CO2 gas is used in liferafts primarily because it is non-flammable, non-toxic, and readily available. It effectively displaces oxygen, helping to maintain buoyancy and ensuring the raft remains afloat. Other gases, such as helium or hydrogen, could pose safety risks due to their flammability or instability, making CO2 the safest and most practical choice for this critical application.
No other gas has exactly the same properties as carbon dioxide.
No, a carbon dioxide (CO2) monitor will not detect a gas leak. CO2 monitors are designed to detect elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the air, not other gases like methane or propane which are typically associated with gas leaks. It's important to have a gas detector specifically designed to detect other types of gases in case of a gas leak.
The total amount of O2 and CO2 in the test tube remains constant if no gas is added or removed and if there are no chemical reactions occurring that would alter their concentrations. In a closed system, the sum of the moles of O2 and CO2 will be equal to the initial total amount of gas present. Additionally, any changes in the amounts of O2 and CO2 will be balanced by corresponding changes in each other's concentrations, maintaining the overall gas balance.
Carbon dioxide or CO2.
it depends on what is reacting most commonly it is H2 gas or O2 gas or CO2 gas
A carbon dioxide tank must contain only CO2.But many mixtures of gases containing CO2 may be prepared.
They are gas powered and produce the same CO2 and pollution as any other gas powered unit. They just produce a little bit less of it.
No other gas has exactly the same properties as carbon dioxide.
Any incombustible gas may extinguish a fire CO2, Nitrogen gas, and so on.

By using the ideal gas law, at STP (standard temperature and pressure), 1 mole of any ideal gas occupies 22.4 liters. Therefore, in 4.00 liters of CO2 gas at STP there would be 4.00/22.4 = 0.179 moles of CO2 present.
Cars release CO2 along with an array of other toxins.
I'm assuming you're talking about the absorption of CO2 into water. CO2 free water is used to properly measure the amount of CO2 water can actually absorb. CO2 already in the water will reduce the mass of CO2 transferred from the gas, and while I don't believe that there is a specific point at which CO2 can no longer be absorbed by water, the tendency for CO2 to be absorbed into water with CO2 already in it is reduced.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas rises in the atmosphere.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the primary gas responsible for increasing Earth's temperature through the greenhouse effect. CO2, along with other greenhouse gases, trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change.
