- 15 °C under 56 atm?

उत्तर १
It can be concluded from the P-T phase diagram of CO2 that:
- CO2 is gaseous at –70°C, under 1 atm pressure
- CO2 is solid at –60°C, under 10 atm pressure
- CO2 is liquid at 15°C, under 56 atm pressure
उत्तर २
- The point (- 70 °C, 1.0 atm) lies in the vapour region. Hence, CO2 is vapour at this point.
- The point (- 60 °C, 10 atm) lies in the solid region. Hence, CO2 is solid at this point.
- The point (15 °C, 56 atm) lies in the liquid region. Hence, CO2 is liquid at this point

A ‘thermacole’ icebox is a cheap and efficient method for storing small quantities of cooked food in summer in particular. A cubical icebox of side 30 cm has a thickness of 5.0 cm. If 4.0 kg of ice is put in the box, estimate the amount of ice remaining after 6 h. The outside temperature is 45 °C, and coefficient of thermal conductivity of thermacole is 0.01 J s–1 m–1 K–1. [Heat of fusion of water = 335 × 103 J kg–1]

During summers in India, one of the common practice to keep cool is to make ice balls of crushed ice, dip it in flavoured sugar syrup and sip it. For this a stick is inserted into crushed ice and is squeezed in the palm to make it into the ball. Equivalently in winter, in those areas where it snows, people make snow balls and throw around. Explain the formation of ball out of crushed ice or snow in the light of P–T diagram of water.
