Does energy flow into or out of water when it is turning into ice?

It must flow out, ice contains less energy than water.
You just have to remember that heat is energy, and all energy, no matter what form, eventually winds up as heat.
Take heat energy out of water, it gets cooler, and eventually freezes.
Add heat energy to ice, it first changes state to liquid, and then starts to get warmer.
Keep adding heat energy to it, it keeps getting warmer and warmer.
Keep additing heat energy to it, and eventually it changes state to gas ... called "steam".
Take heat energy out of the steam, it first changes state to liquid, then gets cooler.
etc. etc.

How will heat flow if an ice cube is dropped in boiling water?
Heat will flow from the boiling water into the ice cube.
What happens in terms of the tranfer of energy as heat when you hold a snowball in your hands?
Heat energy flows from the warmer (the hands in this case) to the cooler (the snowball). The flow of energy first raises the snowball's temperature (outer portion) to approximately zero degrees Celsius. Additional heat flow causes a phase change from snow (a form of ice) to water. This continues until all ice is converted. Further heat flow raises the temperature of any remaining water until it reaches skin temperature, when heat flow will cease.
Which form of energy is solar energy?
it a solar energy is wind,ice, or water
Does freezing gain thermal energy?
Yes. When ice is converted to water, thermal energy is required. When the water is converted back to ice, the same amount of thermal energy is released.
In which direction does heat flow in a glass with ice and a liquid at room temperature?
Heat flows from the water to the ice.
How does a change on thermal energy cause matter to change from one state to another?
It causes matter to change by turning the water into gas which is vaporization, turning water into ice.
When you hold a piece of ice in your handin which direction does heat energy folw?
Heat energy would flow from the hand to the ice, unless the hand is colder than the ice, in which case the heat energy would flow from the ice to the hand.
What will be the flow of heat when you drop a block of ice in boiling water?
The heat will flow from the boiling water to the block of ice.
How will heat flow if an ice cube is dropped in boiling water?
Heat will flow from the boiling water into the ice cube.
How does ice turn to water?
When heated, energy is added causing the particles to move faster and loosen bonds therefore turning the solid state into water.
What do you call ice turning to water?
melting
Which agent can create an opening in rock formation over time?
ice flow my niga
Can ice turn into water vapor without turning into water?
never
Why ice flow on water?
because it cannot talk to the water.
How a change in thermal energy causes matter to change from one state to another give two examples?
An increase in thermal energy gives particles more kinetic energy, which causes them to vibrate more. As they vibrate more, the volume they take up increases.For example, when ice water is heated up, the molecules spread out, take up a greater space, and so the result is liquid H2O.The reverse scenario - when gaseous water ('steam') is cooled, due to a reduced level of thermal energy - is that the particles will vibrate less and the substance will contract. The steam will condense into liquid water.

Why do chemicals work well to melt ice and prevent ice from forming?
They raise the melting point of water - preventing the water turning to ice.
