Hey CO_2CO​2​​ is a sublimate substance, so it does not have its liquid state.
According to your question;
Carbon dioxide will feel a sudden rise in its temp. because temp. is inversely proportional to pressure.

Hey
It is because of the structure of the CO2
C
O
2
. Two of carbon's valence electrons hybridize into two sp
s
p
hybrid orbitals. As a result, the molecule is one dimensional with an angle of 180∘

between bonds and completely non-polar. The Si
S
i
, on the other hand, does not form such bonds and the angle is far from 180°, which in conjunction with oxygens high electronegativity makes it quite polar. Thus the interaction between neighboring Si
S
i
and O
O
atoms of different SiO2
S
i
O

molecules is much higher and as a consequence you need much more energy to break the solid, giving it an increased melting point.
