Why carbon monoxide poisonous whereas carbon dioxide is not?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is poisonous because of its ability to bind strongly with hemoglobin in red blood cells, preventing oxygen from binding and being transported in the body. On the other hand, carbon dioxide (CO2) is a natural byproduct of metabolism and is removed from the body through respiration. In small amounts, CO2 is not toxic, but in high concentrations, it can lead to respiratory issues due to its ability to increase acidity in the blood.
Poisonous gas made up of carbon and hydrogen?
