A heavy colorless gas CO₂ that does not support combustion, that dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, that is formed especially by the action of acids on carbonates, by the fermentation of liquors, and by the combustion and decomposition of organic substances (as in animal respiration, in the decay of animal and vegetable matter, and in the explosion of firedamp in mines) that is absorbed from the air by plants in the first step in photosynthesis, and that is used in the gaseous and liquefied forms chiefly in the carbonation of beverages, in fire fighting, in therapeutical work, in mining operations, in the chemical industry, and as a source of power (as in spray painting and inflating life rafts) and in the solidified form as dry ice ...  6, record 1, English, - carbon%20dioxide

Carbon dioxide is naturally present in air to the extent of 0.03 percent by volume and 0.05 percent by weight, in rainwater at 2 to 6 ppm, and in most water supplies from zero to 50 ppm. Carbon dioxide is the gas in carbonated beverages. Dissolved in water, it can form carbonic acid H₂CO₃.  7, record 1, English, - carbon%20dioxide

Des composés oxygénés du carbone, nous retiendrons le dioxyde de carbone ou «gaz carbonique» [...] Le dioxyde de carbone CO₂ est assez abondant dans la nature (atmosphère, poches de gaz souterraines, eaux minérales gazeuses), où il joue un rôle capital pour les êtres vivants, par le mécanisme de l'assimilation chlorophyllienne. C'est aussi un sous-produit de nombreuses industries (fermentation alcoolique des sucres, fabrication de la chaux vive, des ciments, synthèse de l'ammoniac, etc.).  8, record 1, French, - dioxyde%20de%20carbone
