Kruka [31]3 years ago

A bimolecular reaction is always a second-order reaction, but a second-order reaction is not always a bimolecular reaction.

The most important thing to take note of is that molecularity of a reaction is a concept applicable to only elementary reactions, meaning non-complex. In a way, elementary reactions are basic and achieved in one step. Complex reactions involve intermediate steps before achieving the desired reaction.

Molecularity is equal to the sum of the coefficients of the reactants, so two reactants give a second-order bimolecular reaction. However, second-order reactions can involve more than two reactants especially in complex reactions.

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Gas

Increase the pressure

Explanation:

Let's refer to the attached phase diagram for CO₂ (not to scale).

<em>At -57 °C and 1 atm, carbon dioxide is in which phase?</em>

If we look at the intersection between -57°C and 1 atm, we can see that CO₂ is in the gas phase.

<em>At 10°C and 2 atm carbon dioxide is in the gas phase. From these conditions, how could the gaseous CO₂ be converted into liquid CO₂?</em>

Since at 10°C and 2 atm carbon dioxide is below the triple point, the only way to convert it into liquid is by increasing the pressure (moving up in the vertical direction).
