Carbon Dioxide does not turn into a liquid. It changes state from a gas to a solid or solid to a gas. This is called sublimation. It does not enter the state or liquid which is unusual. This applies when the carbon dioxide is subjected to standard pressure. However, there is a way of manipulating the pressure on the carbon dioxide to give it a liquid state of matter.

The critical temperature for carbon dioxide is 88 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the maximum temperature at which carbon dioxide can be a liquid. Therefore, the temperature must be below 88 degrees Fahrenheit to keep it at a liquid state. The carbon dioxide must be pressurized to at least 5.1 ATM to remain a liquid no matter how cold.
