Carbon Dioxide, under pressure and cooled, becomes 'Dry Ice'. It takes on the appearance of a block of frozen water (ice).

What happens when Carbon dioxide gas is compressed at room temperature and the pressure is suddenly released?
When carbon dioxide gas is compressed at room temperature and the pressure is suddenly released, it undergoes a process called adiabatic expansion. This leads to a rapid decrease in pressure and a decrease in temperature as the gas expands. Sometimes, this sudden decrease in temperature can cause the gas to condense into a solid or a white mist.
Can crystallines liquefy under pressure?
Crystallines can liquefy under pressure if it is sufficiently high. Generally the opposite happens where they become more dense and compressed as the pressure increases.
What happens to air when it sink?
When a parcel of air is forced downward, atmospheric pressure increases, causing the air to become compressed and therefore the temperature is also raised.
What happens to the temperature and pressure as you get closer the the earth's core?
Temperature and pressure increase massively from the Earth's surface to the centre of the Earth. At the inner core, the pressure is so great that iron is solid, even at such high temperatures.
When carbon dioxide levels increase in the atmosphere what happens to global temperatures?
When greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere then the temperature rises. Greenhouse gases capture heat rising from the surface of the earth and prevent it escaping to space.
What happens when carbon dioxide is compressed to atmospheric pressure?
Nothing. It's still a gas. The fizz when you open a can is carbon dioxide.Nothing happens. It has to be compressed to 5.13 atmospheres before it turns solid at -56.4°C.
What happens to temperatures when carbon dioxide levels decrease?
You become a human popsicle
What happens when a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is applied on pure water?
It is compressed and occupies a smaller volume.
What happens for carbonate dioxide to sublimate at a given pressure?
Energy must transfer to the carbon dioxide from its surroundings
What happens to pressure at different temperatures?
Pressure (such as air in a balloon) can increase with higher temps and decrease with lower temps.
What happens to copper carbonate and sodium carbonate when heated?
They both release carbon dioxide,but at different temperatures

In a deep dive a whale is appreciably compressed by the pressure of the surrounding water What happens to the whales density?
Its density increases.
What happens when air is compressed?
When air particles are compressed, the density is increased. There is more pressure within a region or within a container. There are more molecules in a given volume, and this can cause the air to heat up. - The pressure of the air increases, as does its temperature, as its volume decreases.
What happens when air is compressed from 1cubic meter of air to 0.5 cubic meter?
The quotient of (its absolute temperature)/(its pressure) decreases by half.
In a deep dive a whale is appreciably compressed by the pressure of the surrounding water What happens to the whale's density?
The density increases..
