yes

EDIT:

No. It sublimates.

What happens when dry ice melts?

Rather than melts, dry ice evaporates. This process is called sublimation and happens at a slower rate than the melting of water ice.


What does dry ice have to do with sustainability?

It is called dry ice because it looks like ice, but when it melts, no water comes out. It is dry. It looks like ice. AND IF YOU EAT IT YOU CAN DIE. you can't eat it


What ice becomes when its melt?

When ice melts it becomes WATER!


Is it true or false that when solid melts it turns into gas?

both. It depends what substance it is. For example: solid water (ice) melts into liquid water (water) and then that melts into gas water (water vapour). Another example is that frozen carbon dioxide (c02)which is a solid also known as dry ice, melts into c02 gas hence the name dry ice because when it melts it goes straight into a gas state.


Why is solid carb0n dioxide called dry ice?

When frozen, it looks like a block of ice. when it melts, instead of water, dry carbon dioxide gas is the result.


What happens when you dont put water in dry ice?

It still melts if it is above -110 degrees Fahrenheit.


How long can sandwiches keep on dry ice?

As long as the ice melts.


What happens when ice is dropped into hot water?

When ice is dropped into hot water, the ice will melt due to the higher temperature of the water. The heat from the water is transferred to the ice, causing it to melt and eventually reach thermal equilibrium with the water.


Which melts faster water or ice?

ANSWER: Ice melts faster because water doesn't melt.


Why is dry ice called so?

Dry ice is called so because it consists of solid carbon dioxide, rather than water ice. When dry ice melts, it sublimates directly into carbon dioxide gas, without leaving a liquid residue, which is why it is termed as "dry" ice.


What is the differences between ice and water?

Both dry ice and ice have cold temperatures and are commonly used for freezing and cooling. Ice forms at 32°F while dry ice forms at minus 109.3°F. Water ice is created when water is exposed to very low temperatures while dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide. Their main difference however lies in the fact that regular water ice melts into liquid while dry ice sublimates directly from solid to gas. Dry is also more dense compared to regular water ice, thus dry ice sinks in water while regular water ice floats.
