Gas does not directly cause Ice to melt.
However if you are talking about glaciers then the gas Carbon Dioxide (CO2) causes the earths atmosphere to heat up (because it traps more of the Sun's heat) and this causes glaciers to melt - because the Earths climate is hotter.

What from lemon juice causes ice to melt the fastest?
The rime
How do different concentrations of salt and sugar solutions affect the melting rate of ice?
Salt makes ice melt quicker and suger causes the ice to melt slower.
What makes Dry Ice melt?
Dry ice doesn't melt, it changes from a solid state, to a gas state, that's why it's called DRY ICE, there is no known way that it melts.
Why does salt melt ice faster than sugar or sand?
Salt. Salt dissolves in water, and causes the freezing point to fall; this causes the ice to melt. Sugar does not have this effect, and chalk doesn't dissolve in water.
What happens when pressure is applied to ice crystals?
Increased pressure causes temperature to rise, enhancing ice crystal melt.
What causes polar ice to melt?
Melting of the ice caps Global warming causes the ice caps to melt. As they melt, the moving water corrodes at the remaining ice, speeding up the process.
What is the name of the process that causes ice to melt?
Application of heat makes ice melt, so global warming makes lots of ice melt.
What from lemon juice causes ice to melt the fastest?
The rime
What causes ice on a pond to melt?
Sunlight melts it away! The rays the sun casts is enough to melt ice. also the season's are changing
Why does Ice packed in sawdust not melt quickly?
the sawdust acts as insulation isolating the ice from warm air
How do different concentrations of salt and sugar solutions affect the melting rate of ice?
Salt makes ice melt quicker and suger causes the ice to melt slower.
Upon heating ice can melt and turn into a gas this is an example off?
The change of ice to a liquid is melting; the direct change of ice to a gas is sublimation.
Why does a ice cube melt in a glass of water?
Because water is warmer than 32 degrees and ice is colder. Setting the glass at room temperature causes the ice to melt.
Causes for the ice caps to melt?
Temperature and pressure is the answer. Also, a piece of ice will melt faster when there is more surface area like with a hollow ice cube.
How does ice to water to water vapor?
Heat causes the ice to melt into water and the water evaporates into vapor.
What causes Pepsi to melt ice slower?
All sodas do if you don't put enough ice. They are carbonated.
How causes steel to melt ice?
There is no inherent property of steel that causes it to melt ice. Ice will melt if it comes in contact with something that is warm enough to melt it, regardless of what it is made of. One possible advantage that steel has is that, like any metal, it is a good conductor of heat. This would allow it to transfer heat more quickly than a nonmetallic substance.
