Carbon dioxide turns into what is known as "dry ice" which is fact solid carbon dioxide. It changes directly from a solid to a gas at about -56°C under normal atmospheric conditions without going through a wet liquid stage. This process is known as sublimation.
Dry Ice, IS carbon Dioxide. Simple as. Like Ice is solid water, Dry Ice is solid carbon dioxide that sublimes into carbon dioxide in its gaseous state.
because dry ice is the solid state of CO2 and CO2 doesn't have a liquid state
Carbon dioxide goes straight from "dry ice" to gaseous carbon dioxide.
The solid carbon dioxide is transformed directly in gaseous carbon dioxide; this phenomenon is called sublimation.
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide. While it doesn't cause anything, when dry ice sublimates (melts, except without becoming a liquid), gaseous carbon dioxide is released. So if this happens in an enclosed space, there will be a buildup of carbon dioxide.
When a solid evaporates directly to a gaseous state, it is called sublimation.
No, if carbon dioxide (in gaseous state ) is cooled to -80 degrees centigrade, it converts to dry ice.
Carbon dioxide goes straight from "dry ice" to gaseous carbon dioxide.
Dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) sublimates into gaseous carbon dioxide at -78.5 oC at atmospheric pressure. (Wikipedia)
Dry ice IS the solid form of carbon dioxide. And "dry ice" IS the common name for the solid CO2. So the question should be "What substance is the common name Dry Ice used for ? "

Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide. While it doesn't cause anything, when dry ice sublimates (melts, except without becoming a liquid), gaseous carbon dioxide is released. So if this happens in an enclosed space, there will be a buildup of carbon dioxide.
solid carbon dioxide (CO2) is stored under high pressure. Solid CO2 gets converted directly to gaseous state on decrease of pressure to 1 atmosphere without coming into liquid state. This is the reason that solid carbon dioxide is also known as dry ice
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide goes from a solid phase to a gaseous phase without becoming a liquid and that transition is called sublimation.
When a solid evaporates directly to a gaseous state, it is called sublimation.
dry ice is actually solid carbon dioxide . it does not melt coz it directly sublimes into gaseous stat
Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide- it evaporates ito gaseous form if you leave it out. That is why it is "dry".
Dry ice is a solid form of cooled carbon dioxide. When it reaches room temperature it changes to gaseous carbon dioxide. Since, there is no change in the chemical composition of dry ice, it is called a physical change.
