R rboghosian1021 Guest Jan 10, 2009 #1 I want to try some scientific project for the fun of it. What are some ways you can make CO2?
Z zee_prime Guest Jan 10, 2009 #2 That's easy. Just burn anything containing carbon, like wood, petrol or a candle, or breathe. If you want reasonably pure CO2, then react baking soda with citric or tartaric acid. Add both to water and catch the bubbles.
