no you have to freeze it to make it solid. it is really cold and you should try to make ice cream with it it really works

What is dry ice and how is it connected to sublimation?

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.


Term for changing of solid to liquid?

Gas -> liquid = condinsation Liquid -> solid = solidification Solid -> liquid = fusion Liquid -> gas = evaporation Solid directly to gas (with out becoming liquid) = sublimation Example = dry ice at room temperature.


How can a liquid dry into a solid?

By evaporation


Is dry air a solid or a liquid?

Dry air is a gas


Is sublimation melting or freezing?

SUBLIMATION: It is a process in which a solid instead of changing into liquid state changes directly into gaseous state upon heating. MELTING: It is a process in which a solid at its melting point changes into liquid state upon heating.


How does sublimation differ from condensation?

Condensation is changing from a gas to a liquid. In sublimation, substance goes directly from solid to gas without ever becoming a liquid. Moth balls and dry ice both do that.


Which of these refers to a solid changing directly to a gas without first becoming a liquid?

Solids typically melt to liquids before boiling into a gas. However, when a solid goes directly from a solid to a gas, the process is called sublimation. Iodine and dry ice are two common examples of substances that sublimate at room temperature.


How dry solid can be obtained from the liquid in which it is dissolved?

by crystalization


Is dry ice a liquid?

Dry ice is not a liquid. It is a solid form of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide changes from a gas to a solid at low temperatures, under pressure.


Would dry ice function the same way as liquid nitrogen in the balloon experiment?

No, because dry ice is a solid and you cannot place a solid inside a solid. If it was liquid carbon dioxide (as opposed to dry ice, solid carbon dioxide) then it would behave similarly.


What is it called when a solid to gas?

sublimation Sometimes solids can change directly into a gas without becoming a liquid first. The most common substance that goes directly from solid to gas is Carbon Dioxide. It goes directly from solid (dry ice) to gas.


Matter passes from a solid to a gas without passing through a liquid phase?

When A Solid Changes Directly To A Gas With Out Going To A Liquid First It Is Called Sublimation. There is one common object that performs sublimating, and that is dry ice.
