If you e-filed your return and are expecting a refund, you should get it pretty quickly. The Internal Revenue Service says most refunds are issued in less than 21 days. That's assuming your tax return is complete, has no errors and is not affected by identity theft or fraud. So if it's been more than 21 days and you haven't seen any sign of it, the IRS gives you several ways to track it down.
How long does dry ice last? The question of how long does dry ice lasts does depend somewhat on the purpose it is being used for. As a general rule, it will last for 18-24 hours in a cooler or ice chest, 3-5 hours outside and 15-45 minutes when reduced to a liquid form. If you are storing it in a cooler, make sure it is not an airtight one as when the ice melts, the gases could cause the cooler to burst!
If you hold a piece of dry ice too long, it feels like it is burning your skin. Your skin isn't actually burning, though. What is actually happening is that the dry ice is freezing your skin. The dry ice is carbon dioxide that has been frozen at -110 Â°F (-79 Â°C). That's why it hurts when you hold it too long, because your skin is starting to freeze from its cold. Freezing skin is a bad thing, so I recommend not letting dry ice âburnâ you. The reason that freezing and burning can feel the same is because touching things that are very cold can do the same thing to your cells as touching things that are very hot.
