A lot of people assume that ice and dry ice are just the same, but actually, they are also different from each other. Ice is known to be regular ice. This is something that you can make when you want to make sure that you will be freezing something that is regular such as water. Always make sure that you will be able to reach the freezing point of water so that you can create ice.

Dry ice is usually made with the compression of carbon dioxide gas in high pressure. This means that dry ice cannot be considered as ice. Take note that this is not dangerous provided that it will be used and stored properly.
