Carbon dioxide is commonly found as a solid (dry ice) or a gas (carbon dioxide gas). Jeff's teacher asked him to draw models to show the motion of carbon dioxide molecules that make dry ice different from carbon dioxide gas. Describe what was correct and what might be improved about Jeff's models in showing the motion of the carbon dioxide molecules that make dry ice different from carbon dioxide gas

Answer:

An image is given for reference.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Dry ice is also named as CO 2 and gets its name as it does not melt into a liquid when heated, and instead, it directly changes into a gas by the process of sublimation.
  • When energy is being transferred from one state to another the CO 2 gas is pressurized and refrigerated. In terms of molecular motion and kinetic energy, gas molecules can exert pressure and molecules moves in up and down direction.
