Are comets made of ice gas and dust?
Yes they are made up of gas, ice, and dust. The long tail is a mix of gases. and remember a comet is different than an asteroid
What is made of ice rock and dust that gives off gas and dust in the fo rm of a tail?
Its a comet because a comet sheds off ice and dust in the shape of a tail
What does a comet's ion tail consist of?
An ion tail is made of electrically charged particles and a dust tail is made of dust. Also, an ion tail will always point away from the sun because of the solar winds, while a dust tail tends to follow the comet's orbit and doesn't always point away from the sun.
What is the two tail of a comet made of?
One tail is gas, and the other ice. The darker, colored tail is gas, and the white easy-to-see tail is ice.
What parts make up a comet and what are they made of?
The Tail, The Coma and the Nucleus. The Tail is made up of Dust and gas, the Coma is a cloud of gas, and the nucleus is a block of ice and gas.

Dust and gas 🌠☄
Which is longer the ion tail or the dust tail?
The dust tail because the dust tail has a curve to it which will make it take longer.
What three things are comets made of?
Comets are made of mainly 3 parts -dust tail, ion tail and coma

What is a dust tail on a comet?
Fine dust particles escape the nucleus as the ices melt. The dust tail is wide and yellowish. Dust particles are heavier than gas, so the dust tail may be seen in a different position than the ion tail.
