It will start to sublimate, as the material gets heated.
An object composed of dust, ice, and rock which orbits the Sun is called a comet.

A comet.
A comet is predominantly cold in nature. The surface temperature of a comet is typically below freezing, as it is composed of ice, dust, and rock. However, as a comet nears the Sun, heat causes the ice to sublimate and release gas and dust particles, creating the visible coma and tail.

large chunks of ice and dust also orbit the sun
The frozen chunk of ice and dust from outside the solar system is called a comet. Comets are composed of ice, dust, and rocky material and originate from the outer regions of the solar system. When a comet approaches the Sun, the heat causes the ice to vaporize, creating a long tail that points away from the Sun.
Comet is a small balll from material like dust and ice that travels around the sun or orbits.
When a comet nears the sun, and begins to out-gas, solar wind pushes the particles away. as the comet nears the sun, more & more particles are emitted, and the tail grows.
The mass of ice and dust orbiting the sun.
A comet
As a comet nears the sun, solar radiation and solar wind cause the comet's icy nucleus to sublimate, releasing gas and dust into space. This forms a glowing coma around the nucleus, which can get pushed back by the solar wind to form a long tail that points away from the sun.
