A carbon dioxide tank must contain only CO2.
But many mixtures of gases containing CO2 may be prepared.

What would happen if you light a match near carbon dioxide?

I don't think anything would happen. In order for the methane to burn (or for that matter, the match to ignite) oxygen must be present. If the room contained 100% methane, there would be no oxygen for it to react with and therefore it would not combust (i.e. burn).


Where would you find gas as matter?

Gas as matter can be found in various places, such as the Earth's atmosphere (composed of gases like nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide), in the fuel tank of a car (e.g. gasoline), and in industrial processes where gases are used for various purposes.


How many barrels are in a 500 barrel oil tank per inch?

To find out how many barrels are in a 500 barrel oil tank per inch, you would need to know the dimensions of the tank. Once you have the dimensions, you can calculate the volume of oil in the tank per inch and then divide that by the volume of a barrel to determine the number of barrels per inch.


How many barrels are In a 300 barrel oil tank per inch?

If there are 300 barrels in the tank and you want to determine how many barrels per inch, you would need to know the dimensions of the tank to calculate the volume of oil per inch. The calculation would involve dividing the total volume of 300 barrels by the height of the tank in inches. Without the specific height of the tank, it is not possible to provide an exact answer.


How many barrels are In a 400 barrel oil tank per inch?

To calculate the number of barrels in a 400 barrel oil tank per inch, you would need to divide the total capacity of the tank (400 barrels) by the height of the tank in inches. For example, if the tank is 100 inches tall, there would be 4 barrels per inch (400 barrels / 100 inches = 4 barrels per inch).

Where does the tank keep getting its carbon dioxide from?

air out side the tank


What is a buffer tank in wastewater plant?

A buffer tank adds carbon dioxide to wastewater. How much carbon dioxide is added and dissolved in the water affects the pH. In short, a buffer tank is used to adjust the pH of water during treatment.


Does septic tank vapor contain carbon dioxide?

Yes, septic tank vapor can contain carbon dioxide, as it is a byproduct of the decomposition process of organic matter within the tank. The gas produced in a septic tank includes carbon dioxide, methane, and other compounds. It's important to ensure proper ventilation to prevent the buildup of dangerous gases.


What type of fire extinguisher should be a vessel with a permanately installed fuel tank?

Carbon Dioxide or foam.


How does the fish get its oxygen and how does carbon dioxide is removed?

The water that the fish swims in passes over the gills - these work like our own lungs - taking in oxygen, and expelling carbon dioxide. This is why you need to change the water in the tank on a regular basis - because the level of carbon dioxide increases daily.


What process can decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the water in a fish tank?

To decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in a fish tank, you can increase aeration by using an air pump or a sponge filter, which promotes gas exchange at the water's surface. Additionally, introducing live plants can help, as they absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Regular water changes can also aid in maintaining lower CO2 levels by removing excess dissolved gases.


Will carbon dioxide gas blow up balloons?

Yes, carbon dioxide gas can be used to blow up balloons. When carbon dioxide gas is released into a balloon, it fills the space inside the balloon, causing it to inflate. Carbon dioxide can be produced by mixing baking soda with vinegar or by using a carbon dioxide tank.


What test can you carry out to show that carbon dioxide is denser than air?

One of my favorites is to get a big bath jar and put dry ice in the bottom. Cover it (loosely) to keep air from stirring it up and let some of the dry ice evaporate. IF carbon dioxide is heavier than air, the carbon dioxide will fill the bottom of the bath, and you can float a soap bubble filled with ordinary air on the heavier carbon dioxide layer. Try it and see.You could also construct an apparatus with candles at various heights and connect it with tubing to a carbon dioxide source (such as a compressed gas cylinder). As the carbon dioxide enters the tank with the candles, it should fill up the tank in such a way that the lowest candles are extinguished first.


The burning of fuel such as propane releases?

The formula for the combustion of propane is: C2H6 + 5O2 --> 2CO2 + 3H2O So each mole of propane creates two moles of carbon dioxide. One mole of propane is 30 g, one mole of carbon dioxide is 44 g So each gram of propane creates (2x44)/30)= 2.93 g of carbon dioxide on combustion. In common terms a 20lb tank of p for a BBQ creates a bit less than 60 lb of carbon dioxide


When an underground gasoline storage tank is to be removed what chemical is used to purge the tank?

An inert gas, such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide, is commonly used to purge underground gasoline storage tanks during removal. These gases help displace any remaining fuel vapors and reduce the risk of fire or explosion during the removal process.


Can a twenty ounce carbon dioxide paintball gun tank shoot with compressed air?

NO the gases are different densities and the tanks are specifically made for that gas pressure. If you can afford a gun that needs compressed air then you can afford the tank too.


What is a VIE tank?

VIE means Vacuum Insulated Evaporator tank. It used to hold Liquid nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and other gases in their liquid form. The tank is constructed in a way that it has space (vacuum) between the outside surface and the main container to act as insulation.
