the ice cube's temperature is higher than the surrounding water, causing heat transfer from the water to the ice cube. This heat transfer raises the ice cube's temperature, melting it into water until both reach thermal equilibrium.

When you place an ice cube on a table, the thermal energy will move from the ice cube to the table. Heat will transfer from the ice cube, which is at a lower temperature, to the table, which is at a higher temperature, until both reach thermal equilibrium.

you get elmers wood glue.Then stack the cubes up. make each cube a little off to the side each time. Stack until all walls reach the top.

The answer is that the system is in 'equilibrium'. More exactly thermal equilibrium. Ice and Water can both form at 0C and 1 ATM. When two things are touching, they are at equilibrium with each other. Since the ice cube has had enough time to melt, it has had enough time to reach equilibrium with the water and is at 0C.
