Yes, because butter is melting
When a solid melts, it is due to an increase in thermal energy to the temperature at which it melts.
When you add thermal energy to matter, either the temperature will increase, or there will be a change in the state (phase) of matter, for example when ice melts.
A solid melts when it gains enough thermal energy.
Nothing.
The thermal energy of the water increases as it melts, changing from a solid (ice) to liquid water. For a solid to melt, it is necessary for it to absorb energy from its surroundings.

Thermal (heat).
It either gets hotter, or it melts.
It's vibrates and then melts
Yes because when the thermal energy of a substance increases, it's particles move faster. If the thermal energy of a solid increases, it's particles melts into a liquid. The liquid state of a substance always has a higher thermal energy than it's solid state
The surrounding substances, especially air.
