Is the temperature of ice stays 0 degrees when it melts so it is not gaining heat true?

no it is not true. The difference between ice and water is temperature. Water turns to ice at 0 Celsius, and back to water above 0. In Fahrenheit the freezing point is 32, and will melt at anything above.

What happens to the mass of a substance as the temperature is increased?
The temperature of a substance has no effect on its mass.UNLESS ... part of it evaporates and blows away, or melts in a puddle and runs off the edge of the table.As long as all of the substance stays there, its mass doesn't change, no matter how hot or cold it gets.
Why does temperature remains constant during the process of melting or boiling?
This is because the heat supplied to the substance is used up in the overcoming the inter molecular forces and therefore , it does not show up as a rise in the temperature. Temperature stays constant until all the interactions are broken.
Why does the temperature at melting water stays at 0 degrees?
Heat is energy. When heating water from solid to liquid, the change in temperature pauses at 0 degrees Celsius because the heat is then being used to break the intermolecular bonds between the water molecules to form a liquid. When cooling, the energy is being taken from the kinetic energy to convert to creating intermolecular bonds.
Is Temperature the flow of energy from warm matter to cool matter?
No, certainly not.Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a body. The temperature of a thing is how strongly the little bits of that thing are shaking about. If they shake hard enough, meaning that the thing is hot enough, they shake the bits apart, so that the thing melts or evaporates.If I take something hot and put it against something cold, then the shaking of the molecules of the hot matter jostle the molecules of the cold matter, passing on some of their energy. To us that is a flow of heat energy from the hot matter to the cold.Get that straight! It is a flow of energy, not of temperature, and the temperature is not the flow!But, you say, suppose I take 10 grams of water at 95 degrees and put them against 10 grams of water at 35 degrees, I will get 20 grams at 65 degrees, right? How does that differ from a flow of temperature?Temperature does not flow; heat does. I chose that example carefully to make it look like a flow of temperature. Think of a different example: suppose that we put 10 grams of mercury at 95 degrees against 10 grams of water at 35 degrees; then we would get the whole lot at just about 37 degrees instead of 65 degrees, because it takes about 30 times as much heat to increase the temperature of one gram of water by one degree as it takes to heat one gram of mercury by one degree.Now, what happened to that "flow of temperature"?Get the picture?Heat will flow until the temperatures are the same all right, but the heat still is the only thing that flows.But, you say, isn't the temperature itself the flow?No, because if I have water at 95 degrees and I don't have it touching anything at a different temperature, then there is no flow of heat (or energy, if you like; same thing in our examples) and yet the temperature stays at 95. If the temperature were the flow, then zero flow would mean zero temperature, right? And do we get zero temperature? Not a bit of it; we get 95 degrees!Is this helping you get it straight? If not, ask again.
If the amount of moisture stays the samewhat happens to the relative humidity when the air temperature decreases?
relative humidity increases. at a lower temperature, the air can hold less water vapour.
Why is the temperature of ice stays 0 degrees when it melts so it is not gaining heat not true?
not true
Why does ice melt when left on the table?
The table is in a room that has a temperature higher than 0 degrees Lower than 0 it stays as ice; higher than 0 it melts
Why does a ice cube stay at 0 degrees even though it is being heated up?
Latent heat. Ice absorbs heat when it melts, but it still stays at 0 degrees until its all liquid, then its temperature rises.
What is the temperature inside a spaceship?
I read that the Space Station stays at about 75 degrees Fahrenheit
What is the solution for a 2004 Chevy Impala temperature gauge that stays on 260 degrees and car is not overheating?
get a new temperature sensor.
What does it mean if your temperature is 96.4?
If your body temperature is 96.4, it is on the low side. Normally your body's temperature stays between 97.5 - 98.8 degrees.
What stays the same when ice melts?
Mass of water
What is Aruba's temperature?
Aruba's temperature stays around 82 degrees Fahrenheit[28 degrees Celsius]. The temperature is moderated by trade winds from the Atlantic Ocean. Aruba has a tropical marine climate that's attractive all year.
What is the boiling point of chlorine at room temperature?
Chlorine is a gas at room temperature. Boiling point of it is 34.6 degrees Celsius. It stays as diatomic molecules.
What are the temperatures at the South Pole?
The temperature at the South Pole is about 30 degrees F colder than the temperature at the North Pole, because the South Pole sits on a continent -- Antarctica -- 98% of which is covered with an ice sheet.
What freezers will work outside?
Any freezer will work outside as long as the temperature stays above 0 degrees F.
How can melted ice be colder than ice cube?
Ice melts and forms at zero degrees Celsius or thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit. When an ice cube melts, the puddle forming beneath it may be the same temperature or a degree warmer than the ice cube.
