Summary

The carbon dioxide gas should be collected by the upward displacement of air. This is a note gives an about information about carbon dioxide, its molecular formula, structure, preparation, properties and uses.

Things to Remember

  • When calcium carbonate (marble or limestone) is treated with dilute hydrochloric acid, carbon dioxide is produced. CaCO3 + 2HCl→ CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
  • The carbon dioxide gas should be collected by the upward displacement of air.
  • Carbon Dioxide is used to manufacture of soda water, coca cola and other soft drinks.
  • Carbon Dioxide is also used as a refrigerant for preserving food or cooling agent in the refrigerator.
