If a person took dry ice into his mouth, he would kill all the tissue that the dry ice touched, and could possibly die.
If you even touch dry ice, it is so cold that it feels like it is burning you. Imagine what it could do to the thin, sensitive tissues in your mouth and throat.

Will dry ice melt on contact with salt?
No, dry ice will not melt on contact with salt. In the first place, dry ice does not melt. It does not have a liquid phase under normal atmospheric pressure. It transforms from solid to gas, which is called sublimation. Dry ice sublimes, rather than melts. Secondly, salt has no effect on the sublimation of dry ice. Salt has an effect on frozen water, but it does not have an effect on frozen carbon dioxide. Salt is soluble in water, it is not soluble in carbon dioxide.
What do you think might be the reason that wet ice and salt are less active than dry ice?
What are you asking here? Dry ice sublimes into gaseous CO2, whereas salt is easily held by the water molecules in solution.
Which ice melts faster dry ice or regular ice?
Dry Ice because dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, totally different from ordinary ice, which is frozen water. Dry ice is much colder than water ice, thus it melts faster. P.S. DO NOT TOUCH IT FREEZES YOUR SKIN INSTANTLY!!
What is causing the change in dry ice and the water ice?
Temperature causes changes in dry and water ice
What happens when you put cinnamon in dry ice?
When you put cinnamon it dry ice it adbrutly melts.
Can you put dry ice in salt water?
Yes, you can put dry ice in salt water. It will bubble furiously and cool down the salt water.
What happens if you put saltbon dry ice?
You will have some dry water sodium. Salty dry ice.

What happens when ice and salt melt together?
I assume you are asking why salt melts ice. It's very difficult to tell from your question... What happens, is that ice always has a thin layer of liquid water on it. When salt disolves in water it produces heat, melting the ice, providing more liquid water to disolve the salt into.
What happens to the water temperature and water state as dry ice is added?
The temperature decrease and water can be transformed in ice.
What happens when dry ice is placed in soapy water?
it foams
What happens when dry ice melts?
Rather than melts, dry ice evaporates. This process is called sublimation and happens at a slower rate than the melting of water ice.
What happens to a glass of ice water with salt sprinkled around it?
nothing, it's only effective when salt is sprinkled ON the ice.
What happens when you put ice in salt water?
Pouring the salt in your hand and squeezing the ice cube for at least 5 to 10 minutes will leave a huge blister.
What do you think might be the reason that wet ice and salt are less active than dry ice?
What are you asking here? Dry ice sublimes into gaseous CO2, whereas salt is easily held by the water molecules in solution.
What happens to ice cubes if salt water is added?
It melts slowly.
Why does dry ice last longer when salt is sprinkled on it?
it is a process called freezing point depression. The salt lowers the freezing point of water therefore it has to be colder for the water to return to ice
