Question
Carbon dioxide changes from a solid – dry ice – to a gas at -78.5°C. Determine what type of change this is. Physical changeChemical reactio
Solution
This is a physical change. The transition of carbon dioxide from a solid (dry ice) to a gas is a change in its state of matter, not in its chemical composition. This process is known as sublimation.
