What substance used to detect the presence of carbon dioxide?
Test for Carbon Dioxide: Bubble unknown gas in lime water. Limewater should go milky if Carbon dioxide is present. Test for water: Add anhydrous copper sulphate crystals (white in colour) to unknown solution. If solution goes a brilliant light blue colour, water is present as the hydrous copper sulphate crystals were formed. Did this help?
What color does sugar produce you n a flame test?
Flame of itself is yellow/white. This is white hot carbon particles. Carbon, per se, does not form ions and so cannot give a flame test colour.
What are related colors?
Related colour's are when the secondary colour and another secondary colour have the same primary colour.
Is purple a warm color cool color or neutral color?
As a secondary colour made from the mixture of Red (a warm colour) and Blue (a cool colour) the "temperature" of the purple will depend on how much of which colour is in it.
Is color a proper noun or common noun?
"Colour" can be a noun if it refers to a colour like red or green. It is a common noun. "Colour" can also be a verb if it refers to the act of applying colour to something.
What is the function on haemoglobin?
It helps in transport of O2 and CO2 It gives the red colour to the blood Haemoglobin will combine also with carbon monoxide to form carboxyhaemoglobin, which has the effect of reducing the amount of oxygen that can be carried in the blood.
Where is food poisoning more likely to be found?
Food that is the wrong colour
What is the colour of carbon?
black
When does oxyhemoglobin form?
Oxyhaemaglobin is an unstable molecule in the blood stream. On breathing in air( oxygen) oxygen combines with hemaglobin to form oxyhemaglobin. It is then transported around the body to the point of usage (muscle movement ), whereupon, it discharges the oxygen component to combines with carbon dioxide, formed from muscle activity. It is now carboxyhemaglobin, and is transported back to the lungs , where the carbon dioxide is discharged/(uncombined) , and more oxygen is re-combined. Such are the subtlties of hemaglobin it will combined and discharge oxygen and carbon dioxide., as part of the normal respiritary physiological process. However, if carbon MONOXIDE(CO) is breathed in this process between oxygen and carbon DIOXIDE (CO2) is broken. So no more oxygen can be breathed in or carbon dioxide breathed out. Hence Carbon Monoxide poisoning. Carbon Monoxide is a very powerful LIGAND. There is only one oxygen atom difference between CO & CO2 , but it makes all the difference between normal functioning and 'death'. Hemaglobin is a very large molecule, with iron(III) (Fe^(3+)) at the centre of the porphyrin ring, and there is a very subtle interplay between electrons in this molecule that allows the oxygen and carbon dioxide, to combine and discharge. Iron in oxidation state 'III' is a RED/Brown ion, hence the colour of blood.
What colour is carbon atom?
Blue
Why carbon monoxide is harmful?
When a carbon atom and an oxygen atom combine to form carbon monoxide, it is a relatively unstable molecule. The oxygen atom can still bond with something else, and when breathed enters the blood and attaches to red blood cells. Once it does that, it becomes stable, but unfortunately that stable state is unusable by the body - it has displaced a needed regular oxygen atom, and prevented the body from getting some of its oxygen. Losing a little oxygen from your blood is okay - the body has a lot of reserve capacity built in - but if you breathe in a lot of carbon monoxide, then too many red blood cells become attached to the carbon monoxide and not enough are free to carry the necessary oxygen. Depending on how much carbon monoxide is breathed in, the person will slowly or quickly suffocate from a lack of oxygen in the blood.Or, put another way,The red colour in red blood cells comes from haemoglobin. This molecule combines with oxygen to form oxy-haemoglobin. As the blood circulates round the body, any cell needing an atom of oxygen takes it from a red blood cell and plain haemoglobin reappears. When carbon monoxide gets into the lungs it attaches itself to a red cell, forming carboxy-haemoglobin. Carboxy-haemoglobin cannot carry oxygen. Cells cannot remove the carbon monoxide from the red cells, so the haemoglobin is permanently put out of action. If too much carbon monoxide is inhaled, enough individual body cells die from oxygen starvation to cause the death of the whole body.
How does CO affect respiration?
CO or carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas which has adverse effects on the body. It doesn't affect the respiration mechanism of the body particularly but is life threatening. The pigment present in blood, haemoglobin which imparts colour to the blood and is a carrier of oxygen, has more affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. Hence, it becomes a carrier of carbon monoxide if the amount of this gas respired is not controlled. CO affects the brain, central nervous system, causes dizziness and even death. Inhalation of CO can be controlled by controlling pollution and incomplete fuel combustion which is a major cause for the emission of the toxic carbon and its compounds.
Why is carbon monoxide is so toxic?
It cannot be detected (it is a odourless, colourless and tastless gas). However, CO binds with haemoglobin (in red blood cells) much more easily than O2 and it is irreversible. Thus, when a person breathes in too much CO, there won't be enough haemoglobin to carry O2, and that can kill him/her in the space of 25 minutes if not treated immeadietly.
What is barbon gray color?
Carbon gray is black in colour
What colour is carbon 14?
Carbon-14 itself is a radioactive isotope of carbon and does not have a distinct color. In its natural state, carbon-14 would not have a visible color.
What is the colour of carbon element?
It depends on its form. It is usually either in diamond form, where it is colourless, or it is graphite form, which is dark grey/black. The form it takes is to do with how the carbon atoms are bonded to each other.
Why is incomplete combustion more harmful to humans?
The incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons produces carbon monoxide, which is a poisonous and potentially fatal gas to humans. Carbon monoxide reduces hemoglobin's (a pigment/protein in your blood that carries oxygen) ability to carry oxygen around your body, essentially starving your organs of oxygen.
