Does the eviorment effect how an ice cube melt?

Yes, the warmer the air temperature of the environment the quicker the ice cube melts. Also, ice in a warm fluid environment will melt quicker than ice at the equivalent air temperature.


What would happen if ice water was left out for hours?

well, the ice in it would melt, and the water would get warmer if it was in a hot climate,(a temperature warmer than the ice water) and if it was in a cold climate, (a temperature colder than the ice water) it would freeze or get colder.

If a test tube is full of water at 20 digrese in time would the water continue to get colder?

The future temperature of the water depends upon the surrounding air's temperature. So if the air around the test tube is colder than 20 degrees, then the water will get colder. If the air temperature is warmer than 20 degrees then the water will get warmer.


What is one reason that room temperature water boils faster than cold water?

When the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit is it warmer or colder that the freezing temperature of water?

The freezing temperature of water is 0 degrees celsius or 32 degrees fahrenheit so it is colder than the freezing temperature of water.


What causes well water to be cooler?

I would assume it has to do with being out of the sun, seeing that if snow is in the sun it melts quicker, so if water is in the sun it'll be warmer than water in a well.


Why are bodies of water sometimes warmer than the temperature on land?

Water is slower to absorb and release heat than the surrounding area. That is why water is typically cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. A lot of this also depends on the geogrpahy of the area.


Why water evaporates on a hot day quicker than a cold day?

The rate of evaporation depends on the temperature.
