced by either human activities involving combustion or a variety of natural processes. From there on, it reacts with oxygen/hydrogen radicals in the atmosphere and become carbon dioxide. The fact that most carbon monoxide will become carbon dioxide when left in the atmosphere long enough can help explain why the carbon monoxide cycle is not taught in school.


Are carbon monoxide levels are usually highest during cold weather?

The carbon monoxide levels in your home may be at their highest during cold weather for a couple of reasons. First, if the weather is cold you are likely running the heater, and gas- or oil-fired heaters can produce carbon monoxide. Second, you probably keep the windows and doors closed as much as possible, trapping carbon monoxide inside the house. The carbon monoxide emitted by a car may increase when it is cold because the engine burns fuel less efficiently when the engine is cold.


How can you obtain carbon monoxide from the mixture of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide?

if you want to purify carbon monoxide, at first you'll need to create high pressure and temperature. then in that atmosphere let carbon monoxide react with oxygen. .... the carbon monoxide will turn into carbon Di oxide..then you can simply purify carbon Di oxide. - - - - - Pure carbon monoxide is an important industrial gas, and the easiest way to make absolutely pure CO is to heat solid carbon to over 800 degrees C and pass pure oxygen over it. At that temperature, CO2 does NOT form and you get pre-purified CO. If you have "producer" gas--CO and nitrogen--you could liquify the CO in an air liquifying machine.

In combustion is carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide formed always formed?

The combution process is two stage, carbon monoxide is formed first and if excess oxygen is present an the carbon monoxide reacts with additional oxygen to form carbon dioxide. 2C + O2 ---> 2CO + O2 ---> 2CO2

What is the first order of treatment for a person suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning?

Immediate treatment for CO poisoning is to remove the victim from the source of carbon monoxide gas and get him or her into fresh air.


What is CO the equation for?

'CO' is NOT an equation, but a chemical formula. 'CO' is Carbon Monoxide. NB Do not confuse with 'Co' , which is the chemical symbol for cobalt. NNB For all chemical symbols; a single letter symbol is ALWAYS a capital letter, e.g. 'C' Carbon. For a two letter chemical symbol, the first letter is always a capital letter and the second letter is always small/lower case, e.g. 'Fe' Iron.
