the change from a solid to a gas (without changing into a liquid first) is known as sublimation
"Sublimation is an endothermic change (requires energy from its surroundings). As dry ice sublimes, the cold carbon dioxide vapor causes water vapor in the air to condense and form clouds."

∙ 16y agodry ice go from a solid to a gas because it sublimes. sublimation is the process by which a solid changes directly to a gas

∙ 13y agodry ice turns into gas by a physical process called sublimation. in this process, the frozen carbon dioxide skips the melt point and goes straight to gas because of sublimation.

∙ 11y agoThe process is called sublimation, where the change is from a solid directly into a gas- it happens when a substance has a high vapor pressure. It also happens to mothballs and iodine.

What temperature does dry ice melt?
Dry ice doesn't melt. It sublimates at -78 0C, or -109 0F. Sublimation is a direct transition from a solid to a gas, skipping the liquid phase.
Is dry ice a solid liquid or a gas?
Dry ice is the solid form (state of matter) of carbon dioxide (CO2).Under normal circumstances, it will change state from a solid directly to a gas. It does this without melting (changing state to a liquid). We call the direct transformation of a solid to a gas sublimation, and dry ice is said to sublime when going directly from its solid state to a gas.
Examples of gas to a solid?
gas- nitrogen when it touches something ist turns in to ice -solid and sorry that is all i can think of :/
Can nitrogen gas be used to make dry ice?
Nitrogen in its liquid state is a cryogenic gas aka cryogen.
How is ice a gas?
Ice turns into water when a room temperature is low (Warm, hot) . The ice melts and the and turns into water (In other words, 'Liquid'.) , and carrying on from that, the water evaporates and turns into 'Gas'.
Why does dry ice turn into gas more quickly when it is in water?
Because dry ice evaporates.
What gas does dry ice turn into?
carbon dioxide gas. im sure :)
Dry ice has the unique physical property called sublimation This means that solid dry ice can?
turn directly into gas....
What is the changing state of phase?
The change of phase or state is when a liquid, gas, or solid change its form! liquid can turn into a solid (ice) or a gas (steam). Gas can turn into a liquid (water).But there are some exceptions to this rule , such as dry ice. Dry ice turns directly into a gas.
What is the mist that forms around dry ice at room temperature?
The mist around dry ice are tiny water droplets and gas. It is formed when water strikes it and when water strikes it, some of the water's heat is transferred to the dry ice, causing it to turn into a gas.
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.
What happen if you heat dry ice to 50C?
Frozen carbon dioxide (dry ice) will turn back to a gas when heated at any temperature above freezing.
What solid can be turn into a gas but not a liquid?
Dry Ice, also known as Solid Carbon Dioxide
How does the gas escape from dry ice?
There is no ice escaping. Rather the dry ice is becoming a gas. It's called sublimation.
Why do water droplets bounce off of dry ice?
Dry ice is carbon dioxide at a very low temperature. When water strikes it, some of the water's heat is transferred to the dry ice, causing it to turn into a gas. This gas pushes the water away, so that the droplets seem to bounce off.
How Can a solid can turn a gas?
The gas in a gas stove can heat up ice until it melts into water and then evaporates into water vapor.
What are the examples gas?
dry ice
