By Ice Particle, I assume you mean the smallest unit of ice that is still ice. That's called a Meson. A Mesons is one type of Hardon; the other is Baryon. Baryons are found primarily in steam.
A meson is the basic building block of ice molecules. It is composed of a quark and an anti quark. Quarks have properties like spin, charge, top/bottom, flavor and strangeness. The interaction of these properties is what gives each meson its unique characteristics. For example, a Strange and Charming meson might become a snowflake.
Based on this, you might think that a quark is the smallest unit of ice. It's not. A single quark isn't ice any more than an Oxygen atom is Air. In order for it to behave like ice, a quark needs to be part of a meson.
If this answer is confusing, be sure to check the Wikipedia articles on Mesons and quarks. I found them very informative.

What is the particle theory of salt and ice?
Salt will give ice the ability to get colder than freezing. It lowers the freezing point.
Is the average kinetic energy of particle in a block of ice at 0 degrees the same as or different from the average kinetic energy of the particle in a gas-filles container at 0 degrees Celsius?
the same
This floating chunk of ice is called?
Chunks do not really mean something very small like most people may think,it could be a large particle or huge mass. Floating chunks of ice from ice sheets or ice shelves (land ice) are called "ICEBERGS", while large areas of floating sea ice are called "ICE FLOES".
What is the precipitation like on Uranus?
Weathering on Uranus is the wear away of the ice...
Can The mass of Saturn be determined by applying Kepler's 3rd Law to the motion of a single ice particle in its rings?
Can you repeat the question in English, please? XD
What has the author Rosemary M Dyer written?
Rosemary M Dyer has written: 'The classification of ambiguous ice particle shadowgraphs by consensus' -- subject(s): Ice crystals, Classification, Particle size determination
Most of the ice in the comets nucleus vaporizes leaving only small what?
particle
Using the particle model explain what happens to water as it is gradually heated and changes from ice to steam?
the ice melts and condenses into steam
How does water changes it ice?
Water changes into ice by solidification, aka freezing. When water changes into ice, the liquid particles are reorganizing themselves to become a solid particle.
How would a water particle get from the Arctic Circle as ice to the French Alps?
I drank it and peed it out.

Do the water particles just disappear in melting ice?
no.the particle never disappear,the water just change its properties of particles when melting to ice
Is crushed ice a pure substance or a mixture and it is a homogenous or heterogenous?
Ice is solid H2O so it is a pure substance, thus homogenous, particle size is irrelevant
Is the average kinetic energy of particle in a block of ice at 0 degrees the same as or different from the average kinetic energy of the particle in a gas-filles container at 0 degrees Celsius?
the same
What is one kind of particle that is a strong candidate for dark matter?
The only particle that we have observed that may be a candidate are neutrinos. Several experiments are being conducted at the southern polar ice cap to see if this is a possibility or not.
What is the phrase 'ice swan' when translated from English to Japanese?
'Ice swan' may be translated as氷の白鳥 (koori no hakuchou) in Japanese.氷 (koori) - iceの (no) - particle白鳥 (hakuchou) - swan
