What happens when they play dry ice in a pool?



Have you heard of dry ice? Many people think that it is also made of water, but it is quite the opposite ... There is no drop of water in this chemical substance. For those who do not know very well what it is, let's explain: dry ice is nothing more, nothing less, than carbon dioxide in the solid state. Yes, exactly ... the very carbon dioxide we (CO2) exhale during our breathing, as well as the gas released by vehicles that have combustion engines.

To get the gas to freeze, it is necessary to reach -78ºC. What's more curious about this, perhaps because we're not accustomed to it, is that when dry ice rocks are exposed to room temperature, they do not melt like ordinary ice, and they go straight from solid to gaseous, and that's why it's Something so beautiful and different to watch.


It turns out that dry ice can be even more useful than the conventional one, since the temperature needed for its freezing is much smaller than that of water, if it is even more efficient in preserving frozen foods, not to mention that it has not yet done all That mess of water. Perhaps, one of the only negative points of the substance, since it is not as toxic as it seems, is that if handled improperly, it can cause severe freeze burns, so it is recommended that gloves should be worn and skinned In direct contact.



A lot of people use dry ice even as a form of fun. You must have seen somewhere, even if it was through some video on the internet, drinks that had something making out of the glass an intense "smoke." This is the result of the contact of the ice and the liquid of the drink, the only recommendation is not to put it in the mouth, after all, it can end up getting hurt. It is also used in many shows and theater performances.

After you understand just a little how this incredible solid form of carbon dioxide works, what do you think would happen if someone threw rocks from that ice in a pool? Specifically, 40 pounds of dry ice? Well, that was exactly the experiment done by the Secret Zone channel.



For a swimming pool, this would undoubtedly be enormous and enough to cause a true visual spectacle ... Above we can get a little bit bigger notion of what happened. Notice the smoke coming out of the pool ... Is not that amazing? You just can not take a dive, since your body would surely break!

The ice was able to completely transform the environment into the boy's house, which was filled with dense smoke. It can even be confused with snow if you see the scene without paying close attention. Below we can see other cuts of the scene, it is really impressive!



And then guys, what did you guys think? The scenes are really incredible, are not they? If you would like to see the complete video of their experience, just click here. Share your opinion there with us, by the comments!
