The Earth's oceans contain a large amount of CO2 in the form of bicarbonate and carbonate ions â much more than the amount in the atmosphere. The bicarbonate is produced in reactions between rock, water, and carbon dioxide.
Carbon is found in combination in hydrocarbons (methane gas, oil, and coal), and carbonates (limestone and dolomite). OCCURRENCE: Carbon ranks nineteenth in the order of abundance of the elements comprising about 0.2% of the earth's outer crust. In the earth's atmosphere, carbon is present as carbon dioxide.Though it is widely distributed in nature mainly in the combined form, only minor amounts are found in the free or elemental state. It is present as main constituent of all animal and vegetable matter.arbon is found in combination in hydrocarbons (methane gas, oil, and coal), and carbonates (limestone and dolomite).
