No, air conditioners just blow out hot or cold air, so they don't produce carbon dioxide.

The use of air conditioners adds to carbon dioxide emissions because energy is used making them, as well as running them. Most electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).

no they don't


Do air conditioners emit carbon dioxide?

Air conditioners do not emit carbon dioxide because they are sealed systems. Their electric motors are also emission free unlike gas or electric engines. However, most electricity is still generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), so any use of air conditioners has a carbon footprint (that is, carbon dioxide emissions).


Why are plants called nature's air conditioners?

it is called natures air conditioners because they purify the air by absorbing carbon-dioxide and releasing oxygen by photosynthesis.the presence of carbon -dioxide increases the temperature of atmosphere.all plants give out in excess water during transpiration in the form of water vapour


Does air conditioners have co2 in it?

Air conditioners do not contain CO2 as a refrigerant. Typically, air conditioners use refrigerants such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) which are not the same as carbon dioxide (CO2). CO2 is not commonly used in air conditioning systems due to its properties.


How does the carbon in coal become part of the carbon dioxide in the air?

When coal is burnt the chemical change combines carbon from the coal with oxygen from the air to produce carbon dioxide.


What molecule from the air is broken down from the Calvin cycle?

Carbon dioxide is the molecule from the air that is broken down during the Calvin cycle in photosynthesis to produce glucose.


What is the role of the oxygen- carbon dioxide cycle?

Through the process of photosynthesis, a plant takes the carbon dioxide from the air produces and releases oxygen back into the air. They produce oygen and use carbon dioxide during the day.


Why you need balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the air?

A balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the air is necessary for maintaining a healthy ecosystem. Plants use carbon dioxide in photosynthesis to produce oxygen, which humans and animals need for respiration. Imbalances can lead to negative impacts on climate, air quality, and overall biodiversity.


What substance returns to air through the process of cellular respiration?

The substance that returns to the air through the process of cellular respiration is carbon dioxide. In cellular respiration, glucose is broken down to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water. The carbon dioxide produced is released into the air when we exhale.


During photosynthesis plants use what as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy?

During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2) as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy. Carbon dioxide enters the plant through small openings on the leaves called stomata and is converted into sugars through the process of photosynthesis.
