What elements are used to make carbon doixide?
Carbon dioxide is composed of one carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. The elements used to make carbon dioxide are carbon and oxygen.
What are carbon tracers?
Carbon tracers are isotopes of carbon, such as carbon-13 or carbon-14, that are used to trace the movement and transformation of carbon in different environmental systems. They are commonly used in studies to understand carbon cycling in ecosystems, trace the sources of carbon emissions, and investigate carbon sequestration processes.
Does carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide have a benefit?
For the applications of carbon monoxide see the link below. Carbon Dioxide is taken in by green plants and used to make Oxygen that we breathe. Carbon Dioxide is used to make 'Carbonated' beverages. Carbon Dioxide is used in many industrial applications, such as welding. Carbon Dioxide is used to make Dry Ice. Carbon Dioxide is used in Fire Extinguishers.
