What affects how fast a piece of dry ice sublimates?
it can sublimate faster in hot water
What substances sublimate?
dry ice
Why does Dry ice sublimate faster in different liquids ie fast in vinegar but slow in syrup or oil?
this is because of the different densities we get from the two solutions. syrup is more thicker than vinigar and even more than oil
Can dry ice melt in vineger?
No, but it will evaporate (or, more properly) sublimate.
Why does dry ice sublimate so fast in water?
Dry ice sublimates quickly in water because water is both relatively dense and has a high specific heat, which means that a relatively small volume of it can transfer a larger amount of heat.
Does dry ice sublime?
Yes
What is a sentence for sublimation?
Here is an example sentence with the word "sublimate":Dry ice will sublimate into carbon dioxide when it is kept at room temperature.
How does the temperature of water affect the sublimation of dry ice?
cold water makes dry ice closer to its freezing point. so hot water makes dry ice sublimate more
Where is the thermal energy coming from causing dry ice to sublimate?
It's the same principle as if a liquid is evaporating, for example. It requires thermal energy to evaporate the liquid, or to sublimate a solid; therefore, this process will cool down (in this example) the dry ice, and the surrounding air.
What are some objects that sublimate?
Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase without passing through an intermediate liquid phase. Things that sublimate are ice, iodine, and carbon dioxide.
When does dry ice melt?
Dry ice only melts when it is under pressure of 5.1 atmospheres.
How to reduce dry ice loss?
To reduce dry ice loss, make sure to pack dry ice as close to each other as possible. Fill any empty space with new bubble packs, newspaper or Styrofoam peanuts since the space will cause the dry ice to sublimate faster.
