Why doesn't it say dioxide or monoxide for both? After all, both are oxygens.

Hello, I am asking on behalf of another person: Here's the situation: She tried to remove (possible) mold from the window edge with some vinegar essence. There's no smell and she aired the room, but she won't be home until tomorrow. Could something worse happen or will nothing else happen? Thanks for all the answers…
Assuming I were financially able to manage this until I get my doctorate, would it still be worthwhile? Especially if I wanted to be a researcher at a prestigious institute instead of going straight into business?
Hi, I didn't understand what was meant by the question. It's about transformations in synthesis and we have this list: We should look into how something like this works, but I haven't found anything about it. What do you mean?
Hello there, I have to catch up on an experiment because we're writing a class test on it soon. It's on Hooke's Law. We're supposed to determine whether this law applies to a steel spring. See: Attach hook bodies of known weight to the spring and measure the respective extension. The first clamp always marks…
Simply stated, carbon is 4-binding and oxygen is 2-binding. The carbon needs 4 common electrons to achieve the octet (stainless gas status), the oxygen per atom 2 commonly used electrons. Therefore, the carbon C normally burns with 2 oxygen atoms O to carbon dioxide CO2.
However, in the event of a lack of oxygen, only the gas carbon monoxide CO is produced, which, however, can subsequently burn further to carbon dioxide CO2 (if sufficient oxygen is present). Carbon monoxide is unsaturated, i.e. the carbon still lacks 2 electrons. CO is therefore toxic and binds itself to the hemoglobin of the red blood cells instead of oxygen.
Thank you.
There are just both! Carbon dioxide is normally produced in the combustion of carbon-containing substances. In the case of oxygen deficiency and swelling, carbon monoxide is also produced. This is extremely toxic, like hydrocyanic acid gas, but completely odorless!
Thank you.
