What happens to the particles in carbon dioxide gas when compressed in a fire extinguisher?
The gas becomes a liquid inside the extinguisher. When the extinguisher is operated, the liquid changes back to a gas when released.
What happens when there is carbon dioxide around a fire?
the fire should exstinguish a carbon dioxide puts out flames as it is a common fire extinguisher
What happens for compressed water?
particles expand hence takes up more space(flattening)
What happens if you put hydrogen in a fire extinguisher?
Putting hydrogen into a fire extinguisher would create a very dangerous device. Compressed hydrogen gas burns very rapidly when mixed with oxygen and ignited. This could cause an explosion resulting in damage and injury.
What happens when carbon dioxide is compressed to atmospheric pressure?
When carbon dioxide is compressed to atmospheric pressure, it becomes a supercritical fluid with properties of both gases and liquids. It is often used in industrial processes like extraction and as a solvent due to its unique properties.
What happens to air particles when the volume of air is compressed?
When the volume of air is compressed, the air particles are pushed closer together, leading to an increase in pressure. This compression also increases the temperature of the air since the particles have less space to move around, causing them to collide more frequently and with greater force.
What happens when an object is compressed?
When an object is compressed, its particles are pushed closer together, causing the object to decrease in volume but increase in density. The compression can lead to an increase in pressure and temperature within the object.
What happens to the particles of air when you blow into a balloon?
When you blow into a balloon, the particles of air you exhale are compressed and forced into the balloon. This increases the air pressure inside the balloon, causing it to expand and inflate.
What happens to air when it is compressed or allow to expand?
It cools, and when it is compressed, it warms
What happens when Carbon dioxide gas is compressed at room temperature and the pressure is suddenly released?
When the pressure is released, some of the liquid will transition into a gas, cooling some of the liquid into dry ice frost or snow, which can be collected and pressed into pellets or blocks. This is similar to what happens when you get frost on the nozzle of a CO2 fire extinguisher. The freezing point of carbon dioxide is -109.3°F or -78.5° C, so dry ice won't stay solid for long at room temperature.
What happens when you run over a fire extinguisher with a bus?
Big boom
What happens inside an extinguisher when the handle is pressed?
Combustion occur and emission
