How is the conversion of solid carbon dioxide into carbon dioxide gas considered to be a change of state from solid to gas?
Definition: Solid carbon dioxide is a white solid called dry ice.
Explanation:
1)When a slab of solid carbon dioxide is exposed to air, then the pressure on
it is reduced to normal atmospheric pressure, its temperature rises and it starts getting converted into carbon dioxide gas.
2)Thus, the conversion of solid carbon dioxide into carbon dioxide gas is a change of state from
solid to gas caused by decreasing the pressure and increasing the temperature. 3)We can say that solid carbon dioxide can be stored under high
pressure because on decreasing the pressure, it gets converted directly into carbon dioxide gas.
