Welcome back Daminmancejin!
2Chaotic Force (just in case). "Dry ice" is frozen carbon dioxide. (Unlike ice, which is frozen water). In room temperature, carbon dioxide is a gas. If you heat "dry ice", it will become a gas without becoming a liquid (unlike water, which at first melts, and boils AFTER that). Because carbon dioxide "boils" directly from the solid state (this process is called "sublimation"), you can't see a drops of LIQUID carbon dioxide. It looks like it just disappears. Because no single drop of liquid remains after heating it, it is called "dry ice".
Actually, "dry ice" looks like snow, not like ice. But in room temperature, this "snow" just "disappears", unlike common snow, which becomes liquid water.Last edited by Chemist; 06-10-2007, 02:07:40 PM.

Dry ice is also colder than normal H2O ice. The only other commercially avalible thing that i know of that is colder is liquid nitrogen. that stuff is similar to Dry Ice as it is a GAS. Just like LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) it is cold enough to freeze any living thing solid. I saw someone put a live rose in the stuff and froze it, then they dropped it and the rose shattered into pieces.
Liquefied gas is not something to play around with (though it will make your lager really cold). Think of instant frostbite to the 3rd degree. you dip your hand in the stuff it will need to be amputated.
Some where here on this site i posted something colder than Liquid nitrogen. It is frozen methane. Solidified methane gas that was ignited by a spark. look for it in the my upload testing thread. Oh it is also a government issued picture.Last edited by MIR; 06-10-2007, 03:29:49 PM.Cant stand the 32 bit and above gaming.
