What do you have to do to make carbon dioxide to solid?

Answer 1

Temperature at about or below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. This is because 32 degrees Fahrenheit is ideal for forcing together carbon dioxide molecules with a gas called trehythition. This gas gives the carbon dioxide glue for them to bond. Once carbon dioxide becomes a solid, it is nicknamed dry ice.

Answer 2

To make carbon dioxide solid, you need to expose it to temperatures below -78.5°C (-109.3°F) and high pressures (at least 5.1 atmospheres). This process is known as carbon dioxide sublimation, where the gas turns directly into a solid without passing through the liquid phase.

Answer 3

Strangely, Carbon Dioxide can exist as a solid in 2 forms. It can be a glass-like but amorphous solid, called Carbonia, or in its' more usual form as Dry Ice.

Carbonia is not something you can make at home! It is formed by super-cooling heated carbon dioxide at very extreme pressure (about 400 000 times the earths atmosphere) in a diamond anvil. It is very unstable, however, and reverts instanly to gas when pressure is released.

Dry Ice is formed through a process known as Deposition. It is produced by cooling Carbon Dioxide to around minus 80 degrees Centigrade at slightly elevated pressures.

Answer 4

we could only turn carbon dioxide which is the gaseous state if we would apply pressure and decrease its temperature

Answer 5

Carbon dioxide solidifies while under pressure and at low temperatures, turning solid at −109°F (178.5°C). Solidified carbon dioxide is called a dry ice.

Answer 6

Yes. We generally call this dry ice.

Answer 7

you freeze it
