I believe dry ice evaporates??

No, but you can freeze like crazy.

Yep...it's called Dry Cleaning!

If you dont want to get wet why do you want to take bath then and no you can not because it either has a lot of presuure or it's really cold and both can kill you. and it would evaporate if you pour it on your body
-
No, dry melts into wet water and stuff. But try it - we ca all read about it in the news as to how it went.
-
no because dry ice isn't really ice from water. when dry ice is heated enough it evaporates because the chemical compound of dry ice is not the traditional h2o that water possesses.

No. But you can take an empty 2 liter bottle, 6 oz's cold water and a 3 oz sliver carved from dry ice thin enough to fit in the 2 liter bottle. Put both in the bottle, water first and place the cap on tight. Wait for the explosion... its louder than a stick of dynamite!!!!

Dry Ice really can be quite dangerous if not handled properly. It really doesn't "melt" in the way you would think ice would. It disapates and turns to gas....there for if you put dry ice in a walk in cooler and leave a substantial amount in the cooler it will actually produce a toxic gas that can suffocate you if you are closed in the cooler. And of course it will "burn" your skin if you come into contact with it for even a brief moment. So the answer is YES..you could stay DRY if you did take a bath with "melted" dry ice...just don't know how clean you'd be! LOL

plus you risk killing yourself with exposure to these highly toxic gases if not carefull
