The solubility of these non-polar gases depends mostly on London dispersion forces between the water molecules and the gas molecules. Since carbon dioxide is larger (has a higher molecular weight) than methane, it is more polarizable and it therefore has stronger intermolecular forces with water. The strength of intermolecular forces (forces between molecules) is directly related to the solubility of any substance in water.
Carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than oxygen. Carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid in water, which increases its solubility. Oxygen is less soluble in water but is still able to dissolve to some extent.
Carbon Dioxide & Water, Complete burning with excess of oxygen gives out Carbon Dioxide(CO2) + Water , While incomplete burning with limited amount of oxygen gives out Carbon monoxide (CO) + Water
No, Cellular Respiration returns carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere: Photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + Water -> Light Energy -> Sugar + Oxygen Cellular Respiration: Sugar + Oxygen -> C.R. -> Carbon Dioxide + Water
Ethanol+oxygen-carbon dioxide+water
Fossil fuel (hydrocarbon) + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water + energy
No, carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than oxygen. This is why carbon dioxide can readily dissolve in water to form carbonic acid, whereas oxygen is less soluble and does not react as readily with water.
Carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than oxygen. Carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid in water, which increases its solubility. Oxygen is less soluble in water but is still able to dissolve to some extent.
Carbon dioxide is highly soluble in water and blood plasma. 900 ml/ liter carbon dioxide is soluble in water as against 4 ml/ liter of Oxygen. So this question would have been about oxygen instead of carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than O2. The most soluble gas in water is ammonia. Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid.
Oxygen is very sparingly soluble. Carbon dioxide is highly soluble in water or plasma. The respiratory center is stimulated by high level of the carbon dioxide. The respiratory center probably does not analyse the oxygen level.
Oxygen is actually soluble in water to some extent, but it is not as soluble as other gases such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen. The low solubility of oxygen in water is due to its nonpolar nature and the weak interaction between oxygen molecules and water molecules.
This is because Carbon dioxide is about 25 times more soluble in water than oxygen at body temperature. Carbon dioxide is more soluble because a chemical reaction takes place with water when it dissolves forming Carbonic acid when combined with water. There is no chemical reaction taking place when oxygen dissolves in water.
yes
There is no such thing as carbon trioxide. There is the carbonate ion (CO32-). Most carbonates are insoluble in water. There is also carbon dioxide (CO2) which is somewhat soluble in water.
Carbon dioxide will dissolve most easily in water, followed by oxygen, and then nitrogen. This is due to the solubility of each gas in water at standard conditions. Carbon dioxide dissolves readily due to its molecular structure and ability to form weak bonds with water molecules. Oxygen is also moderately soluble in water, while nitrogen is relatively insoluble.
no, only water realeases oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Respiration: Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy/ATP
