  1. Carbon monoxide (CO), also called carbonous oxide, is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas which is slightly lighter than air.Carbon monoxide is produced from the partial oxidation of carbon-containing compounds; it forms when there is not enough oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2), such as when operating a stove or an internal combustion engine in an enclosed space.


  2. the mon in monoxide means 'one' so the compound is stated as CO, a toxic gas from car tailpipes and malfunctions in gas heaters
