Dry Ice

Dry ice, scientifically known as solid carbon dioxide (CO2), is a unique and versatile substance used for various purposes. Unlike regular ice, it sublimates, transitioning directly from a solid to a gas without melting into a liquid. With a temperature of around -78.5 degrees Celsius (-109.3 degrees Fahrenheit), dry ice is exceptionally cold and can cause frostbite on contact. Its ability to rapidly cool and maintain low temperatures makes it valuable for preserving perishable items during shipping. Additionally, the theatrical industry employs dry ice for creating dramatic fog effects. Despite its usefulness, handling dry ice requires caution due to its extreme cold temperatures and potential health risks.
