On Snake-Poison: its Action and its Antidote To say nothing of our opium and alcohol consumers, our teetotallers are delighted with the briskness and sparkle of spring-water, although these qualities indicate the presence of carbonic acid or fixed air. Harper's New Monthly Magazine, February, 1852 This, however, is obviously a question of conditions: this group of oxidants also oxidize to oxycellulose, and under more severe conditions to acid products, e.g. oxalic and carbonic acids. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 5, Slice 5 "Cat" to "Celt" The proportion of carbonic acid is somewhat greater than in the air of the streets overhead, that of ammoniacal azote is much more considerable, and that of bacteria only half as great. Paris From the Earliest Period to the Present Day; Volume 2 This last change is probably hastened by the carbonic acid of the atmosphere uniting with the soda. Principles of Geology or, The Modern Changes of the Earth and its Inhabitants Considered as Illustrative of Geology Meanwhile, the oxygen in the lungs is gradually diminishing, the quantity of carbonic acid is increasing, and at length the air in the lungs becomes too impure to effect an exchange with the blood.

Earth and Sky Every Child Should Know Easy studies of the earth and the stars for any time and place But air is a composite agent, and when means were contrived of separating its components, the effects of oxygen alone and of carbonic acid alone were experimentally determined. Logic, Inductive and Deductive It is the same whether the gas ionized is hydrogen, air or carbonic acid, and thus is presumably independent of the nature of the gas. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 8 "Conduction, Electric" The water is a saturated solution of carbonic acid gas, which escapes from it in such quantities in some parts of its surface, that it has the appearance of being actually in ebullition. Principles of Geology or, The Modern Changes of the Earth and its Inhabitants Considered as Illustrative of Geology If you pass the same carbonic acid over the very quicklime thus obtained, you will obtain carbonate of lime again; but it will not be calc-spar, or anything like it. The Voice of Science in Nineteenth-Century Literature Representative Prose and Verse When these burn or decay, the carbon remains as charcoal or escapes to the air in union with oxygen as the well known carbonic acid gas. Earth and Sky Every Child Should Know Easy studies of the earth and the stars for any time and place The air was continually returned and circulated until it was too much contaminated with carbonic acid to be further used, a condition which limited the use of the apparatus to a very short period.

Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons Give the theory for the formation of carbonic acid and watery vapor thrown out of the system. A Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene (Revised Edition) What condition of the soil is necessary for the reception of the largest quantity of carbonic acid? The Elements of Agriculture A Book for Young Farmers, with Questions Prepared for the Use of Schools One part of this air, which serves to keep up the combustion of the oil, forms carbonic acid gas and water, by oxygenating its elements. Elements of Chemistry, In a New Systematic Order, Containing all the Modern Discoveries Under such conditions the crew would be unable to perform the strenuous maneuver demanded of it, and the carbonic acid must be withdrawn and oxygen admitted. The Journal of Submarine Commander von Forstner Water, ammonia, and carbonic acid cannot, it is admitted, combine to form protoplasm, unless a principle of life preside over the operation. Old-Fashioned Ethics and Common-Sense Metaphysics With Some of Their Applications At the same time, the carbonic acid and water leave the blood, and pass through the coats of the blood-vessels and air-cells, and mix with the air in the cells. A Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene (Revised Edition) Vegetable manures supply carbonic acid, and inorganic matter to plants. The Elements of Agriculture A Book for Young Farmers, with Questions Prepared for the Use of Schools Oxygen gas, which forms 28/100 of atmospheric air, is changed into carbonic acid gas during combustion with charcoal, whilst the azotic gas of the air is not altered at all.

Essays: Scientific, Political, & Speculative, Vol. I The presence of carbonic acid and watery vapor in the expired air, can be proved by the following experiments: 227 1st. A Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene (Revised Edition) Thus, while by the natural operation of breathing, they make carbonic acid for the uses of the vegetable world, plants, in taking up carbon, throw off oxygen to keep up the life of animals. The Elements of Agriculture A Book for Young Farmers, with Questions Prepared for the Use of Schools All these precautions are solely intended for collecting and determining the quantity of water formed during the experiment; the carbonic acid and azotic gas remains to be ascertained. Elements of Chemistry, In a New Systematic Order, Containing all the Modern Discoveries Wright has further ascertained in his excellent researches, that the clotting time can be influenced by drugs: calcium chloride, carbonic acid raise, citric acid, alcohol and increased respiration diminish the clotting power of the blood. Histology of the Blood Normal and Pathological Such is the proportion in which air contains carbonic acid gas, the main source of strength for many thousands of trees, shrubs, and other plants. Little Masterpieces of Science: The Naturalist as Interpreter and Seer This is owing to the carbonic acid of the breath uniting with the lime, forming the carbonate of lime. 2d.

