I'm assuming you're talking about the absorption of CO2 into water. CO2 free water is used to properly measure the amount of CO2 water can actually absorb. CO2 already in the water will reduce the mass of CO2 transferred from the gas, and while I don't believe that there is a specific point at which CO2 can no longer be absorbed by water, the tendency for CO2 to be absorbed into water with CO2 already in it is reduced.

How mdea absorbs h2s and CO2?

MDEA (methyl diethanolamine) absorbs H2S and CO2 through physical and chemical absorption processes. In physical absorption, H2S and CO2 are dissolved in the MDEA solution due to their solubility in the solvent. In chemical absorption, the H2S and CO2 react with MDEA to form stable compounds, which are then removed from the gas stream.


What is CO2 and H2O?

CO2 is carbon dioxide.H2O is water.Putting them together would give you carbonic acid, H2CO3Products:C6H12O6(glucose)+6O2a photosynthesis process ie. done by plants


Does CO2 has gas inside of it?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a gas that naturally occurs in the Earth's atmosphere. It is composed of one carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. So, CO2 itself is a gas and does not have gas inside of it.


What is the name of the main greenhouse gas?

Water vapor. It accounts for almost all of the green house effect, over 70%. CO2 accounts for 5%.A:The main greenhouse gas as far as global warming is concerned is carbon dioxide.


What percentage does co2 contribute to green house gases?

The most abundant greenhouse gas is water vapor. Although not as potent as other greenhouse gases pound for pound, by sheer volume water vapor is the key greenhouse gas. Carbon dioxide is the second largest (by volume) greenhouse gas. Methane and nitrous oxide complete the four primary greenhouse gases, but there are only trace amounts of these in our atmosphere. Since water vapor is about 4% of the atmosphere, and CO2 concentrations are 400 parts per million, 0.04/0.0004 = 1%. In other words, CO2 is roughly 1% of the greenhouse gas.

no. it could olny be a liqid or gas


What is hydration and fluid absorption?

As the name suggests,hydra refers to water and hence hydration means absorption of water and fluid absorption means absorption of any liquid or gas. lol


Is CO2 gas in smoke?

Yes, along with water gas and soot [and Heat].


Is H2O warm water and CO2 cold water?

H2O is the chemical formula for water, whether it is warm or cold. CO2 is the chemical formula for carbon dioxide, which is a gas and not water. Temperature affects the state of water (solid, liquid, or gas) but not its chemical composition.


What is another test for CO2 gas?

Another test for CO2 gas is the lime water test. When carbon dioxide gas is bubbled through lime water, it will turn milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate.


What happens to water vapor concentration when carbon dioxide increases?

Co2 is a acidic gas. water turn acidic when CO2 dissolved.


Which is a good absorber of carbon dioxide gas?

Any hydroxide will completely 'absorb' CO2 gas, but this is a chemical reaction (carbonate is formed), thus not a real absorption in physical sense.


How much CO2 is produced by burning charcoal?

The released gases are carbon dioxide and water vapors; a simple test for CO2 is the absorption in calcium hydroxide.If the burning is not incomplete also carbon monoxide is formed; as impurities - sulfur and nitrogen oxides.
