No, dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, or CO2.

Which gas freezes to make dry ice?

i think it is nitrogen!


Does a magnet float on dry ice?

No, a magnet does not float on dry ice. Dry ice does not have magnetic properties and cannot support the weight of a magnet like a liquid nitrogen bath could.


Is dry ice frozen nitrogen or a solid form of carbon dioxide?

Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide, not frozen nitrogen. When carbon dioxide gas is compressed and cooled, it turns directly into a solid without passing through a liquid phase, resulting in dry ice.


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?


Can nitrogen gas be used to make dry ice?

Nitrogen in its liquid state is a cryogenic gas aka cryogen.


Is nitrogen the same thing as dry ice?

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.


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.


Can you freeze water using dry ice?

Yes you can, you just need to drop the dry ice into the water and voila, you've got frozen water


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.


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.
