We look at carbon dioxide as a gas and solid (dry ice), but more unusually as a liquid. This is part of our “Molecular Videos” series. More at http://www.periodicvideos.com/
Wow very neat I … Wow very neat I have never seen liquid CO2. What would happen if you fired a short laser pulse set at a frequency that could break up the molecule? What form of carbon would be produced?
@wassahilden: … @wassahilden: Thanks for watching….
As a few people have commented, I should point out it is a coal station (Ratcliffe-on-Soar). Yes the cooling towers still produce steam… But other parts (in the shot) do produce CO2.
Not that it’s vital, but I was aware of the issue and chose the shot accordingly.
Another piece of trivia for locals… though it is called Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station, it takes its water from the River Trent, not Soar!
I am so happy that … I am so happy that you are doing molecules now! This was a very interesting video. I don’t think I’ve ever seen liquid CO2! Can’t wait for part 2!

CO2 is not liquid at atmospheric pressure.
so you cant drink it!

Nuclear cooling towers produce STEAM, not CO2. (5:20) Coal on the other hand… I love the channel though.
