depends on the temperature of the air/water.
air does not melt.
the water may be a warmer temperature than the air. why does ice melt faster in water than in air
Water /)/) (-.-) (")(")
if it is hot water it tends to melt faster but if it is cold water it wont melt quickly
Ice can melt faster in air compared to being in a sealed container, as the air can transfer heat more efficiently than the container. Factors such as temperature, humidity, and air circulation can affect the rate of ice melting in the air.
It depends if its hot water but it will still melt faster in cold water tha the air.
Assuming that the air and water in your question have the same temperature, ice would melt faster in the water, as there is a greater degree of heat transferance in water due to its greater density.
Most likely hot water.
i think in water. warm water
The melting rate of an ice depends on the temperature of the surrounding. If the temperature is higher in the surrounding then the ice will melt at a faster rate and if the temperature is low then it will take more time to melt. The process of heat exchange is important whether it is air or water.
The temperature of the water and the temperature of the air would have to be factors in the answer. EDIT: Assuming the air and water are the same temperature, it would melt much faster in water. The thermal conduction is much higher.
