No, dry ice frozen carbon dioxide (CO2), it is created when CO2 is released in a high-pressure container that results to the cooling of liquid to freezing point. Dry ice sublimates directly from solid gas and has the temperature of -109.3°F or -78.5°C.

An easy research report on ice and dry ice?
ice is slippery and dry ice is not because ice dosent dry out when the sun hits it and dry ice does!
What is solid CO2 called?
a molecular solid...
What is the chemical name of dry ice. why is it called dry ice. Is dry ice is same as the ordinary ice?
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide (CO2). It is called dry ice because it does not melt when it heats up, it goes directly from solid to gas. It is NOT the same as ordinary ice, which is of course, solid water. Dry ice is much colder than ordinary ice.
What is solidified carbon dioxide commonly known as?
Solidified Carbon Di Oxide is commonly known as dry ice. At temperature below -78.5oC, carbon di oxide converts into dry ice through sublimation.
Why is ice in a glacier consider to be a mineral but water from a glacier is not?
By definition a mineral must be solid. Ice is solid. Water is not.

When is water a mineral?
Water as a solid, in the form of ice, is considered a mineral when it is naturally occurring. Ice in snow banks is considered a mineral but ice cubes you make in your freezer are not a mineral.

Is ice an mineral?
Yes ice is a mineral because it has all of the physical traits an object needs to be considered a mineral; however, is not a mineral.
Why are ice cubes not a mineral?
Ice cubes are not naturally-occurring in the cube form, they are man-made. But ice itself is a mineral.

Why is ice in a glacier considered to be a mineral but but what forms a glacier is not?
Ice forms a glacier and therefore it is considered a mineral.
Is dry ice opaque?
Yes, dry ice is opaque.
Where do you get dry ice from?
Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide.
Does sams sell dry ice?
Do you sell dry ice
How do you prevent ice from melting?
Simple. You keep ice in dry ice. But be careful not to eat dry ice!
