Ice have a tetrahydral shape and this shape causes greater empty spaces in ice because of these empty spaces, ice usually occupies 9% more volume than water.Empty spaces reduces the density of ice and ice starts to float on the surface of water.
When you place an ice cube on a table, the thermal energy will move from the ice cube to the table. Heat will transfer from the ice cube, which is at a lower temperature, to the table, which is at a higher temperature, until both reach thermal equilibrium.
Let V be the volume of the ice cube and U be the volume of the cube immersed in water density of water at 4oC = 0.998 g/cm³ density of ice at 0oC = 0.917 g/cm³ Weight of the ice cube = volume * density * g = 0.917*V*g [N] Buoyancy on the ice cube = volume * density * g = 0.988*U*g [N] Apply Newton's 3rd Law of Motion to the floating ice cube: 0.917*V*g = 0.988*U*g U/V = 0.928 = 92.8% Hence, 92.8% of the ice cube is immersed in water, or 7.2% of the ice cube is above water. The answer in percent can be converted to a fraction as follows: 7.2/100. =========================
An ice cube is solid, and contains little gas although there could be air bubbles inside the ice.
It depends on the size of the ice cube and amount of table salt.
Temperature affects an ice cube by either melting it or freezing it. If the temperature is warmer than the ice cube's melting point, the ice will melt into water. If the temperature is colder than the ice cube's freezing point, the water will freeze and the ice cube will grow.
Your hand is much warmer than the table.

yes
The water level will decrease slightly when the ice cube melts, but the overall volume will remain constant. The melted ice will just fill the space that the ice cube previously occupied, so the glass will not overflow.

Its actually quite simple. The answer would be Anomalous expansion of Water, which means that the volume the Ice cubes are consuming in a glass filled upto the brim is more than water alone. When Ice melts and comes back into water form, it uses lesser volume (space) in the glass. Hence it does not allow the glass to overflow as the person pouring into the glass had poured in keeping into view the level of the ice (which uses more volume).
Depends on the temperature of the room the table is in. If the temperature is below 32 degrees F then nothing will happen to the ice cube. If above 32 deg, the ice cube will melt. The higher above 32 the temperature is determines how long it will take to melt completely.

Its called evaporation
The ice cube will melt and turn into water as it absorbs heat from the surroundings.
