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.
Here is a fun science fair project to do to test out Soda Lime: Test different air samples for Carbon Dioxide and compare where the air is most "polluted." Use Soda Lime (Sodium Calcium Hydroxide) to test the amount of CO2 present in the air sample. (It will absorb the CO2--weigh the difference in weight before & after).
A typical all-in-one soda maker for home use found in supermarkets. A refillable carbon dioxide canister and a high-pressure bottle are often included. Soda makers or soda carbonators are appliances that carbonate water with multiple-use carbon dioxide canisters. A variety of systems are produced by manufacturers and hobbyists.
A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.
1) Clear soda is better for you than dark soda - FALSE In reality, one of the only differences between clear and dark soft drinks is that the clear ones don't usually contain caffeine, but the ...
Two health non-profits have filed a lawsuit, arguing Coca-Cola has deliberately misled the American public on the health risks of its sugary products.
Carbon dioxide is also used to create a hypoxic environment for carbonic maceration, the process used to produce Beaujolais wine. Carbon dioxide is sometimes used to top up wine bottles or other storage vessels such as barrels to prevent oxidation, though it has the problem that it can dissolve into the wine, making a previously still wine ...
Bubbles of carbon dioxide float to the surface of a carbonated soft drink. Carbonation moving through a drink, disturbing the ice in a glass. Carbonated drinks or fizzy drinks are beverages that consist mainly of carbonated water. The dissolution of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in a liquid, gives rise to effervescence or fizz.
