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.

What happens to the size of the dry ice as the bubbling goes on?

Dry ice decreases in size, because it is sublimating. This means it is turning from a solid in to a gas. Where as regular ice melts in to a puddle of liquid water, dry ice evaporates in to CO2 gas.
