Sentences with phrase «produces oxygen compounds»

Not exact matches

Ocean water permeating the porous rock of the core could be exposed to ionizing radiation and undergo radiolysis, producing molecular hydrogen and reactive oxygen compounds.

NOx gases are produced in oxygen - poor soils when microbes break apart nitrogen compounds in the fertilizer, a process called denitrification.

Using spectral readings from telescopes at the Keck Observatory in Hawaii, Hand has found high levels of oxidative chemicals such as sulfate, oxygen, sulfur dioxide and hydrogen peroxide on Europa's surface, which are produced as ionizing radiation from Jupiter scours it, splitting apart water molecules and sulfur compounds in the uppermost layers of its ice.

Cortright and chemical engineer James Dumesic discovered in their university lab back in 2001 that by starting with water and various carbohydrates from plants — basically, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen compounds — and using catalysts, heat and pressure, they could start creating CO2 and hydrogen and then use that hydrogen to eliminate the oxygen as water (the process produces more water than it consumes).

Two of chemistry's most commonplace elements, hydrogen and oxygen, have been combined to produce an unexpected new compound, hydrogen trioxide.

Substrate molecules, such as organic compounds containing double bonds, can extract oxygen atoms from this bank to produce oxidized products.

Although these trees produce oxygen, they also release compounds that can react in the air to create lung - damaging ozone.

Metal oxides — compounds produced when metals combine with oxygen — serve a variety of important purposes.

The enzyme converts heme, a cellular compound that produces damaging oxygen radicals, to less harmful compounds, some of which neutralize oxygen radicals.

Under the hypoxic conditions, the body might produce more reactive oxygen species (ROS), harmful compounds that can damage DNA.

A film of high - surface - area nickel foam coated with graphene and a compound of iron, manganese and phosphorus serve as a water - splitting catalyst that can produce hydrogen and oxygen simultaneously.

However, we know that bacteria that produce bad breath compounds thrive in mouth crevices where oxygen can't reach.

Methane is a carbon compound produced during anaerobic fermentation, a process which occurs only in the absence of oxygen.

The second cause of bad gas is oxidation — some of the hydrocarbons in the fuel react with oxygen to produce new compounds, almost all of them worse than what you started with.

This gas is produced when carbon compounds, such as gasoline are not fully burned, as there is not enough oxygen present to form carbon dioxide.

Carbon dioxide is produced when any form of carbon or almost any carbon compound is burned in an excess of oxygen.

Our cells use these carbon compounds and oxygen to produce electricity, heat, water, and carbon dioxide.

when an organic compound methane reacts with oxygen they produces carbon dia oxyide and the hydrogen gas which is harmful for humman biengs carbon dia oxyide is used in our drinks like pepsi and it is soulible in water at heavey pressure and hydrogen is used as fuel and the equatoin becomes ch4 + h2 ---- > co2 +2 h2
