    3), and carbon dioxide (CO 2) in order to maintain pH in the blood and duodenum, among other tissues, to support proper metabolic function. [1] Catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase, carbon dioxide (CO 2) reacts with water (H 2 O) to form carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3), which in turn rapidly dissociates to form a bicarbonate ion (HCO −

  3. Boudouard reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boudouard_reaction

    It is the disproportionation of carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide and graphite or its reverse: [1] 2CO ⇌ CO 2 + C Boudouard-Equilibrium at 1 bar calculated with 2 different methods Standard enthalpy of the Boudouard reaction at various temperatures. The Boudouard reaction to form carbon dioxide and carbon is exothermic at all

  4. Liquid carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_carbon_dioxide

    Liquid carbon dioxide is a type of liquid which is formed from highly compressed and cooled gaseous carbon dioxide. It does not form under atmospheric conditions. It only exists when the pressure is above 5.1 atm and the temperature is under 31.1 °C (88.0 °F) (temperature of critical point) and above −56.6 °C (−69.9 °F) (temperature of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soda_lime

    Soda lime canister used in anaesthetic machines to act as a carbon dioxide scrubber. Soda lime, a mixture of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and calcium oxide (CaO), is used in granular form within recirculating breathing environments like general anesthesia and its breathing circuit, submarines, rebreathers, and hyperbaric chambers and underwater habitats.

  6. Sabatier reaction - Wikipedia

    Paul Sabatier (1854-1941) winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912 and discoverer of the reaction in 1897. The Sabatier reaction or Sabatier process produces methane and water from a reaction of hydrogen with carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures (optimally 300–400 °C) and pressures (perhaps 3 MPa [1]) in the presence of a nickel catalyst.

  7. Bicarbonate indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_indicator

    If the carbon dioxide content is lower than 0.04%, it changes from red to magenta and, in relatively very low carbon dioxide concentrations, to purple. [1] Carbon dioxide, even in the concentrations found in exhaled air, will dissolve in the indicator to form carbonic acid , a weak acid , which will lower the pH and give the characteristic ...

  9. Carbogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbogen

    Carbogen, also called Meduna's Mixture after its inventor Ladislas Meduna, is a mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen gas. Meduna's original formula was 30% CO 2 and 70% oxygen, but the term carbogen can refer to any mixture of these two gases, from 1.5% [ 1 ] to 50% [ 2 ] CO 2 .
