Which outcome occurs when pressurized liquid nitrogen experiences rapid DECOMPRESSION at ambient temperature?

💡 Explanation

Violent expansion results because rapid pressure reduction triggers BOILING, a liquid-to-gas phase transition; this is because nitrogen will achieve very high thermal instability rapidly and suddenly evaporate, therefore significant pressures will exert a volume expansion rather than reaching critical opalescence or any chemical reactions as the gas warms up.
