Carbon dioxide is the lasing medium in a carbon-dioxide laser, which is one of the earliest type of lasers. Carbon dioxide can be used as a means of controlling the pH of swimming pools, [139] by continuously adding gas to the water, thus keeping the pH from rising. Among the advantages of this is the avoidance of handling (more hazardous) acids.

Comparison of phase diagrams of carbon dioxide (red) and water (blue) as a log-lin chart with phase transitions points at 1 atmosphere pressure. Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (CO 2), a molecule consisting of a single carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms.
Carbon dioxide pressure-temperature phase diagram This video shows the property of carbon dioxide to go into a supercritical state with increasing temperature. Supercritical carbon dioxide (s CO 2) is a fluid state of carbon dioxide where it is held at or above its critical temperature and critical pressure.
“High pressure drives oxygen into the bloodstream, much like pressurizing a can of soda with CO2 carbonates the beverage,” explains Sean Alemi, MD, a plastic surgeon on Long Island. As of July ...
Carbon dioxide is often mentioned in the context of its increased influence as a greenhouse gas since the pre-industrial (1750) era. In 2013, the increase in CO 2 was estimated to be responsible for 1.82 W m −2 of the 2.63 W m −2 change in radiative forcing on Earth (about 70%). [48]
Carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid when dissolved in water, so ocean acidification is a significant consequence of elevated carbon dioxide levels, and limits the rate at which it can be absorbed into the ocean (the solubility pump).