Elements of Chemistry, In a New Systematic Order, Containing all the Modern Discoveries First, there must be alcoholic fermentation by which the sugar in the grape is changed into alcohol with the escape of carbonic acid gas. Manual of American Grape-Growing Otherwise, the atmosphere would be more and more vitiated with carbonic acid and organic vapors, and every one would die as if shut up in an air-tight room. Rural Hygiene How can the presence of carbonic acid in the lungs be proved? A Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene (Revised Edition) Under the influence of daylight, the carbonic acid is decomposed; its oxygen returned to the atmosphere, and its carbon retained in the plant.

Elements of Chemistry, In a New Systematic Order, Containing all the Modern Discoveries Yeast organisms attack the sugar and must, breaking it up into alcohol and carbonic acid gas, the latter passing off as it is formed. Manual of American Grape-Growing The carbonic acid from the crater had not yet had time to unite with the hydrogen of the water; nor the ammonia of the clouds, to form under the action of the light, organized matter. The Voyages and Adventures of Captain Hatteras The amount of carbonic acid is increased. 3d. A Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene (Revised Edition) Still, at the decay of either of these, the carbon which they contain must be again resolved into carbonic acid. The Elements of Agriculture A Book for Young Farmers, with Questions Prepared for the Use of Schools In this process carbonic acid gas is formed, and mixes with the hydrogen gas, but is easily separated by means of water or alkalies, which absorb the carbonic acid, and leave the hydrogen gas pure. Elements of Chemistry, In a New Systematic Order, Containing all the Modern Discoveries The carbonic acid gas generated at this second fermentation is confined in the bottles and absorbed by the wine. Manual of American Grape-Growing Hence the immediate cause of the deposition of lithic acid gravel is generally a destructible acid of very weak powers: even, perhaps, in some instances, the carbonic acid. North American Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. 2, No. 3, July, 1826 Of the twenty-one parts of oxygen in the inspired air, only eighteen parts are expired, while the carbonic acid and watery vapor are increased about four per cent.

The Elements of Agriculture A Book for Young Farmers, with Questions Prepared for the Use of Schools By these experiments, it appears that fixed oils combine with oxygen during combustion, and are thereby converted into water and carbonic acid. Elements of Chemistry, In a New Systematic Order, Containing all the Modern Discoveries When coal and wood are burned, the chief products of the union with oxygen are carbonic acid and water. Harper's Young People, September 14, 1880 An Illustrated Weekly This effervescence, the child should be informed, arises from the escape of a considerable quantity of a particular sort of air, called fixed air, or carbonic acid gas. Practical Education, Volume II What is the effect on the blood when the air is free from vapor and carbonic acid?

The Home Medical Library, Volume II (of VI) The carbonic acid gas of effervescing drinks, evolved in the stomach, permeates its membranes, and rapidly spreads through the system. 3d. A System Of Logic, Ratiocinative And Inductive The carbonic acid which is exhaled from the lungs at about blood heat is hence rarefied, and specifically lighter than the air in the room, which inclines it to ascend. Popular Education For the use of Parents and Teachers, and for Young Persons of Both Sexes While it is true that carbonic acid possesses properties that render it unfit to be breathed, it is, notwithstanding, productive of very agreeable effects, when conveyed into the stomach. A Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene (Revised Edition) The burning of limestone is a very prolific source of carbonic acid. The Elements of Agriculture A Book for Young Farmers, with Questions Prepared for the Use of Schools This is done by subjecting it successively to the action of highly heated air and carbonic acid gas from coal fires. Buchanan's Journal of Man, October 1887 Volume 1, Number 9 But carbonic acid, silica, sulphurous acid, have no hydrogen in their composition; that property can not, therefore, be connoted by the term, unless those substances are no longer to be considered acids.
