Water ice would remain solid in liquid ammonia, because the temperature of the ammonia is well below 0 degrees Celsius, the melting point of ice. At normal atmospheric pressure, ammonia is liquid below minus 33.34 degrees C.

Why is ammonia gas used for making ice in ice factories?

Ammonia gas is used in ice factories because it has excellent heat-absorbing properties when it undergoes a phase change from gas to liquid, making it an efficient refrigerant. By circulating ammonia gas in a closed system, heat is absorbed from the surroundings, leading to a decrease in temperature and the formation of ice.


How does Ice Melt work to melt ice?

Ice melt works by lowering the freezing point of water to turn solid ice into liquid water. It contains chemicals such as calcium chloride or sodium chloride, which break down the bonds between water molecules and ice, accelerating the melting process. This allows the ice to melt faster and more effectively, especially in colder temperatures.


What happens to ice when placed in a cup of liquid water?

The ice will begin to melt as the surrounding water transfers heat to the ice, causing it to raise in temperature until it reaches its melting point. Once the ice reaches this point, it will start to melt and change from a solid to a liquid.


How long it takes ice to melt in orange juice?

The time it takes for ice to melt in orange juice will vary depending on factors such as the temperature of the orange juice, the size of the ice cubes, and the environment. In general, ice will melt faster in a warmer liquid like orange juice compared to a colder liquid. It can take anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour for ice to fully melt in orange juice.


Does ice go from solid to liquid to gas?

Yes. Ice can melt from a solid to a liquid and then the water (liquid) evaporates into a gas and goes up into the air.
