An astoundingly large number of compounds can be formed from differing quantities of hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon. But if you mixed charcoal, H2, and O2 together and lit it, depending on the amounts of each, you are probably going to end up with a mixture of mostly CO2 and H2O.

Oxygen can combine with carbon to form two compounds carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide The ratio of the masses of oxygen that combine with a given mass of carbon is 1 or 2 This is an example of?
the law of multiple proportions
What form ( what compound) is the carbon in?
None. If carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen happen to chemically combine, they form an organic compound. 'Compound', not element. (These 3 substances are each an element).
What is the molecular formula for nitrogen oxygen carbon and hydrogen?
Nitrogen, oxygen, carbon and hydrogen are elements that combine to form molecules in a vast number of ways. There is no single molecular formula for them. The symbols for these elements are: nitrogen: N oxygen: O carbon: C hydrogen: H
What process releases carbon into the atmosphere from fossil fuels?
Combustion. Fossil fuels contain carbon, hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen and some other elements. But the largest is Carbon. So when such fuels burn they combine with the Oxygen and Nitrogen in air to form Carbon dioxide, Nitrogen oxides etc. Any form of carbon when burns produces carbon dioxide.
When carbon reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide carbon dioxide is?
When carbon reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide is the product of the reaction.
Oxygen and carbon combine to form calcite?
Calcium, Oxygen and Carbon
What oxygen and carbon combine to form calcite?
Calcium, Oxygen and Carbon
Does carbon and oxygen combine to form an ionic compound?
no, they combine using covalent bonds
What element does carbon combine with in the atmosphere?
Oxygen. Carbon burns to form carbon dioxide, incomplete combustion with insifficient oxygen will produce carbon monoxide.
How do carbon and oxygen combine to form an anion?
The carbonate anion is CO32-.
Oxygen can combine with carbon to form two compounds carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide The ratio of the masses of oxygen that combine with a given mass of carbon is 1 or 2 This is an example of?
the law of multiple proportions
What is the chemical equation for the combustion of coal?
C + O2 ⟹ CO2 Carbon and oxygen combine to form carbon dioxide.
What elements does Nitrogen combine with to form compounds?
oxygen,hydrogen, carbon to name three.
What two elements combine to form carbon dioxide?
Veneger and Baking Soda combined makes carbon dioxideCarbon and oxygen.When any carbon-containing compound reacts with oxygen, carbon dioxide is likely to be formed.
What two ingredients are necessary for combustion?
Carbon and oxygen combine to form carbon dioxide, CO2, during the combustion of fuel.
Which combines eaiser carbon and fluorine or Carbon and Oxygen?
Carbon and oxygen combine easier!
What is a gaseous product of photosynthesis?
In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water combine to form glucose and oxygen. Oxygen is the gaseous product in photosynthesis.
