Answer to Question #331859 in General Chemistry for CJJS

Question

You have ice at 263 K (-10.00°C) and 1.0 atm. What could you do to make the ice sublime

Answer 1

The temperature at which these processes occur at 1 atm pressure is 194.65 K. The temperature at which the rate of sublimation and deposition are the same is the temperature at which these two processes are in equilibrium (this temperature is the freezing point, or sublimation point of CO₂).
