What is dry ice called so?
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide.
Why is dry ice called so?
Dry ice is called so because it consists of solid carbon dioxide, rather than water ice. When dry ice melts, it sublimates directly into carbon dioxide gas, without leaving a liquid residue, which is why it is termed as "dry" ice.
Why dry ice is known as dry ice?
Solid carbon dioxide has the look and feel of ice (and is even colder). But it does not melt to a liquid, but sublimates to form a gas. So it is always dry.
Can you reuse dry ice?
If you mean the dry ice bomb as in putting dry ice in a bottle and sealing it, and then having it explode, then no. The bottle and the dry ice cannot be reused from the Dry Ice Bomb. The reasoning is that the Dry Ice would have already used enough of its fuel to try to explode the bottle that no fuel is left to explode another, and the bottle would be ripped in half by the Dry Ice inside, so the bottle cannot be reused.
How does the temperature of water affect the sublimation of dry ice?
cold water makes dry ice closer to its freezing point. so hot water makes dry ice sublimate more
How can you make dry ice at home?
Dry ice can be made at home, given that you have the necessary equipment such as portable dry ice makers and know how in making and handling dry ice. A portable dry ice maker allows you to produce dry ice anytime and almost everywhere. Some models of portable dry ice makers can produce 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.
How does dry ice in a ice cream cart disappear?
Dry Ice is made up of a chemical. When exposed to air it dissipates. The more the air gets to it the faster it disappears. To make you dry ice last longer, just keep your container closed and make sure it is air tight. The Ice Cream Man

Why is dry ice why is it called so?
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide, instead of water. The reason why it's called dry ice is under normal circumstances, heating dry ice will turn it directly into a gas, skipping a liquid form. The exception in all cases is under high pressure will melting dry ice turn into a liquid.
Is dry ice illegal in Australia?
yes? i hope so
How do company's make dry ice?
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. There are also portable dry ice makers available.Certain 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 equipment. So allocating space for this equipment isn't a problem. Check link below for more information on dry ice and dry ice makers.
