Best Answer

Carbon Dioxide because without water you die and with carbon dioxide(concentrated in large amounts) you will have trouble breathing, or possibly die.

Is oxygen more soluble in water than Carbon Dioxide?

Carbon dioxide is more soluble in water.


Carbon dioxide is more soluble under?

Carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than O2. The most soluble gas in water is ammonia. Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid.


Why is carbon monoxide more dangerous than carbon dioxide?

Carbon monoxide bonds the the hemoglobin in out red blood cells. This renders our blood unable to transport oxygen. Carbon dioxide does not do this.


Is it true that carbon dioxide dissolves easily in water?

Yes, the dissolved carbon dioxide reacts chemically with the water making carbonic acid, allowing more carbon dioxide to dissolve.


Does the amount of sunlight affect how much carbon dioxide goes into the ocean?

Carbon dioxide absorption by the oceanis affected by how much is there already and solubility equilibrium.The second first - carbon dioxide dissolves into sea water depending on temperature. Warmer water can hold less. As a consequence sunlight can reduce the absorptive capacity by warming the water.Carbon dioxide enters the water to bring up the carbon dioxide levels to saturation levels. If the level in the water is educed by being absorbed by plants (algae) there is a deficiency of carbon dioxide and more carbon dioxide enters the water to make up the deficiency. Algae is more active when exposed to sunlight and absorbs more carbon dioxide. Sunlight thus enhances that amount of carbon dioxide transferring to the water from the atmosphere.

Which is more soluble in water oxygen or carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide compared to oxygen is more soluble in water. CO2 reacts with water to form carbonic acid, H2CO3. This explains its high solubility in water.


How does carbon dioxide affect carbon cycle?

Why is carbon dioxide from your body?

Carbon Dioxide is toxic in large concentrations. Mild symptoms include nausea and muscle cramp, but carbon dioxide poisoning can be fatal in extreme cases.Not to be confused with carbon monoxide poisoning, which is harder to detect and a lot more dangerous.


Why is carbon dioxide able to be stored more effectively in ocean water than in fresh water?

Carbon dioxide is able to be stored more effectively in ocean water than in fresh water because the salt accumulates in ocean water.


What is the role of aquatic land system in reducing emission of carbon dioxide?

All bodies of water can absorb carbon dioxide; also aquatic vegetation absorb carbon dioxide. But the capacity of normal absorption is limited; if the concentration of carbon dioxide is too high water become more and more acidic and this strongly influence the life in waters.
