How do you produce less carbon dioxide?
By restricting the burning of wood and coal we can reduce the production of carbon dioxide. To minimize the production of carbon dioxide we should also restrict direct oxidation of carbon.
Is it true that air breathed out contains more carbon dioxide than air breathed in?
Yes. When you breath, you take in oxygen and breathe out CO2. According to Wiki Answers (see link), an exhaled breath is about 4% CO2. Atmospheric CO2 is between 300 and 400 ppm, or 0.03% to 0.04%.
What happened to the carbon cycle as humans cut down rain forests?
Since there were less trees using carbon dioxide and converting it to oxygen, more carbon dioxide was released into the atmosphere.
How does the oxygen and carbon dioxide content of exhaled air differ from inhaled air?
Exhaled air has more carbon dioxide and less oxygen than does inhaled air.
What does exhaled air contain more of than inhaled air?
More Oxygen, because some of it is processed into Carbon Dioxide (CO2).
What is a gas that you breathe out?
Carbon dioxide Nitrogen Water vapor (and believe it or not you also breath out Oxygen - although less than you breathed in).
Is carbon dioxide the same as carbon monoxide?
No it's not the same. Carbon monoxide is CO and carbon dioxide is CO2. Carbon monoxide comes out of car exhausts and is poisonous if breathed in. CO2 is much less dangerous, though it is also a health hazard if the concentration is high enough. There are two oxygens atoms attached to the carbon atom in carbon dioxide (thus the name). There is only one oxygen atom attached to the carbon atom.
How does burning less fossil fuels reduce the amount of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere?
When you burn fossil fuels to make enrgy, carbon dioxide is released. So, if you burn less fossil fuels, less carbon dioxide is released.
How is the air you breathe in and the air you breathe out different?
The air you breathe out has different amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and a few other substances in it than the air you breathed in. Your lungs absorb a lot of the oxygen, for example, which is then carried by red blood cells to your heart and muscles. Your body also produces carbon dioxide as a kind of waste product which is in the air you breathe out. So the air you breathe out has less oxygen but more carbon dioxide than the air you breathed in did. There are also other smaller changes that you could look up.
Is carbon dioxide dense or more dense than air?
Carbon Dioxide is less denser than air.
How do you produce less carbon dioxide?
By restricting the burning of wood and coal we can reduce the production of carbon dioxide. To minimize the production of carbon dioxide we should also restrict direct oxidation of carbon.
Does an economical car reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air?
No car can actually reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air, but an economical car will add less additional carbon dioxide to the air than a less economical one.
Do trees help the earth?
they breath out oxygen for the humans and breath in carbon dioxide which helps the earth have less carbon dioxide
What describes seasonal changes in the levels of carbon dixode in the atmosphere?
Plants use carbon dioxide, so there is less carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in the summer.
Why is the increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide less than the amount of carbon dioxide emissions produced by burning of fossil fuels?
Because trees consume carbon dioxide and produce oxygen.
What Physical change or chemical change is Breathing?
Breathing is a chemical process. When air is breathed in, it reacts chemically; when a person breathes out, they release more carbon dioxide than they breathed in, and less oxygen.
Is carbon dioxide gas more soluble at higher temperatures?
No, as with any gas carbon dioxide is less soluble at higher temperatures.
