The rate at which water freezes depends on the thermal conductivity of the container. Plastic is generally not very thermally conductive, whereas aluminum foil is more thermally conductive. Thus, as long as the foil is not very much thinner than the plastic, the water will freeze faster in the foil.

ice will melt faster wrapped in aluminum foil and plastic wrap when you put it outside
Ice melt lot faster on aluminum foil because it conduct more energy than plastic wrap:)
aluminum foil is not as good as plastic wrap because it is a good conductor and changes temperature to its surroundings faster than plastic wrap.
~Ceppwo The purpose of plastic wrap and aluminum foil is for food, it helps the food to stay good, without the plastic wrap and aluminum foil, it would be harder for us to keep it good, and with out it, the food would mold faster . . . so there's your answer:)
Aluminum foil will transfer cold better than plastic therefore making what you wrapped colder, faster. It also works in reverse, the item wrapped in aluminum will remain colder longer than in plastic.
aluminum foil melt butter faster than a spoon because aluminum foil collects heat faster than a spoon

No. Aluminum will degrade faster than most metals, especially if it is left in salt water, such as at the bottom of the ocean. This is true. Aluminum foil is not biodegradable. your welcome, : )

Plastic!!!!!!!!!! Aluminum recycles, but most plastics do not.
aluminium foil. that's easy
ice wrapped in aluminum foil
The aluminum foil is less dense than the water which makesit float. Aluminum foil is not less dense than water. It is more dense. The reason that aluminum foil floats is that the surface tension of the water will hold the sheet of foil. If you still think that the aluminum foil is less dense than water, try floating a roll of foil in a bucket.
Aluminum foil because the foil is like metal. Metal contracts heat
Me personally I would say that plastic wrap keeps things colder because it keeps things better contained than aluminum foil. See aluminum foil rips easily than plastic wrap. So I would say plastic wrap.

Aluminium foil or plastic wrap insulate the heat of the wrapped up material.
It would definitely have to be plastic wrap because plastic wrap is an insulator, which aluminum is not.
Actually, vinegar and saltwater makes it rust... it happened to me...
Heat transfer is more rapid through the foil but it's hard to keep it contained. A microwave in a plastic container is easier and faster and then simply pour excess back into container.
A thin aluminum foil can float on water if placed carefully flat on the surface because of the surface tension of water. If you were to submerge it, the foil will sink.
ice will last longer in plastic wrap because aluminum foil let heat through and it will over the ice and cause it to melt so it will be plastic wrap.
