What would happen to a leaf without carbon dioxide?
Just like human live on oxygen, plants live on carbon dioxide. In absence of carbon-dioxide they will die because they will be unable to create chlorophyll.
Do cactus produce carbon dioxide and take oxygen?
Plants take in Carbon Dioxide and put out Oxygen until they die. When they rot, they create CO2.
How does saving energy reduce carbon dioxide emmisions?
Almost all fuel used to create energy (coal, oil, gas) causes carbon dioxide emissions, therefore not using aka saving energy will reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Nature produces most of the carbon dioxide. Man produces about 6% of all CO2 produced. Much of this by items that would otherwise rot and create CO2 naturally.
What are the primary sources of sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides?
sulfur oxides come primarily from coal burning in plants. Sulfur in coal reacts by combustion with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide. This reacts with ozone or a few other airborne chemicals to produce sulfur trioxide, which can react with rain and water vapor to create sulfuric acid. nitrogen oxides come primarily from high temperature devices, such as automobile and other transportation sources and coal burning plants. Nitrogen gas in the air reacts with oxygen in the air at high temperature to create nitrogen oxides, which can also react with ozone or other chemical agents to produce other nitrogen oxides which can react with rain and water vapor to create nitric acid. Also, carbon from any organic chemical can react with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, which can react with rain and water vapor to create carbonic acid, but carbonic acid is a weak acid and is far less stable than sulfuric or nitric acid and can revert back to water and carbon dioxide easily.
What is an environmental consequence of the use of fossil fuels?
Increased carbon compounds such as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which can create warming and climate changes (especially in the ice-covered polar regions).
What are the main chemical in air pollution that create acid rain?
Acid rain is created by sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide.
What acid does carbon dioxide create?
Carbon dioxide create the carbonic acid - H2CO3.
Is aerated water a mixture or a compound?
Water would be the compound, as it is formed of one oxygen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms. When you aerate the water, you dissolve atmospheric air (which itself is a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapor and other minor gases) into the water to create a mixture of water and air.
What gas is necessary for photosynthesis?
The gas that is necessary for photosynthesis is carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide has a chemical reaction with the water and sunlight to create glucose.
What carbon containing containing compound can produce carbon dioxide?
Many organic chemicals when combusted in oxygen can create Carbon dioxide and water
What process in cells create carbon dioxide?
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Animals plants and fungi create carbon dioxide through what processes?
Animal and plants create carbon dioxide when they perform cellular respiration. Decaying vegetation forms carbon dioxide through fermentation, wherein fungi oxidize carbohydrates.
What does the combination of nitrogen carbon and oxygen create?
this isn't a question
What is an element that will create a triple bond?
Carbon and nitrogen are examples.
Which gas escapes rapdily as we open a bottle of cola?
The gas to create bubbles in the cola is carbon dioxide.
What three things does a leaf need to create energy?
carbon dioxide, water and sunlight carbon dioxide, water and sunlight
How can you create carbon dioxide?
you can make carbon dioxide every time you exhale or take one carbon atom and mix 2 oxygen atoms.
