[CO2] experiment
« on: September 27, 2014, 04:14:28 PM »
Hey guys, I need a little help to complete an experiment.
I need to calculate the CO2 concentration of a determined quantity of air. I know that if I got a closed system and purge the gas into Ba(OH)2 (aq), it will precipitate. Nevertheless, I have been searching methods to purge gases and have not been successful(english is not my native language). Can somebody explain me how can I do this experimentally?
Thanks!

This reference might help with your experimental design.

Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex
