Liquefaction of Carbon Dioxide - 3 of 4

Once all of the solid has melted, the pressure rises farther. When the valve on the pressure gauge is opened, the pressure drops back down to 350 kilopascals. The liquid begins to boil quite rapidly and solid begins to form. When most of the liquid has changed to solid, the pressure drops back down to normal atmospheric pressure.
