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.
What else can I help you with?
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?
Wet ice and salt are less active than dry ice because they have higher thermal conductivity, which facilitates quicker cooling of the surroundings. Dry ice, on the other hand, sublimates directly from solid to gas, resulting in rapid cooling due to the latent heat of sublimation.
When you add salt to ice what happens to the melting point of the ice?
Adding salt to ice decreases its melting point. Adding salt to the top of ice helps melt the ice faster.
What happens when you put dry ice in water?
When dry ice is put in water, it sublimates, turning from a solid directly into carbon dioxide gas. This creates a bubbling effect as the gas is released, and the water may appear to boil. The combination of dry ice and water can also create a foggy or misty effect due to the rapid cooling of the surrounding air.
What happens to the melting point of water when salt is added to it?
When salt is added to ice, the melting point goes up, causing the ice to melt faster. That's why is cities where ice frequently is one sidewalks in winter, people shovel salt onto the sidewalk.
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.
Why does dry ice last longer when salt is sprinkled on it?
Sprinkling salt on dry ice can help it last longer by lowering the temperature at which the dry ice sublimates. The salt lowers the freezing point of the surrounding moisture on the dry ice, creating a icy slush layer that insulates the dry ice and slows down the sublimation process.
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 to ice cubes if salt water is added?
It melts slowly.
What is the chemical formula for water carbon dioxcideknow as dry ice sugar and tabel salt?
water is H20 carbon dioxide is CO2 dry ice is carbon dioxide so is CO2 also table salt is sodium chloride - NaCl
Why does ice melt when salt is added?
Salt decreases the freezing point of water, causing the ice to melt. This happens because the salt lowers the temperature at which the ice can exist in a solid state, leading to the ice absorbing heat from its surroundings and melting.
