What type of gases kill flames?
Carbon Dioxide, or C02
What is the effect of increasing carbon dioxide in the air?
kiira says it may get to the stage where it will kill us:)
Does carbon dioxide kill?
Carbon dioxide kills by keeping oxygen-breathing organisms from getting oxygen. The more carbon dioxide there is, the less oxygen can be contained in the air. If the amount of oxygen falls below a critical level, there is no way for the organism to continue to carry out life-sustaining processes, and the organism dies.
Why is it dangerous to run a engine in an enclosed place?
The engine burn oxygen with petrol or diesel which is a combination of carbon and hydrogen. The exhaust gases should be carbon dioxide and water (H2O) in vapour form. There will also be some incomplete combustion which means in stead of just carbon dioxide and water there will be some carbon monoxide and sometimes even carbon (soot). Carbon monoxide is very dangerous us, just small amounts will kill you. While carbon dioxide on the other hand technically can't kill you, in high enough concentrations you can suffer carbon dioxide poisoning. Just like in a locked and air tight sealed room you'll die of carbon dioxide poisoning before you die if oxygen deprevation. So it's down to inhaling the dangerous exhaust fumes. That'll cause you to pass out and then eventually kill you.
What are the effects of some carbon compounds in your body?
Some carbon compounds in your body, like carbohydrates and fats, are essential sources of energy. Another important carbon compound, carbon dioxide, is produced during cellular respiration and then eliminated from the body through the lungs. Carbon is also a key element in organic molecules like proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids that are crucial for biological functions.
Does carbon dioxide taste of anything?
Tasting carbon dioxide can kill you.
The benefits of using carbon dioxide detectors?
To check if there is too much carbon dioxide in a given area because it can kill you
What are some health and environmental hazards of carbon dioxide?
There are no health hazards from breathing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but breathing pure carbon dioxide will kill you. The environmental hazard from carbon dioxide is that it is one of the greenhouse gases that is causing global warming.
What type of gases kill flames?
Carbon Dioxide, or C02
The emission of carbon dioxide would determine the survival of life on the earth?
No, it will not ensure that but kill us. It is because the oxygen creating trees take up carbon dioxide to make oxygen.
Which beaker will carbon dioxide be in if a beaker has growing peas in it or a beaker that has boiled peas in it?
Carbon dioxide will be found in the beaker with growing peas, as plants undergo photosynthesis and release oxygen as a byproduct. Boiling the peas will kill them, halting the process of photosynthesis and the release of carbon dioxide.
What can carbon dioxide poising do?
Carbon dioxide is not poisonous but since it isn't oxygen it will kill you in large quantities. carbon monoxide however is actually poisenous, basically it reacts with your body and reduces the amount of oxygen your blood can deliver.
What is the effect of increasing carbon dioxide in the air?
kiira says it may get to the stage where it will kill us:)
What can air NOT do?
air can't kill you unless you breathe it in from a cigarette lots or breathe in carbon dioxide.
Why descover carbon dioxide?
carbon dioxide of coarse is able to kill a person so scientists are finding gases liquids and solids that are able to kill people and in doing so help prevent it like led if it got inside you you could die but it depends on the dose of the led that entered your body. and carbon dioxide is good too it helps vegetation grow. so it is bad and good but i still wont go sticking your head in a all rich carbon dioxide environment.
How much carbon dioxide does it take to kill somebody?
Carbon dioxide is toxic at levels of 5% and fatal at around 10%. If you may be contemplating suicide please call 1-800-273-8255.
Since carbon dioxide is heavier than oxygen- why doesn't carbon dioxide form a layer in atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide blankets are used in pits to kill cattle without "violence". CO2 diffuses into the atmosphere. Ozone is found where it is made, and decays into oxygen before it can diffuse very far.
