Most cold drinks and other beverages contain a certain amount of carbon dioxide gas dissolved in them. When this gas comes in contact with water, it reacts chemically to produce aqueous carbonic acid, responsible for the acidic flavor and sweet sensation in your mouth. Without it, most soft d...

Kids: Hi, my name is George. I'm five years old. My name's Remy and I'm five years old and my question is, Why is the sea salty? Why is the ocean salty? Nij: I use salt when I cook. Maybe there's a big chef somewhere sprinkling salt in the water when we're all not loo...
How does the pollutant sulfur dioxide cause harm to humans, other living beings, and/or the environment? Explain the impact that using hydropower has on reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Why is carbon dioxide a good fire extinguishing agent?
Why does CrO3 in acidic water oxidize? Do you expect acetaminophen to be soluble in water? Why or why not? Explain why ammonia is likely to be more soluble in water than in trichloromethane. explain why solid silver iodine, is more soluble in basic solution than in pure water?
There’s growing evidence that preserving precious areas not only stops overfishing, it can lessen the impacts of climate change.
What is included in a basic metabolic panel?A BMP tests the levels of glucose, calcium, BUN, creatinine, sodium, potassium, chloride, and carbon dioxide in your blood. Do you need to fast for a basic metabolic panel?Usually, your doctor will ask you to fast for 8 hours before your bloo...
where it accumulates in cooler water and is stored for long periods of time. The ocean’s carbon sink is expected to continue working this way for the next half a century. But the more carbon they absorb, the more acidic the oceans become, which poses threats to marine life and ecosystems...
While the global goal is to reduce all greenhouse gases, not all gasses have the same impact on the environment. Carbon dioxide is the main driver of climate change, and the degree by which the global temperatures rise is largely dependent on how much carbon we’re able to stop emitting ...
Now increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are causing ocean waters to warm and making them more acidic. Warm water causes bleaching episodes in which coral polyps expel the microscopic algae that live inside their tissues and nourish them. Algae provide corals’ color, so th...
