(N/A) The critical temperature $(T_C)$ of $CO_2$ is $31.1^{\circ}C$ (standard value).
At $30.98^{\circ}C$ (which is approximately $T_C$),$CO_2$ exists in equilibrium between gas and liquid phases.
At $13.1^{\circ}C$ $(T < T_C)$,$CO_2$ exists as a liquid at high pressure.
At $31.5^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$ $(T > T_C)$,$CO_2$ exists as a gas regardless of the pressure applied.

What is the Andrews isotherm graph used for?

Two different gases $A$ and $B$ are filled in separate containers of equal capacity under the same conditions of temperature and pressure. On increasing the pressure slightly,gas $A$ liquefies,but gas $B$ does not liquefy even on applying high pressure until it is cooled. Explain this phenomenon.
