  2. Carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide

    A candy called Pop Rocks is pressurized with carbon dioxide gas [124] at about 4,000 kPa (40 bar; 580 psi). When placed in the mouth, it dissolves (just like other hard candy) and releases the gas bubbles with an audible pop. Leavening agents cause dough to rise by producing carbon dioxide. [125]

  3. List of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gases

    This list is sorted by boiling point of gases in ascending order, but can be sorted on different values. "sub" and "triple" refer to the sublimation point and the triple point, which are given in the case of a substance that sublimes at 1 atm; "dec" refers to decomposition. "~" means approximately.

    Structure and properties Index of refraction, n D: 1.000449 at 589.3 nm and 0 °C [1]: Dielectric constant, ε r: 1.60 ε 0 at 0 °C, 50 atm : Average energy per C=O bond : 804.4 kJ/mol at 298 K (25 °C) [2]

  5. Gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas

    Drifting smoke particles indicate the movement of the surrounding gas.. Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter.The others are solid, liquid, and plasma. [1] A pure gas may be made up of individual atoms (e.g. a noble gas like neon), elemental molecules made from one type of atom (e.g. oxygen), or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms (e.g. carbon dioxide).

  6. Dry ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_ice

    At least one person has been killed by carbon dioxide gas subliming off dry ice in coolers placed in a car. [54] In 2020, three people were killed at a party in Moscow after 25 kg of dry ice was dumped in a pool; carbon dioxide is heavier than air, and so can linger near the ground, just above water level. [55]

  7. Carbon trioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_trioxide

    with a lifetime much shorter than 1 minute. [3] Carbon trioxide can be made by blowing ozone at dry ice (solid CO 2), and it has also been detected in reactions between carbon monoxide (CO) and molecular oxygen (O 2). Along with the ground state C 2v isomer, [4] the first spectroscopic detection of the D 3h isomer was in electron-irradiated ...

    Teens are getting high by inhaling canisters of nitrous oxide — specifically one called Galaxy Gas. The legitimate use of the gas, which is manufactured by a culinary supply company, is to ...

  9. Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_in_Earth's...

    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%).
