  2. Dry ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_ice

    The low temperature and direct sublimation to a gas makes dry ice an effective coolant, since it is colder than water ice and leaves no residue as it changes state. [4] Its enthalpy of sublimation is 571 kJ/kg (25.2 kJ/mol, 136.5 calorie/g). Dry ice is non-polar, with a dipole moment of zero, so attractive intermolecular van der Waals forces ...

  3. Sublimation (phase transition) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublimation_(phase_transition)

    Sublimate also refers to the product obtained by sublimation. [2] [3] The point at which sublimation occurs rapidly (for further details, see below) is called critical sublimation point, or simply sublimation point. Notable examples include sublimation of dry ice at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, and that of solid iodine with heating.

  4. Mpemba effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mpemba_effect

    The Mpemba effect is the name given to the observation that a liquid (typically water) that is initially hot can freeze faster than the same liquid which begins cold, under otherwise similar conditions. There is disagreement about its theoretical basis and the parameters required to produce the effect.

  6. Latent heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_heat

    Black had placed equal masses of ice at 32 °F (0 °C) and water at 33 °F (0.6 °C) respectively in two identical, well separated containers. The water and the ice were both evenly heated to 40 °F by the air in the room, which was at a constant 47 °F (8 °C). The water had therefore received 40 – 33 = 7 “degrees of heat”.

  7. Volatility (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatility_(chemistry)

    Bromine liquid readily transitions to vapor at room temperature, indicating high volatility In chemistry , volatility is a material quality which describes how readily a substance vaporizes . At a given temperature and pressure , a substance with high volatility is more likely to exist as a vapour , while a substance with low volatility is more ...

  8. Dry ice color show - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_ice_color_show

    [1] [2] Dry ice is subsequently added to form carbonic acid, changing the pH of the solution from basic to acidic. [2] This causes the solution to change colors again. [2] [3] Simultaneously, a cloud of carbon dioxide is generated from the sublimation of dry ice due to the condensation of water vapor in the air. [4]

  9. Cold finger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_finger

    Another version involves filling the device with a cold material (examples: ice, dry ice or a mixture such as dry ice/acetone or ice/water). [1] Typically a cold finger is used in a sublimation apparatus, [2] or can be used as a compact version of a condenser in either reflux reaction or distillation apparatus.
