Best Answer

Sodium acetate, or Sodium ethanoate, is an ionic substance, which means that the positively-charged Sodium ion and the negatively-charged ethanoate ion are held together by strong electrostatic forces. So, at room temperature, sodium acetate is a solid.

How is dry ice formed when sodium acetate is added to water?

Dry ice is not formed in this instance.Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. The phenomenon involving sodium acetate is colloquially called hot ice. Simply adding sodium acetate to water will not produce this. You need to create a supersaturated solution. You add sodium acetate to water untill it cannot dissolve any more, and then cool the solution. Now you have an unstable solution that has more dissolved sodium acetate than it could normally hold. If it is disturbed, the sodium acetate will sponaneously crystallize.

Why does soduim ascetate turn into ice?

Firstly, when sodium acetate (CH3COONa) solidifies, it does not form "ice". It just becomes solid. This happens when the sodium acetate is heated to about 100oC, then cooled below its freezing point. When a foreign substance with the same crystal structure as sodium acetate is introduced, or a nucleation centre is provided, the sodium acetate will warm up to its freezing point and freeze at its (supposed to be) freezing point.
