Both dry ice and ice have cold temperatures and are commonly used for freezing and cooling. Ice forms at 32°F while dry ice forms at minus 109.3°F. Water ice is created when water is exposed to very low temperatures while dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide. Their main difference however lies in the fact that regular water ice melts into liquid while dry ice sublimates directly from solid to gas

What is solid CO2 called?
a molecular solid...
What is the common name for dry ice?
Dry ice IS the solid form of carbon dioxide. And "dry ice" IS the common name for the solid CO2. So the question should be "What substance is the common name Dry Ice used for ? "
Is dry ice the same as water in the solid state?
No. Dry ice is carbon dioxide in the solid state. Regular ice is solid water.
Is dry ice a element?
Dry ice is not an element. Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, CO2, which is a compound.
What is dry ice made from and what is the difference between dry ice and regular ice cubes?
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. Both dry ice and ice have cold temperatures and are commonly used for freezing and cooling. Ice forms at 32°F while dry ice forms at minus 109.3°F. Water ice is created when water is exposed to very low temperatures while dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide. Their main difference however lies in the fact that regular water ice melts into liquid while dry ice sublimates directly from solid to gas.
What is the difference between regular ice and dry ice and how do you make dry ice?
Both dry ice and ice have cold temperatures and are commonly used for freezing and cooling. Ice forms at 32°F while dry ice forms at minus 109.3°F. Water ice is created when water is exposed to very low temperatures while dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide. Their main difference however lies in the fact that regular water ice melts into liquid while dry ice sublimates directly from solid to gas. Dry ice is made when carbon dioxide (CO2) gas is compressed in a high-pressure container until it liquefies. Upon the release of pressure, some of the liquid turns into gas that cools some of the liquid into its solid state in the form of dry ice.
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.
How can dry ice come?
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide.
What is dry ice and is dry ice the solid state of water and explain based of your observations.?
Dry ice is solid CO2. It is a cooling agent used in refrigerators, etc..
Is dry ice water?
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide (CO2).
What is called dry ice?
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide (CO2).
Is dry ice a metal?
No. Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, which is a nonmetal.
