Dry Ice!

Local scientist Stan Swan popped in to Room1 to show us an 
experiment with dry ice!

Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide and when we added it to a 

container of water it produced clouds of steamy gas, just like 

smoke! Very exciting!

 Dry ice is frozen and so cold that it will burn your fingers if you touch it. We watched carefully with our eyes and Stan let us waft the warmer clouds of gas with our hands!

 The frozen pellets of dry ice look like this!
