Carbon Dioxide, under pressure and cooled, becomes 'Dry Ice'. It takes on the appearance of a block of frozen water (ice).

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 when a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is applied on pure water?

It is compressed and occupies a smaller volume.


What happens to temperatures when carbon dioxide levels decrease?

What happens to the pressure of fluid that is compressed in a confined space?

When a fluid is compressed in a confined space, the pressure of the fluid increases. This occurs because the molecules of the fluid are being pushed closer together, leading to a higher density and thus an increase in pressure.


What happens to air when it is adiabatically compressed?

When air is adiabatically compressed, its pressure and temperature increase while its volume decreases. This occurs without any heat exchange with the surroundings.


What happens when a fluid is compressed?

When a fluid is compressed, the volume of the fluid decreases while the pressure and temperature increase. This leads to an increase in the density of the fluid.


Can crystallines liquefy under pressure?

Crystallines can liquefy under pressure if it is sufficiently high. Generally the opposite happens where they become more dense and compressed as the pressure increases.


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 to pressure at different temperatures?

Pressure (such as air in a balloon) can increase with higher temps and decrease with lower temps.


In a deep dive a whale is appreciably compressed by the pressure of the surrounding water What happens to the whales density?

Its density increases.


What happens to copper carbonate and sodium carbonate when heated?

They both release carbon dioxide,but at different temperatures


What happens when air is compressed?

When air particles are compressed, the density is increased. There is more pressure within a region or within a container. There are more molecules in a given volume, and this can cause the air to heat up. - The pressure of the air increases, as does its temperature, as its volume decreases.
