putting ice into water: the ice and water are in contact with each other over a large surface area this allows more efficient heat transfer.

putting a bucket of water into ice: Energy in the form of heat must pass through the bucket to the ice which is more difficult.

Also the is less contact area with the solid ice sitting against the bucket than if water was in contact with the bucket. This is why when u make an ice bath to cool something down in you add water, it increases the contact area.

Putting ice into water will cool water faster because the ice has a higher heat capacity compared to the water. When ice is added to water, it absorbs heat from the water, leading to a faster cooling process. On the other hand, putting a bucket of water into ice will cool the water, but it will take longer since the heat transfer occurs through conduction from the water to the ice.

Why doesn't the vapour created from sublimating dry ice change colour if dye is added?

The vapor created is not from the dry ice itself, nor is it from the water bucket you're probably putting it in. The vapor comes from water vapor in the air that is condensing because of the cool air. It's like what happens when you breathe on a cool mirror.

It will cool it down faster, but the outside is likely to appear cool and the centre will still be hot, so if you are putting a filling inside it may not be wise to rush the process.
