No, although it may seem counter intuitive, freezing is an exothermic process.
In order to go from a liquid to a solid phase a substance must lose energy. This energy is released to the surroundings.
It is not an electrothermic reaction but a simple change of phase from liquid to solid.
No. The phase change requires adding heat, so melting ice cubes is an endothermic reaction.
Define endothermic....
endothermic reaction. ice - cream melts because it absorbs heat from the surrounding thus increasing its temperature. exothermic reaction is when a substance reacts with something, thus releasing heat.
Exothermic reactions release energy, it often produces an increase in temperature, and in this reaction, the bonds energies of the reactants are less then the energies of the products (meaning it is greater when it is on the reactant side).
Dry ice evaporating is endothermic-->+DeltaH A sparkler burning is exothermic--->-DeltaH The reaction that occurs in a chemical cold pack often used to ice athletic injuries is endothermic--->+DeltaH
No. The phase change requires adding heat, so melting ice cubes is an endothermic reaction.
No. It is a physical change.
Some examples of exothermic reactions are melting ice cubes, water evaporation, and baking bread. An endothermic reaction occurs when heat is absorbed from the surrounding.
Melting ice

False.The original answer (now deleted ) said that the melting of ice is an endothermic reaction.If you need to convince yourself of this, take half a glass of water at room temperature. Put in a thermometer, wait a while, then record the temperature.Now add a few ice cubes; wait a while, then check the temperature again. If the melting of ice were an exothermic process, the water would then be warmer. Since you will actually find the water to be cooler, it is an endothermic process.
No, it is a physical change, not a chemical reaction.

because it is an endothermic reaction.
Scientifically it is an endothermic reaction. Where ice absorbs surrounding heat to form a liquid.
Well, the general way of making ice cubes is filling ice cube trays with water and putting them in a freezer, or you can buy a fridge that has an ice cube machine to make ice cubes for you.
Endothermic- a change in which energy is taken in. The melting of ice is an endothermic change. Ice absorbs thermal energy from its surroundings when it melts. That's why you pack drinks and food in an ice-filled picnic cooler to keep them cold. So yes an ice cube is endothermic.
