Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide and is a compound; nitrogen is an element.
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (chemical formula: CO2), comprising two oxygen atoms bonded to a single carbon atom. It is colourless, odourless, non-flammable, and slightly acidic.
What else can I help you with?
Is nitrogen dry ice?
No, dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, or CO2.
Is dry ice frozen nitrogen or a solid form of carbon dioxide?
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide, not frozen nitrogen. When carbon dioxide gas is compressed and cooled, it turns directly into a solid without passing through a liquid phase, resulting in dry ice.
Can you freeze water using dry ice?
Yes you can, you just need to drop the dry ice into the water and voila, you've got frozen water
Which is colder dry ice or regular ice with salt?
Dry ice vapor is carbon dioxide. The only argument that might be made is that the vapor, which is very cold, is more dense because of its lower temperature than "regular" or room temperature carbon dioxide.Carbon dioxide is a colorless and odorless gas, by the way. What you actually see when dry ice, the solid form of carbon dioxide changes state from a solid to a gas (which is called sublimation) is water vapor in the air condensing into tiny droplets because of the intense cold near the dry ice.
What happens when you breathe in dry ice?
You can't "breathe in" dry ice, it's a solid. It's solid carbon dioxide, so if you were to breathe in the fumes from it, the same thing would happen as if you breathed in carbon dioxide. Except that it's probably also quite cold. If you didn't also breathe in sufficient oxygen, you would suffocate.
Is nitrogen dry ice?
No, dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, or CO2.
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.
Which gas freezes to make dry ice?
i think it is nitrogen!
Does a magnet float on dry ice?
No, a magnet does not float on dry ice. Dry ice does not have magnetic properties and cannot support the weight of a magnet like a liquid nitrogen bath could.
Is liquid nitrogen an oxidizer?
dry ice −56.4 °C and liquid nitrogen is −196 °C
Is dry ice frozen nitrogen or a solid form of carbon dioxide?
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide, not frozen nitrogen. When carbon dioxide gas is compressed and cooled, it turns directly into a solid without passing through a liquid phase, resulting in dry ice.
What is another name poor man's liquid nitrogen refers to?
I've never actually heard this term used. I suppose it might mean either dry ice or a mixture of dry ice and acetone (or dry ice and diethyl ether), dry ice being somewhat easier for most people to obtain than liquid nitrogen.
If you do not have cold place is there any chemical that helps ice not to melt that fast?
Liquid nitrogen or dry ice perhaps?
Can nitrogen gas be used to make dry ice?
Nitrogen in its liquid state is a cryogenic gas aka cryogen.
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.
Does liquid nitrogen Sublimate?
Liquid nitrogen is not dry ice. Dry ice is a solid form of carbon dioxide and liquid nitrogen is pure nitrogen in liquid form. Dry ice is frozen nitrogen. Liquid nitrogen is also frozen nitrogen, but is also pressurized. That's why it's in large, steel boxes. Chur.
Is dry ice safe to put in drinks?
Yes. Dry ice is safe to put in drinks. It's only carbon dioxide (the same thing that makes soda fizzy) in it's frozen form. However, it is not safe to ingest. Ingestion of dry ice would result in a hospital visit. Also, putting in too much dry ice will cause the drink to freeze and be undrinkable.
