Does cyclohexane freeze in dry ice?

Cyclohexane's melting point is about +6 degrees Celsius. Dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) maintains a temperature of -78C in normal conditions. Cyclohexane will thus freeze on dry ice. In fact, a closed container of cyclohexane would freeze on regular, water ice. Regular hexane (linear) has a freezing point around -100C, and will remain a liquid on dry ice, much as ethanol or acetone do.


How can clothes dry without heating them to the boiling point of water?

Clothes can dry without reaching the boiling point of water through a process called evaporation. When clothes are exposed to air, the water molecules on the fabric's surface gain enough energy to escape into the air as vapor, leaving the clothes dry. The rate of evaporation can be increased by factors like air circulation and low humidity.


Is boiling point higher than melting point?

The boiling point is typically higher than the melting point for a substance. The boiling point is the temperature at which a substance transitions from a liquid to a gas, while the melting point is the temperature at which a substance transitions from a solid to a liquid.


Why does dry ice sublimate?

Dry ice sublimates because it transitions directly from a solid state to a gas state without going through a liquid state. This process occurs because the temperature of dry ice is below its sublimation point, causing it to release carbon dioxide gas as it turns into a gas.


Can you put dry ice in your eye and ears?

You can, but it would not be advisable. Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, and the sublimation point (the point at which it turns from a solid into a gas with no liquid phase) is -78 degrees Celsius. So the solid CO2 will be that or colder, and it would cause cold burns if you brought it into contact with your skin. These may cause irreparable damage to your eyes and ears.

Why does dry ice last longer when salt is sprinkled on it?

Sprinkling salt on dry ice can help it last longer by lowering the temperature at which the dry ice sublimates. The salt lowers the freezing point of the surrounding moisture on the dry ice, creating a icy slush layer that insulates the dry ice and slows down the sublimation process.
