Does the hydrogen on methane go when it becomes carbon dioxide?
Methane burns in oxygen and gets oxidised. Carbon is oxidised to carbon dioxide, hydrogen to water.
Is carbon dioxide a macro molecule?
No, carbon dioxide is not a macromolecule. Macromolecules are large molecules made up of smaller subunits linked together, while carbon dioxide is a small molecule composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.
Where does the carbon in CO2 go Doesn't gravity and rain clean the CO2 from the atmosphere?
No. Carbon dioxide is thoroughly mixed into the atmosphere and cannot separate from the air simply though gravity. Some carbon dioxide does go into water to become locked away in carbonate minerals, but the primary way of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is through photosynthesis, a process by which plants and algae convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen. Currently we are producing more carbon dioxide than the plants can absorb, resulting in an increase in the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
What gas is produced by respiration?
Carbon dioxide is produced as a byproduct of cellular respiration in organisms, including humans and animals. During respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce energy, water, and carbon dioxide.
What gas is given off by cellular respiration?
Carbon Dioxide
If you burn plants where does the carbon primarily go to?
Into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
What happens to liqiud when testing for carbon dioxide?
Limewater - if you bubble Carbon Dioxide through limewater it will go cloudy!
Where does the carbon dioxide go?
In a fume cupboard!
Does the hydrogen on methane go when it becomes carbon dioxide?
Methane burns in oxygen and gets oxidised. Carbon is oxidised to carbon dioxide, hydrogen to water.
Do plants make carbon dioxide?
No, plants use carbon dioxide to go through the process of photosynthesis to make oxygen.
Will a burning spilint go out in carbon dioxide gas?
Yes, a burning splint will go out in carbon dioxide gas because carbon dioxide does not support combustion. When the concentration of oxygen is low, the splint will not have enough oxygen to sustain combustion and will be extinguished.
What gas is exhaled from the lungs?
carbon dioxide
Is carbon dioxide an element or carbon?
Carbon is an element, but not carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a compound of carbon and oxygen.
How does carbon dioxide go back to the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide goes back to the atmosphere through respiration, the decomposition of plants and animals, and combustion.
Is carbon dioxide a macro molecule?
No, carbon dioxide is not a macromolecule. Macromolecules are large molecules made up of smaller subunits linked together, while carbon dioxide is a small molecule composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

Where does the nitrogen go before it enters the plant?
carbon dioxide
