Why dry ice is stored under high pressure?

solid carbon dioxide is stored undeer high pressure. this is because on decresing the preasure the temp will increase and solid carbon dioxide will be directly changed into CO2 in gaseous state.


What is dry ice what will happen when the pressure is released on dry ice?

solid carbon dioxide (CO2) is stored under high pressure. Solid CO2 gets converted directly to gaseous state on decrease of pressure to 1 atmosphere without coming into liquid state. This is the reason that solid carbon dioxide is also known as dry ice


What is a condition of solid materials which may deform under high temperatures and pressure called?

What keeps the inner core in a solid state?

high pressure


Are veins under high pressure?

No, veins are not under high pressure. High-pressure vessels are the arteries.


Would a solution under high pressure have more gas in it than a solution under low pressure?

A sol'n under HIGH pressure has more gas in it. The high pressure is working against the much smaller vapor pressure of the liquid. If they equal then the liquid is at it's boiling point. Additionally applying pressure to a solution keeps dissolved gasses inside the solution such as Oxygen or Carbon Dioxide (Think of a Cola can. It is stored under pressure and the fizz stays in the liquid. Then you open the can and release the high pressure and the carbon dioxide starts to bubble out of the solution. It was not doing this before you opened the can and lowered the overall pressure)


Which solution will have more gas dissolved in it a solution under high pressure or under low pressure?

A solution under a high pressure


Physical change from solid to liquid?

This is known as melting. Some liquids can solidify under very high pressures, so releasing the pressure will cause the solid to melt.


Which solution will have more gas dissolved in it a solution under high-pressure or under low pressure?

A solution under a high pressure


What is the colour of solid Xenon?

Under high pressure - around 150 gigaPascals - xenon turns metallic. In this phase it has a blue colour.


Why is the inner core solid metal?

As far as we can tell, the inner core of our planet is made of a mixture of nickel and iron. The high temperature, under normal pressure, would melt nickel and iron, however, the core is under enormous pressure because of the weight of the mantle and crust, which are on top of it, and pressure tends to push substances in the direction of a more solid phase.
