Solution
Caron dioxide
In the laboratory, CO2 can be prepared by the action of dilute hydrochloric acid on calcium carbonate. The reaction involved is as follows:
`CaCO_3 + 2HCl_(aq) -> CaCl_(2(aq)) + CO_(2(g)) + H_2O_(l)`
CO2 is commercially prepared by heating limestone. The reaction involved is as follows:
Caron monoxide
In the laboratory, CO is prepared by the dehydration of formic acid with conc. H2SO4, at 373 K. The reaction involved is as follows:
CO is commercially prepared by passing steam over hot coke. The reaction involved is as follows:
