Why is the temperature of mars and Venus different but they contain equal amounts of carbon dioxide?

They don't have equal amounts of carbon dioxide. They have about the same the same relative abundances of carbon dioxide, both about 96%, but the atmosphere of Mars as a whole is several thousand times less dense than that of Venus, so the total amount of gas and thus the total amount of carbon dioxide on Mars is much less. This results in Mars having a much weaker greenhouse effect. Additionally, Mars is farther from the sun than Venus, so it receives less heat.

How can you prove in an experiment that carbon dioxide concentration and temperature are limiting factors?
To change (increase or decrease) carbon dioxide concentration and temperature (in different experiments, not simultaneously) and to measure the effect on growth.
What causes extreme temperature on different planets of solar system?
Because of the rock and carbon dioxide
What are large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide absorbed by?
The ocean absorbs large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide, and is acidified thereby.
Is air contain both elements and compounds?
Yes. Air contains the elements oxygen, nitrogen, and small amounts of argon. It also contains the compounds: carbon dioxide, water, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide just to name a few.
What colour is carbon dioxide at room temperature?
You can't see Carbon Dioxide at room temperature.
Venus contains high amounts of carbon dioxide would its temperature be higher or lower than the temperature of earth?
because the amounts of earth is
Would it temperature be higher or lower than the temperature of Earth?
It would be higher because it contains high amounts of carbon dioxide
Does carbon dioxide have particulates?
Carbon dioxide does contain particles. One of the carbon dioxide particles is referred to as carbon dioxide hydrate particle. All matter is made up of different particles. Carbon dioxide is a compound.

Does exhaled air contain water?
Yes, exhaled air contains trace amounts of water vapour.people breathe out carbon dioxide
Does carbon dioxide have melanin in it?
Carbon dioxide does not contain melanin.
Is sulfur dioxide given off by burning petroleum?
Some petroleum fuels such as Bunker C or heavy diesel contain significant amounts of sulphidic compounds and some natural fuel gases are known as sour when they contain hydrogen sulfide. In both of these cases when the fuels are burned they will produce sulphur dioxide. In automotive diesel there is a small amount of sulphur. This, because of the combustion conditions, is not released as sulpur dioxide, but as solid sulfate particulate. Fuels which contain no sulphur (refined and treaterd by sulphur removal) do not give off sulphur dioxide.
How are a sulfur molecule and a sulfur dioxide molecule similar?
Both a sulfur molecule (S8) and a sulfur dioxide molecule (SO2) contain the element sulfur. Beyond that they are very different.
