Solid carbon dioxide has the look and feel of ice (and is even colder). But it does not melt to a liquid, but sublimates to form a gas. So it is always dry.
Solidified Carbon Di Oxide is commonly known as dry ice. At temperature below -78.5oC, carbon di oxide converts into dry ice through sublimation.
The dry ice was not known by alchemists.
Dry ice doesn't melt, it changes from a solid state, to a gas state, that's why it's called DRY ICE, there is no known way that it melts.
Because it's not wet.
ice is slippery and dry ice is not because ice dosent dry out when the sun hits it and dry ice does!

It is known as Dry Ice
Solid carbon dioxide is known as "dry ice" because carbon dioxide as itself cannot exist in liquid form. Therefore, the ice is "dry," which is why it's called "dry ice." It looks like ice and it keeps things cold but it isn't wet.

Solid CO2 is also known as 'dry ice'
Because it's not wet.
When dry ice is heated, it does not become liquid - but sublimes (turns straight into gas). This means that there is no liquid residue left behind, so it is called 'dry'.
