Sublimation takes place when an element or compound changes directly from a solid into a gas without passing through the liquid state....

this is what i found i do not know much about dry ice but i hope this helps you!!!

Dry ice, or solid carbon dioxide, sublimates under our normal sea level temperature and pressure, (due to some rather complicated triple point pressure curves and temperature curves and stuff) so as it sublimates, it loses mass.

Find A, B, and C
Lynna [10]
Electrons = protons
protons = atomic number
protons + neutrons = atomic mass

Therefore: a) protons + 7 = 15
                        protons= 15 -7
                        protons= 8

B) Remember proton = atomic number
     so atomic number = 8

C)Now we know the atomic number so we can easily check on the periodic table what element has an atomic number of 8, which is Oxygen

Answer:

The mechanical energy produced on burning fossil fuels is transformed into chemical energy stored in carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

When fossil fuels are burnt, mechanical energy is produced. Remember that according to the first law of thermodynamics, energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. Hence the mechanical energy produced when fossil fuels are burnt for industrial use, heating of homes, electricity generation , cooking etc the mechanical energy produced is not 'lost'. It must be transformed in to another form of energy.

In the image the arrow G----> C, shows the mechanical energy produced when fossil fuels are burnt are stored as chemical energy in CO2 bonds. CO2 is found in the atmosphere, hence the arrow point upwards from the source towards the atmosphere (C is the atmospheric reservoir of CO2). The energy is subsequently used by producers to produce chemical energy stored in food.

How many molecules are found in 3.4 moles of carbon dioxide?
madam [21]

Answer:

One mole of anything has 6.023 x 10^23 molecules.

That would mean 3.4moles of CO2 have 6.023x 10^23 times 3.0.

So that would be2.04782×10^24 molecules in 3.0 moles of C02.
