CO2 is called Carbon Dioxide because it has 2 Oxygen molecules.
Its better name is Carbon dioxide = CO2
The formula is would be CO2. Bur since carbon is a nonmetal that system of naming is not usually used. The compound is instead called carbon dioxide.
What is the question? What about Mg and CO2? Does Mg burn in CO2. Yes it does.
Copper doesn't react with carbon dioxide at room temperature.
2PbO + C ------> 2Pb + CO2 so metallic lead and carbon dioxide.
Because also exist the carbon dioxide - CO2.
There is no single compound called carbon oxide. There are two oxides of carbon: carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Both are compounds.
Its better name is Carbon dioxide = CO2
CO2
Carbon is a nonmetal. Thus this is a nonmetal oxide.
CO2
carbon-di-oxide
thermaldecompositionMetal Carbonate ----------> Metal Oxide + Carbon dioxide
Calcium oxide is CaO, and carbon dioxide is CO2.
