On decreasing pressure on solid carbon dioxide it directly changes to carbon dioxide.In this case how the pressure is reduced

Open in App

Solution

Solid carbondioxide is stored under high pressure. Then only carbondioxide exist at solid state. On decreasing the pressure, that is when you open the vessel of solid carbondioxide to atmospheric pressure the pressure gets reduced and it started converting to gas.
