Formula for carbon dioxide?
The WORD EQUATION FOR CARBON DIOXIDE IS: CARBON + OXYGEN ---> CARBON DIOXIDE. ;)
Why is methane more potent than CO2 in terms of its impact on the environment?
Methane is more potent than CO2 in terms of its impact on the environment because it has a higher global warming potential. Methane traps heat in the atmosphere more effectively than CO2, leading to a stronger greenhouse effect and contributing to climate change at a faster rate.
Why does the presence of CO2 lead to a decrease in pH levels?
The presence of CO2 leads to a decrease in pH levels because when CO2 dissolves in water, it forms carbonic acid, which increases the concentration of hydrogen ions in the water, making it more acidic.
How does the ocean affect the rate of accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere?
Oceans act as a carbon sink, in fact they are the largest carbon sink absorbing about 1/4 of the CO2 we put into the air. However, with global warming considering that CO2 dissolves better in cold water there is a worry that the oceans will not be able to hold as much CO2 and will begin to release it into the atmosphere
Why do CO2 concentrations cycle throughout the year?
If you look at a globe, you will notice that the majority of the land area of the earth lies north of the equator. As a result, more vegetation exists on the earth when it is summer in the northern hemisphere than exists when it is summer in the southern hemisphere. More vegetation means that more CO2 can be sequestered. The annual CO2 cycle is the result. If you want a good visualization of this process: watch An Inconvenient Truth - it is all explained there It's a bit more than that, during winter plants release CO2, so during the summer more O2 is released and CO2 sequestered, and in the winter the process is reversed (O2 being used in the respiration by detrivores). Since, as has already been stated, most land mass is in the Northern Hemisphere there is not enough Southern summer growth to balance the CO2/ O2 and so the concentrations cycle.
Which has more molecules a gram of CO2 or a gram of H2?
A gram of CO2 has more molecules than a gram of H2 because CO2 has more atoms per molecule (three atoms in CO2 compared to two in H2). Thus, CO2 will have a higher total number of molecules per gram.
Is there more CO2 or O2 in places of low concentration?
CO2
Is NO2 more acidic than CO2?
Yes, NO2 is more acidic than CO2.
How does the destruction of the Amazon affect global warming?
trees convert CO2 to O2. CO2 is the cause of the warming The less trees there are to convert CO2, the more CO2 there will be
Why the blood pH in veins is more acidic?
There is more CO2 in the veins and whenever there is CO2 there is also carbonic acid which will cause the PH to be more acidic.
How do you treat low carbon dioxide in blood?
High CO2 in the blood is corrected by increasing the rate of respiration. By breathing more you take in more oxygen and let out more CO2. High CO2 in the atmosphere is corrected by photosynthesis which uses light and CO2 as energy and releases oxygen as a product.
Is there more CO2 or nitrogen?
nitrogen
Which emmitts more CO2 C12H26 C2H4?
The compound C12H26 emits more CO2 when burned because it contains more carbon atoms per molecule compared to C2H4. When hydrocarbons are burned, the carbon atoms combine with oxygen from the air to produce carbon dioxide (CO2). Therefore, a compound with more carbon atoms will produce more CO2 when combusted.
Why does modern technology release more co2?
Modern technology needs more energy to work, which means more fossil fuels need to be burned. Fossil fuels release CO2. With more fossil fuels being burned because of a higher energy demand from modern technology, more CO2 is released.
What is more reactive CO2 or CO?
CO is more reactive than CO2. This is because CO has a single bond between the carbon and oxygen atoms, which makes the oxygen more readily available for reactions. CO2, on the other hand, has double bonds between the carbon and oxygen atoms, making it less reactive.
Under which conditions is more CO2 dissolved in a carbonated beverage?
More CO2 is dissolved in a carbonated beverage when the beverage is under high pressure and low temperature.
What is the density of co2 gas compared to the air in the room?
CO2 gas is more dense than the mixture of air we breathe. You can see this when dry ice sublimates.
