Title: structure of solid CO2
Post by: Jd1828 on November 18, 2005, 12:17:15 PM
Im trying to find out the structure of CO2 1, or the normal dry ice phase.  I found some stuff on the internet that says it has a face center cubic structure with 4 molecules per cell but its not a very reliable source.  Im looking for some experimental data that might contain the structure, bond lenghts, and the distances between the molecules in the cell. At any temp and pressure as long as its in phase 1.
