No, it's just an aerosol, like fog or a cloud or the visible water droplets above boiling water. It's droplets in the air, so it's still liquid. Once it's invisible, it's in gas form

I actually really like the idea that the pensive was just a bunch of super critical carbon dioxide. As they say, any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
@J.Trimboli It's a bit over 1000 PSI. That can be quite dangerous due to the pressure, but assuming nothing bad happens, as the container is opened, it will push the O-ring out, venting the CO2 to the atmosphere. The pressure will drop in the area where it is being vented, causing the CO2 to drop below its supercritical point. The temperature will also drop from the expansion of the CO2. So the CO2 will just turn into vapor, but with the temperature drop, could remain liquid. BUT, as CO2 is a kinda weird gas, it can't be a liquid at atmospheric pressures, so will deposition (reverse of sublimation) into frozen flakes of CO2 - aka dry ice... What's really interesting is if the polycarbonate plastic window is left under high pressure CO2 for extended amount of time, the CO2 will diffuse into the plastic. Releasing the CO2 pressure can cause the plastic surface to "foam" from the CO2 pressure entrapped in the plastic
cuando era niño siempre me preguntaba por que los encendedores tenían liquido y no gas, hasta que entendí que la presión tiene mucho que ver, simplemente es fascinante.
Not quite his first words, but yeah, close enough to his first words that it Mike Welby why he didn't label the thumbnail pic this is not a liquid, gas, solid, or plasma. Then again, that might just because that many words would be hard to read on a thumbnail pic.
@@jamesdong8179 I would suggest it is a point where physics and chemistry overlap. Thermodynamics was probably the first thing we learned in my high schools chemistry and our physics. And both go hand in hand at many points.
This is not really multiple states existing at the same time. That would having be (eg) hot water in a closed system with saturated humidity in the air above it such that evaporation and condensation happen at the same rate. This is when there is no difference between being a liquid and being a gas. It is related, but this is way weirder.
Instant Death ! I was told a stoy of when my Grandfather was serving in the Army on skipatrol in Alaska one of men had a flask of alcohol in the outside pocket of his coat where it was not protected from the cold. It was so cold the alcohol got well below the freezing temperature for water. They stopped for a break. He chugged down a big swig, and the alcohol in a liquid form flash froze the moisture in his throat and he dropped dead.
That’s insane! But also probably wildly traumatic for a bunch of guys to see a friend suddenly die while already pressed under such intense circumstances 😱🤯

In refrigeration, when using co2 as a refrigerant, you have to ensure that you add enough co2 vapor to reach above 75 psi before introducing liquid co2 to avoid forming dry ice inside the closed system. If you take a look at an enthalpy chart for co2, they call it the triple point. Seeing it in a sight glass as a supercritical fluid is pretty funky because, typically, we dont let it get to that point. Co2 is also a volatile natural refrigerant. It can be very dangerous under harsh conditions and has extremely good heat exchange. Gotta be very carely adding heat, especially when there is still liquid present, could burst piping and blow a whole charge. On average, per degree added to the system, the pressure increases rapidly around 7-8 psi. That number increases when moving up the enthalpy chart. For instance, when co2 moves from the subcritical cycle to the transcritical cycle. Or, from transcritical to supercritical.
@camronyoung96 typically in refrigeration, we see this on Hill Phoenix Booster racks that do both Med and Low temp refrigeration. There is a multitude of ways they set up those types of racks up as well. You can cool the co2 with air, water, secondary liquids like glycol, and even ammonia. It gets pretty deep on some real, but it's extremely interesting. At least, i think it is lol
A slightly more technical explanation: Liquids and gases are different states because at one point in the transition from one to the other you put in (recover) heat without changing the temperature. This is called the latent heat of evaporation, and it happens at the boiling of that substance at a particular pressure. Above a specific temperature and pressure - the critical point (which varies by substance) - the latent heat goes to 0. This means that there is no dividing line between gases and liquids, you can move from one to the other without any energy cost and without any step effects or discontinuities. As such, there's no reason to consider gases and liquids different states of matter in this regime. Yes, this is weird. What is even weirder is that there is no critical point above which the solid-liquid or solid-gas phase changes disappear.
I'm curious what properties the supercritical co2 has, like, if you spun that chamber around, would it behave like a liquid, a gas, in between? If there was a marble inside the chamber, how would it's movement be affected by the supercritical gas in it's path when moving? Would the marble act as a nucleaction point ? Etc. Since it's such a simple yet visually stunning experiment maybe you should do a deep dive on it since nobody has, at least nobody as popular as you that I know of.
As a kid, I wonder how cool it would be to have a cup of that liquid CO2 to drink As an adult, I realize I’m probably going to die from a child-like idea I just had

Weird how i learned about supercritical CO2 just this week. Its very useful for oil extraction like essential oils. And cool thing about CO2, it just becomes a gas after extraction so your oils are as pure as they can be.
I've worked with it in supermarket Refrigeration systems over the last 6 years or so. Very good stuff, but the pressures it operates, especially when its transcritical is silly

