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.

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 frozen Carbon Dioxide.
What substance is use to deep freeze?
Liquid Nitrogen or Dry Ice (Carbon Dioxide)
Can you freeze water using dry ice?
Dry ice can be turned into a liquid but there is a very slim range of temperatures that it can exist at.
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.
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 frozen Carbon Dioxide.
Which gas freezes to make dry ice?
i think it is nitrogen!
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.
Is liquid nitrogen an oxidizer?
dry ice −56.4 °C and liquid nitrogen is −196 °C
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?
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.
Can nitrogen gas be used to make dry ice?
Nitrogen in its liquid state is a cryogenic gas aka cryogen.
Can you freeze liquor with liquid nitrogen?
About the temperature of dry ice. It is the same as putting frozen water (ice) in a glass of water. The temperature of the ice and water will be about equal to the freezing point of water. Alcohol is used because it has a freezing point lower than H2O, if you put dry ice in water everything will freeze.
What substance is use to deep freeze?
Liquid Nitrogen or Dry Ice (Carbon Dioxide)
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.
