Carbon dioxide gas is produced from the combustion of coal or
hydrocarbons or by fermentation of liquids and the breathing of humans and
animals.
Carbon dioxide is at a low concentration in the atmosphere and acts as a
greenhouse gas. Carbon dioxide is assimilated by plants and used to produce
oxygen.
Carbon dioxide gas is colorless and heavier than air and has a slightly
irritating odor.
Freezing point is -109.3oF (-78.5oC) where it forms carbon dioxide snow or dry ice.
