# As dry ice sublimates (it doesn't melt, because there's no liquid state between solid and gas), the carbon dioxide it gives off is larger in volume so it will break open a sealed container. In a bottle, though, what it does is pop the lid. If the lid is tight enough, it will shoot off pretty forcefully. The same goes with test tubes and other such containers. # technically yes. but it would either take a very long time or only build up pressure but not enough to explode the bottle. This could happen if the bottle is not completely dried out on the inside or if you put dry ice in a bottle on a humid day and the humidity gets into the bottle. or starts to make the dry ice react b4 u put it in the bottle and it continues while inside the bottle.

Can you reuse dry ice?

If you mean the dry ice bomb as in putting dry ice in a bottle and sealing it, and then having it explode, then no. The bottle and the dry ice cannot be reused from the Dry Ice Bomb. The reasoning is that the Dry Ice would have already used enough of its fuel to try to explode the bottle that no fuel is left to explode another, and the bottle would be ripped in half by the Dry Ice inside, so the bottle cannot be reused.


How do you make a water bottle explode?

Why does the balloon blow up when it is on a plastic bottle with dry ice and water in it?

Can dry ice explode?

Dry ice bombs are usually created from a container like plastic bottles, water, and dry ice. The solid carbon dioxide becomes warmer resulting to increase in pressure and limited room to expand.

How many dry ice you put in a water bottle bomb?

You can generally just fill the bottle a quarter of water and put in enough dry ice chunks to fill the bottom of the container; I'll say about 6 normal sized chunks for a 2-liter bomb.


Microwave frozen water bottle?

As water freezes and becomes ice it expands in volume. If a bottle is half-filled with water and then frozen, the bottle should remain intact because the volume of air in the bottle will contract as the water/ice expands and so the airspace will accommodate the final volume of the ice. If the bottle is completely filled with water and then frozen, the bottle will most likely break because there is no airspace to 'absorb' the expansion of the water/ice. As the freezing is a relatively slow process, the bottle will not explode, but will in all likelyhood crack and may break apart.


How do you make fog in a bottle?

Make fog in a bottle with hot waterIn this case the condensation is caused by the temperature variation between simple ice and hot water. 1. Fill up the jar or bottle completely with very hot water and let it stay there for about 60 seconds. 2. Pour out all but about an inch of the hot water. 3. Put a strainer or bag over the top of the jar. 4. Place ice cubes in the strainer or plastic bag. 5. Fog will form as the hot water vapor from the bottom of the bottle contacts the cold air created by the ice cubes and begins condensation.and there ya go. hehe


Can you pop a cork with dry ice?

If there was a small amount of dry ice in the bottle, then yes, it would be able to pop a cork


What will happen to a sealed balloon that contains dry ice if the balloon is left at room temperature?

If the ice melts, then because of the density of water, it will implode (Explode INWARD) because of the less particles in the liquid.
