unless the wood is hot/warm, it most likely not melt the ice.
Salt makes Ice Melt Faster
it depends on the temperature inside or outside
Two identical pieces of ice, each placed on identically sized and shaped blocks of plastic and wood at the same temperature, will melt at a rate proportional to the thermal conductivity and the thermal mass of the object they are on. Generally, wood is a better thermal insulator than plastic. Short answer: wood.
It would take longer because wood is an insulator, but it all depends on how much energy is absorbed by it's surroundings. If it's warm out, more energy can be used to melt the ice, if it is colder, then vice versa. If it is below freezing outside, then obviously it won't melt.
Wood doesn't melt.
Wood has characteristics of an insulator. Every material, such as glass, steel, rubber or cotton, will either have characteristics that either allows it to transfer Heat or to restrict heat. This is its heat transfer characteristic. Every material will transfer Heat in various rates. So if you place ICE in a box made of ice, it will melt slower than if the ice is left out by itself. The wood slows the outside heat from getting to the ice and causing it to melt.
yes
it will become water If you melt an ice cube it will melt
no, but ice melt is a salt
To melt ice
Ice melt is made up of chemicals that are intended to melt ice. These chemicals often include salt as well.
No garlic powder can not melt ice.
