  2. Carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide

    The symmetry of a carbon dioxide molecule is linear and centrosymmetric at its equilibrium geometry. The length of the carbon–oxygen bond in carbon dioxide is 116.3 pm, noticeably shorter than the roughly 140 pm length of a typical single C–O bond, and shorter than most other C–O multiply bonded functional groups such as carbonyls.

  4. Oxocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxocarbon

    In chemistry, an oxocarbon or oxide of carbon is a chemical compound consisting only of carbon and oxygen. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The simplest and most common oxocarbons are carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide ( CO 2 ).

    Models of the packing of molecules in two molecular solids, carbon dioxide or Dry ice (a), [1] and caffeine (c). [2] The gray, red, and purple balls represent carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen, respectively. Images of carbon dioxide (b) and caffeine (d) in the solid state at room temperature and atmosphere.

  6. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    The bond angles are set at 180°. For example, carbon dioxide and nitric oxide have a linear molecular shape. Trigonal planar: Molecules with the trigonal planar shape are somewhat triangular and in one plane (flat). Consequently, the bond angles are set at 120°. For example, boron trifluoride.

  7. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    Carbon dioxide, CO 2, is a linear molecule with a total of sixteen bonding electrons in its valence shell. Carbon is the central atom of the molecule and a principal axis, the z-axis, is visualized as a single axis that goes through the center of carbon and the two oxygens atoms.

  8. Dry ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_ice

    Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (CO 2), a molecule consisting of a single carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. Dry ice is colorless, odorless, and non-flammable, and can lower the pH of a solution when dissolved in water , forming carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3 ).

  9. Carbon suboxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_suboxide

    Carbon suboxide, or tricarbon dioxide, is an organic, oxygen-containing chemical compound with formula C 3 O 2 and structure O=C=C=C=O. Its four cumulative double bonds make it a cumulene . It is one of the stable members of the series of linear oxocarbons O=C n =O , which also includes carbon dioxide ( CO 2 ) and pentacarbon dioxide ( C 5 O 2 ).
