All ices on comets sublime to gas as it approaches toe sun.
a comet
rock, ice and gas!!
It is called a comet.
The tail of a comet is made up of dust and gas. The dust tail is composed of particles that reflect sunlight, while the gas tail is made up of ionized gas that is pushed away from the comet by the solar wind.
The Comet's Tail forms when sunlight causes the Comet's ice to change to a gas. The gas or ion , tail of a comet streams from the comet's head, carrying with it dust particles. The solar wind electrically charged particles, expand away from the sun pushes the gas away from the comet's head. Regardless of where its going the tail points away from the sun.

An asteroid is hunks of rock or metal a comet is ice and as it gets closer to the sun it turns to water vapor as it gets further it turns back to ice.

An Ice Comet is like a comet, just that it is made of ice.
Dry ice
It is solid ice and rock. The ice melts as it's coming near the sun though.

A comet (a dirty snowball) is a mix of ice, dirt and rock. It orbits is a wide oval coming closest to the sun at it's perigee It's apogee is it's farthest point. As a comet comes close to the sun, the ice sublimates (turns directly from ice into steam). When a comet comes closest to the sun the tail is largest.
Ice. Liquid turns into a solid when it freezes, so water turns into ice.
Ice crystals and escaping gas, such as carbon dioxide and ammonia.
