The density of a gas is directly propotional to its molecular mass. The main components of air are diatomic nitrogen and oxygen, which have molecular masses off approximately 28 AMU (Atomic Mass units) and 32 AMU respectively. Carbon dioxide has a molecular mass of approximately 44 AMU.

Is root beer more or less dense than water?

Root beer is typically more dense than water because it contains dissolved sugars, flavorings and carbon dioxide. This higher density causes objects to float higher in root beer compared to water.


Is oxygen more soluble in water than Carbon Dioxide?

No, carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than oxygen. This is why carbon dioxide can readily dissolve in water to form carbonic acid, whereas oxygen is less soluble and does not react as readily with water.


Carbon dioxide is more soluble under?

Carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than O2. The most soluble gas in water is ammonia. Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid.


Which is more dangerous carbon dioxide or water and why?

Carbon Dioxide because without water you die and with carbon dioxide(concentrated in large amounts) you will have trouble breathing, or possibly die.


Is it true that carbon dioxide dissolves easily in water?

Yes, the dissolved carbon dioxide reacts chemically with the water making carbonic acid, allowing more carbon dioxide to dissolve.
