Assuming all else is equal (no specialized snow/ice tires, equal driver reaction time etc.) it will take a lot longer. Up to ten times longer. If the ice is on a downward-sloping hill, there is a chance that a car cannot stop at all, until it slides to the bottom of the hill or hits an object along the way down.
Winter tires, either studded or not, SIGNIFICANTLY help on ice, especially studded. Although Illegal in some areas/states, studded tires make driving on snow/ice as effortless and safe as on dry asphalt. If you're ever driving on slippery roads and come upon a situation where you need to brake hard, remember that if you slam on the brakes you will slowly start stopping, but you will not be able to change direction--you will keep going straight until you stop. I found that many times it's safer to not stop, and simply turn your car to the left or right (which is much easier/faster to do than coming to a complete stop), and simply go around the obstacle that would otherwise force you to stop. If you're at a busy intersection, this might not be good advice, but I'd still rather slide my car into a ditch alongside the road than rear-end someone and have my insurance rates raised.

Why does a moving truck takes a much longer time to stop than that taken by a car when brakes are applied to both?
The reason that it takes a moving truck a much longer time to stop than it takes a car to stop when the brakes are applied on both is because the truck weighs more. The more mass a vehicle has the longer it will take to stop.

What take longer to stop than a car traveling at same speed?
Anything with greater mass (weight) than that car.
Will it take longer for a train or a car traveling at 100 miles per hour to stop?
A train
Do large trucks take longer to stop than a car traveling at the same speed?
Yes. Because the truck is heavier.
Why do buses take so long to come to bus stops?
The constant bus stops they have to stop at makes it take considerably longer than by car.
What happens if up you stop paying your car loan and move to a different state?
It is a felony if you take the car across state lines and you are no longer paying on your loan.
When driving at 55 mph how long does it take to come to a complete stop?
Depend on what vehicle you are driving. A large vehicle will take longer to stop than a small sports car. The average car will take about 190 feet which includes reaction time. This will take about 8.5 seconds.
Does the heater work without a thermostat?
eventually, but it will take much longer for the engine to heat up, thus taking much longer to get heat inside of the car.
When raining does it take 2 to 3 times longer to stop your vechile?
yes that is true. The water makes the car less stable.
Why does a moving ship take longer time to stop than taken by a car when brakes are applied to both?
Ship doesn't have brakes, it has to use reverse! But in any case, the reason a ship takes longer to stop than a car is that is has more momentum. Think of momentum as something that tells you how hard it will be to stop an object. More momentum means it will be harder to stop. Momentum is equal to the mass of the object times it velocity or speed. So a ship has a lot more mass that a car and takes longer to stop.
A truck takes what percent longer to stop than a car?
75
