Answer:

Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (CO2). ... Instead, dry ice converts into carbon dioxide gas. Because dry ice is extremely cold ( -109°F/-78.5°C), non-toxic, and completely dry, it is commonly used as an expendable refrigerant to ship frozen food or medical products or to cool materials during production.

Dry ice sublimates at 194.65 K (−78.5 °C; −109.3 °F) at Earth atmospheric pressures. This extreme cold makes the solid dangerous to handle without protection due to burns caused by freezing (frostbite). While generally not very toxic, the outgassing from it can cause hypercapnia (abnormally elevated carbon dioxide levels in the blood) due to buildup in confined locations.

Answer:

Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. It is formed by lowering the temperature and increasing pressure. It is called dry ice because it directly changes from solid to gas without going into liquid state.
