What is Another name for carbon monoxide?
Carbonic oxide or Carbon(II)oxide
Is Carbon Oxide a compound?
There is no single compound called carbon oxide. There are two oxides of carbon: carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Both are compounds.
What type of oxide is Carbon monoxide?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a diatomic molecule with two atoms: carbon (C) and oxygen (O).
Is carbon monoxide an acidic oxide or neutral oxide?
neutral
What 2 gasses are made when Carbon monoxide reacts with nitrogen monoxide?
nitrous oxide
What is the chemical formula for Carbon 5 oxide?
Its better name is Carbon dioxide = CO2
Write a word equation and a balanced equation for the reduction of zinc oxide?
If the reduction involves carbon getting oxidized, it would be... Zinc oxide + carbon -----------> Zinc + carbon monoxide that's ZnO + C ----------> Zn + CO or if the reduction involves carbon monoxide getting oxidized, it would be... Zinc oxide + carbon monoxide -----------------> Zinc + carbon dioxide that's ZnO + CO ----------> Zn + CO2
What helps detect carbon monoxide buildup?
Several types of carbon monoxide detectors exist: biomimetic, electrochemical, metal oxide semiconductor.
Is carbon monoxide a basic oxide?
Nope, it is a neutral gas! all mono oxide gases are neutral..!
Carbon oxide and water produce what?
It depends on which Carbon oxide you are using. For example Carbon dioxide produces Carbonic acid while Carbon monoxide produces Formic acid.
Why can't the formation of carbon monoxide and aluminium oxide cannot be determined directly by experimental means?
carbon monoxide is readily oxidized to carbon dioxide and and aluminium oxide coats al forming an inert layer preventing further reaction.
Why is carbon monoxide called a greenhouse gas?
Carbon monoxide is not usually called a greenhouse gas. It does absorb infrared radiation and trap heat in the atmosphere, which is the definition of a greenhouse gas, but carbon monoxide is very reactive and soluble, so its molecules do not remain in the atmosphere for any significant time.Carbon Dioxide is a serious greenhouse gas, not Carbon Monoxide.
