For combustion to occur (that is, a fire to start), oxygen must be present. In an anaerobic environment where oxygen is not present, there can be no combustion reaction. Even though Carbon dioxide contains oxygen (the oxide in dioxide) it must exist as oxygen gas for a fire to start, the carbon and oxygen in CO2 are bonded so tightly that normal reactions cannot separate the two in order for the combustible material to use it. I'm having a hard time attempting to paint a picture of how this works. Imagine this, when a person or animal suffocates due to "lack of oxygen" it is not actually the lack of oxygen that kills them, it is the over abundance of carbon dioxide. When you breath in, you are breathing in everything in the atmosphere, oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and argon. Your body utilizes the oxygen, nitrogen and argon, but it cannot utilize the CO2 so you get rid of it when you exhale. When put into an airtight environment eventually you will have replaced most of the oxygen with carbon dioxide and will only be breathing the CO2 in and since the bonds are too strong for your body to break the carbon and oxygen apart the carbon dioxide is useless to us and our organs and blood do not get the oxygen they need and suffocation occurs. Hopefully this will help you understand a little better that nothing can remove the oxygen from carbon dioxide and like our bodies a flame cannot sustain life with carbon dioxide alone.
The candle wax is mostly a hydrocarbon which, when exposed to oxygen in the atmosphere and ignited, oxidizes. The hydrogen combines with oxygen to form water and the carbon combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. However if you deplete the oxygen (don't provide adequate ventilation), carbon monoxide (CO) will also be be produced.
they convert carbon monxide (which we cant breath) into oxygen (which we can breath)
producers take in carbon dioxide from photosynthesis and so they create the system because consumers eat the producers they get carbon and so on so forth.we eventually release that carbon into the air as carbon dioxide.
Plants photosynthesise by trapping sunlight and taking in carbon dioxide(Co2) through the stomata which are holes found at the underside of the leaf and release oxygen through the same hole.
the retina in your eye making you partially or fully blind................otherwise no it cant
Because the chloroplasts that make chlorophyll are green.
carbon dioxide can be reused and carbon monoxide cant.
its the air around them and the carbon dioxide...without the carbon dioxide, plants cant survive!
No, we cant breath all of the gases for example we cant breath carbon dioxide
Because carbon dioxide is not an element and is a compound
you cant because the object is to create carbon dioxide and H2o from carbon monoxide which is environmentaly safe
It traps the heat and radiation from the sun, so over time the earth will heat up because it cant get through the carbon dioxide 'blanket'.
you actually cant u have to let is photothinsis
well on plants they die and shrivel up like a rasin. then on animals they just cant breathe.
Because when we breath out we let out carbon dioxide and when we breath in we take in oxygen because we cant breath in carbon dioxide . Trees are living just like us so but they breath in carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen so without trees we would'nt be here . also they make great furniture
It is better to say that it is because there is no air of any sort in space. Any gas can carry sound, it is not a special property of oxygen or carbon dioxide.
As we all know , in respiration we intake oxygen and gives out carbon dioxide, for burning also oxygen is needed. In spite of oxygen wood cant be burned and along with burning, the gas coming out from wood is Carbon-dioxide. Oxygen combines with carbon
Actually, you cant get the candles anywhere. The candles were mad for the movie, they dont sell them anywhere.
