Dry ice is colder than regular ice and if you touch it ,it will hurt. Dry ice is solidified Carbon Dioxide, and it does not go from solid state to liquid state - it goes from solid state to gaseous state through a process called sublimation.
Why is ice less dense than water when usually, the solid version of a substance is more dense than the liquid version?
(Hint: Look at the molecular structure of ice.)
what is dry ice and is it dangerous?
If you heat dry ice, it turns in to CO2 gas. This is easily seen when you put dry ice in to hot water. You see tons of tiny CO2 gas bubbles popping up.
ice is slippery and dry ice is not because ice dosent dry out when the sun hits it and dry ice does!
I know someone who has teseted it before. If you put dry ice in a cup ( DONT HOLD IT LONG BECAUSE IT MIGHT HURT YOU) and put a lid over it, it WILL pop. And a smokey colored fog comes out. I think he said if that interactes with your body then it is NOT good. So the answer is NO. :)
a molecular solid...
Dry ice can be bought in local grocery stores. However you can also produce your own dry ice through a portable dry ice maker. Certain portable dry ice makers are capable of producing 1-lb blocks of dry ice within a minute. Portable dry ice makers also don't occupy so much space since they are usually attached to CO2 containers and are not huge floor standing equipments. So allocating space for this equipment isn't a problem. It is advised to be fully informed on the safety precautions in handling dry ice before making your own at home. Check the link below, there is an article that discusses the perks of a portable dry ice maker comprehensibly.
My conclusion is, dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide.
it is impossible
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry ice is obtained from CO2 at a temperature under -80 oC.
It makes erratic bubbles
If you heat dry ice, it turns in to CO2 gas. This is easily seen when you put dry ice in to hot water. You see tons of tiny CO2 gas bubbles popping up.
Becasue of chemical chain reactions.
The dry ice will sublime, producing carbon dioxide gas. The gas can cause the soapy water to produce many bubbles, resulting in an interesting display.
The bubbles you see that come from dry ice are filed with carbon dioxide and water vapour the surface tension of the water causes the bubbles to happen and when you bow on them the presure of the wind breaks the surface tension releasing the CO2 and eater.
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 ? "
If you drop a chunk of dry ice into warm water it crates a fog and bubbling effect. You can also add dishsoap to get bubbles coming out of the container. *Never touch Dry ice with bare skin you thick glove or tongs. *Dry ice is sold in most supermarkets.
well,if you mix it im not sure what will happen but if you put water in a bowl or cup and put dry ice in it it will form fog. Then if you get a cloth that has been soaking in soap and rub the cloth on the cup or bowl slowly but only on the top you next will see a giant bubble starting to grow and when its done growing it will pop and erupt to only fog. IT IS SO COOL! You should try it you will love it!
Dry Ice is frozen Carbon Dioxide. It is also the gas that forms the bubbles in soda water and pop, etc. It is commonly used as a cooling agent to prevent perishable goods going bad, especially during transportation.
