(a) The P-T phase diagram for CO2 is shown here. O is the triple point of the CO2 phase diagram. This means that at the temperature and pressure corresponding to this point, the solid, liquid and vaporous phases of CO2 exists in equilibrium.
(b) The fusion and the boiling points of CO2 decreases with a decrease in pressure.
(c) The critical temperature and critical pressure of CO2 are 31 72.9 atm respectively. Even if it is compressed to a pressure greater than 72.9 atm, CO2 will not liquefy above the critical temperature.
(d) It can be concluded from the P-T phase diagram of CO2 that:
CO2 is gaseous at -70 , under 1 atm pr