@J.Trimboli
It's a bit over 1000 PSI.
That can be quite dangerous due to the pressure, but assuming nothing bad happens, as the container is opened, it will push the O-ring out, venting the CO2 to the atmosphere. The pressure will drop in the area where it is being vented, causing the CO2 to drop below its supercritical point. The temperature will also drop from the expansion of the CO2. So the CO2 will just turn into vapor, but with the temperature drop, could remain liquid. BUT, as CO2 is a kinda weird gas, it can't be a liquid at atmospheric pressures, so will deposition (reverse of sublimation) into frozen flakes of CO2 - aka dry ice...
What's really interesting is if the polycarbonate plastic window is left under high pressure CO2 for extended amount of time, the CO2 will diffuse into the plastic. Releasing the CO2 pressure can cause the plastic surface to "foam" from the CO2 pressure entrapped in the plastic

Multiple states existing at one time is one of my favorite concepts in chemistry.
I would suggest that it is in fact thermodynamics, not chemistry
@@jamesdong8179 I would suggest it is a point where physics and chemistry overlap. Thermodynamics was probably the first thing we learned in my high schools chemistry and our physics. And both go hand in hand at many points.
@@evanmisejka4062 Chemistry is just applied physics anyways /smirk
(without the 'just' this sentence is unironically true)
This is not really multiple states existing at the same time. That would having be (eg) hot water in a closed system with saturated humidity in the air above it such that evaporation and condensation happen at the same rate. This is when there is no difference between being a liquid and being a gas. It is related, but this is way weirder.
@@QuantumHistorian do you know what’s actually going on in the video? I would like to know

I was told a stoy of when my Grandfather was serving in the Army on skipatrol in Alaska one of men had a flask of alcohol in the outside pocket of his coat where it was not protected from the cold. It was so cold the alcohol got well below the freezing temperature for water. They stopped for a break. He chugged down a big swig, and the alcohol in a liquid form flash froze the moisture in his throat and he dropped dead.
That’s insane! But also probably wildly traumatic for a bunch of guys to see a friend suddenly die while already pressed under such intense circumstances 😱🤯

"This is not a liquid or a gas"
So it's a solid, right?
RIGHT?
i think it’s a vapor
In refrigeration, when using co2 as a refrigerant, you have to ensure that you add enough co2 vapor to reach above 75 psi before introducing liquid co2 to avoid forming dry ice inside the closed system. If you take a look at an enthalpy chart for co2, they call it the triple point. Seeing it in a sight glass as a supercritical fluid is pretty funky because, typically, we dont let it get to that point. Co2 is also a volatile natural refrigerant. It can be very dangerous under harsh conditions and has extremely good heat exchange. Gotta be very carely adding heat, especially when there is still liquid present, could burst piping and blow a whole charge. On average, per degree added to the system, the pressure increases rapidly around 7-8 psi. That number increases when moving up the enthalpy chart. For instance, when co2 moves from the subcritical cycle to the transcritical cycle. Or, from transcritical to supercritical.
What kind of equipment needs that level of refrigerant?! P.s. thank you for the info dump, you got him quite a few more views too 😂
I understand nothing. ty 👍
@@PlatsInGCSeed banks are one example I can think of, incase you don't want to use something as expensive or hazardous as liquid nitrogen.
What happens when it goes ultra mega critical?
@camronyoung96 typically in refrigeration, we see this on Hill Phoenix Booster racks that do both Med and Low temp refrigeration. There is a multitude of ways they set up those types of racks up as well. You can cool the co2 with air, water, secondary liquids like glycol, and even ammonia. It gets pretty deep on some real, but it's extremely interesting. At least, i think it is lol
A slightly more technical explanation: Liquids and gases are different states because at one point in the transition from one to the other you put in (recover) heat without changing the temperature. This is called the latent heat of evaporation, and it happens at the boiling of that substance at a particular pressure. Above a specific temperature and pressure - the critical point (which varies by substance) - the latent heat goes to 0. This means that there is no dividing line between gases and liquids, you can move from one to the other without any energy cost and without any step effects or discontinuities. As such, there's no reason to consider gases and liquids different states of matter in this regime.
Yes, this is weird. What is even weirder is that there is no critical point above which the solid-liquid or solid-gas phase changes disappear.
Yeah so there!!!😂 sir U R badasss!🤪
"a liquid and a gas at the same time"
Me: "a vapour?
It's a actually the opposite. A supercritical fluid is named "gas", a subcritical aeriform fluid is a "vapour".
Solidus
A fluid is the more appropiate term
Gaquid
Why do people add the "me:" like just say what you're gonna say you don't have to state that you're the one saying it
I'm curious what properties the supercritical co2 has, like, if you spun that chamber around, would it behave like a liquid, a gas, in between? If there was a marble inside the chamber, how would it's movement be affected by the supercritical gas in it's path when moving? Would the marble act as a nucleaction point ? Etc.
Since it's such a simple yet visually stunning experiment maybe you should do a deep dive on it since nobody has, at least nobody as popular as you that I know of.

Weird how i learned about supercritical CO2 just this week. Its very useful for oil extraction like essential oils. And cool thing about CO2, it just becomes a gas after extraction so your oils are as pure as they can be.
Yeah It Is also used industrially to absorb caffeine from the coffee beans, making decaffeinated coffee, pretty cool
I've worked with it in supermarket Refrigeration systems over the last 6 years or so. Very good stuff, but the pressures it operates, especially when its transcritical is silly
Even more cool is that by controlling the pressure and heat you can target specific things in your extraction process.
