Is dry ice a element a compound a mixture or none?

Dry ice is a compound, specifically solid carbon dioxide. It is not an element because it is composed of carbon and oxygen atoms bonded together in a specific ratio. It is also not a mixture since it does not have multiple substances physically combined.


Classify into a mixture or compound and element 1. calcium 2. water 3. dry ice 4.milk 5.soil 6.soap?

Calcium - element - solid water - compound - liquid dry ice (carbon dioxide) - compound - solid milk - mixture - liquid soil - mixture - solid soap - mixture - solid/ liquid


What are some creative ways to make refreshing summer treats using dry ice, such as dry ice popsicles?

One creative way to make refreshing summer treats using dry ice is to create dry ice popsicles. To do this, mix your favorite fruit juice or soda with chunks of dry ice in a mold. The carbonation from the dry ice will create a fizzy and refreshing popsicle. Another idea is to make a dry ice ice cream by mixing cream, sugar, and flavorings with dry ice in a bowl. The dry ice will freeze the mixture quickly, creating a creamy and smooth ice cream. Just be sure to handle dry ice carefully and follow safety precautions when using it in food preparation.


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 ratio od dry ice volume to mass?

The ratio of dry ice volume to mass depends on the temperature at which the dry ice is stored, as dry ice sublimes at -78.5°C. At this temperature, the volume of dry ice is about 832 cm³ per 1 kg of mass. Keep in mind that this ratio may vary slightly due to factors such as pressure and purity of the dry ice.
