At what sort of pressure?
1 atmosphere, so sea level pressure, per Diána Ürge-Vorsatz
I feel like a ton of C02 at air pressure should be bigger.
I know it’s correct, but it looks like the amount of exhaust produced by a car idling for a few minutes, at a visceral level you just expect a literal tonne of gas to take up more volume.
I assume CO2 is only a portion of the exhaust. Not sure if that’s what you were meaning already?
Edit: No idea of the quality of this source, but:
So what’s coming out of a car exhaust is 13 per cent CO2, 13 per cent water (26 per cent sub-total) and 73 per cent nitrogen gas. The air that you’re breathing right now is 78 per cent nitrogen gas, 21 per cent oxygen, and one percent everything else.
Whatever it was about on Jan 27, 2024 in Vienna in the evening during the Science Ball. Probably about 10°C
If it weighs that much why did they have to strap it down. Huh…… Huh /s
If we jump in there can we have a really really good nap?
People tend to end up dead within seconds of entering any kind of oxygen-free atmosphere. People who follow them in to attempt a rescue without a tank of air generally end up dead as well, creating a whole chain of dead.
Don’t do that.
Suffocation by CO2 is a pretty painful way to go, so I wouldn’t recommend.
Yeah, I’ve taken a breath in a high-CO2 environment a few times. The whole body freaks out instantly. Not fun.
Wait?! Is this what they mean by carbon capture?
Expected it to be bigger, still terrifying
