What are 3 household uses for carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide, is often used for refrideration and cooling.
What gas is often used in fire extinguishers?
Carbon dioxide.
Carbon in the atmosphere is most often found as which of the following compounds?
List the compounds so I can answer your question. I would imagine Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide would be the first 2.
What is released in a addition to carbon dioxide when carbon is burned?
Burning is often incomplete, in which case there is carbon monoxide as well as carbon dioxide. Burning also releases heat. Carbon is seldom burned in a chemically pure form. Impurities are released in the form of ash, or other gases such as sulfur dioxide.
What elements are often found in cleaning products?
oxegen, carbon dioxide and hydrogen
Can carbon dioxide change from a solid directly into a gas?
Yes, this is why solid carbon dioxide is often called "dry ice." Instead of melting, it sublimes directly from a solid into a gas.
How is oxygen used in the mode of respiration?
respiration is the exchange of gasses, most often oxygen and carbon dioxide are the gasses being exchanged, for example, humans take in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide.
Is dry ice flammable?
Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide can cause suffocation, and is not flammable (often used in certain fire extinguishers).
Is carbon dioxide cold in gas form?
No. Carbon dioxide gas is not necessarily any temperature. It may be cold in some cases, but as a component of the atmosphere it is often found at room temperature. Since it is a product of combustion, extremely hot carbon dioxide may be found in most flames.
What happens if plants get too much carbon dioxide?
The plants would have a harder time growing. Carbon Dioxide is similar for plants as Oxygen is for people. However, plants can often adapt to changes in "air quality" much better then people can.
Why paramedics often use a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide instead of pure oxygen to resuscitate victims of carbon monoxide fumes?
They will often use 95% oxygen and 5% carbon dioxide for victims of CO poisoning because they are trying to force the CO off the hemoglobin on the Red Blood Cell.
Is carbon in the air?
Carbon itself is not a measurable component of the air. However carbon-dioxide, - monoxide, various hydrocarbons and soot particulates are often noted. These are carbon containing materials and compounds.
