Yes.
CO2
carbon dioxide (CO2)
carbon dioxide formula: CO2 structure: O=C=O
It is generally CO2, also known as Carbon Dioxide.

CO2
CO2 gets exhaled. Excess gas in the blood is released in the lungs.
If you do not breathe the blood in your veins and arteries can not flow. The exchange of CO2 and oxygenated blood can not mix and exchange in the heart. The gas from CO2 will suffocate you and you will die.
alveoli take co2 from your blood and turns it into gas
CO2 is transported in blood as a disolved gas or a gas in solution.
Blood is a mixture of dissolved gases (O2 and CO2), plasma (liquid), and cells (red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets).
According to U.S. EPA, Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990-2004, 1 therm of natural gas burnt produces 11.7 lbs. of carbon dioxide emissions. Therefore, the Carbon Coefficient for natural gas is: 117 pounds of CO2 per million BTU, or 0.12 pounds per cubic foot of gas.
To the best of my knowledge, blood becomes less acidic because more CO2 is removed from the alveoli through breathing. To understand this, you need to know how gas exchange mechanism in your body works. First off, when you breath, gas exchange occurs in lung's alveoli (little sacs in your lungs). The O2 that is breathed in will replace the CO2 in the blood cells. The CO2 is then pushed to the alveoli and gets blown off as you exhale. Now, how is CO2 related to blood acidity? - In the blood, CO2 and H2O react with each other to form H2CO3 (carbonic acid). See how it works now? This carbonic acid makes your blood more acidic when presence. So what happens if you breath harder and rapider? - More CO2 gets blown off. When more CO2 is removed from the circulation, the lower the H2CO3 is produced by the reaction between CO2 and H2O, the more pH increases, and the blood is less acidic. And as the CO2 level becomes too low, and the blood is too alkaline; the action reverses.
Carbon dioxide is removed from the blood by the lungs and exhaled when you breath out.
CO2. Oxygen decreases after diffusion into the blood and CO2 being released in respiration is expired in greater concentrations.
