Dry ice is the cold dense white mist produced by solid carbon dioxide in the air. The sublimation of dry ice is an endothermic reaction.

Dry ice is carbon dioxide in its solid state, just as carbon dioxide gas will not react again with any more oxygen, making it non-combustible.

Endothermic since it absorbs heat. That's why it's cold to touch.

Endothermic - Absorbing of Heat

Exothermic - Releasing of Heat

The dry ice is absorbing heat to turn into a gas

So it is...

Endothermic

Is ice endothermic or exothermic?

Definitions Exothermic - accompanied by, or requiring, the release of heat. Endothermic - accompanied by, or requiring, the absorption of heat. Now, does the melting ice get warmer or colder? If it gets colder, then it is exothermic. If it gets warmer, then it is endothermic. Consider how we make ice - we put water into a cold place so that it gets colder with time.


What is the chemical name of dry ice. why is it called dry ice. Is dry ice is same as the ordinary ice?

Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide (CO2). It is called dry ice because it does not melt when it heats up, it goes directly from solid to gas. It is NOT the same as ordinary ice, which is of course, solid water. Dry ice is much colder than ordinary ice.
