What is the volume of gas 1 pound of dry ice will expand to as it sublimates?

Dry ice is CO2. Molar mass CO2 = 44 g/mole. 1 lb is approx. 454 g thus this = 454 g x 1 mol/44 g = 10.3 moles of CO2. At STP, 10.3 moles x 22.4 L/mole = 231 liters.

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.
How fast does dry ice melt?
As a rule of thumb, dry ice sublimates at the rate of 5-10 pounds every 24 hours. Check link below for more information on dry ice and dry ice makers.
Convert 7.76 pounds to oz?
124.16 oz. One pound equals to 16 ounces and one ounce equals 0.06 of a pound. Also this relates only to solid (weight) ounces. There are two different kinds of ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the ounces to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce."
How much co 2 does it take to make one pound of dry ice?
453.6 grams of CO2 make 1 pound dry ice. Farhat Azim
Is Nitrogen found in Dry Air?
Yes, about 78% by volume
What contributes to how fast dry ice will sublimates?
Dry ice is extremly conductive to temperature
Dry ice melts in water?
yes EDIT: No. It sublimates.
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.
Is dry ice deadly?
Potentially, yes it is. Dry ice sublimates to form carbon dioxide gas, which is toxic.
What affects how fast a piece of dry ice sublimates?
it can sublimate faster in hot water
Does dry wood expand?
No wood does not expand when its dry
What temperature does dry ice melt?
Dry ice doesn't melt. It sublimates at -78 0C, or -109 0F. Sublimation is a direct transition from a solid to a gas, skipping the liquid phase.
What happens to dry ice on a hot summer day?
It sublimates, meaning it goes directly from a gas to a solid.
Is sublimation the way a balloon decreases in volume when the temperature is decreased?
No. Sublimation is when a solid changes it's state to a gas or when a gas changes it's state to a solid. Example : Dry ice (solid CO2) sublimates to gaseous CO2.
Dry pints per one pound?
Once again, no conversion is possible, because a dry pintis a unit of volume -- space -- whereas a pound is a unit of weight. A dry pint of wheat will not weigh as much as a dry pint of, say, iron filings.
Why dry ice is known as dry ice?
Solid carbon dioxide has the look and feel of ice (and is even colder). But it does not melt to a liquid, but sublimates to form a gas. So it is always dry.
Is Dry ice solid liquid gas plasma?
It is usually a solid, which sublimates at room temperature to form a gas.
