Any temperature above 32.0F. However, it will require more heat to actually sublimate the ice into water.

Which will melt first an ice cube or an ice cube with salt on it and why?
Ice cube with salt. The salt disrupts the lattice formation in the ice, lowering the melting temperature. As the salt melts ice, the surface area exposed to the salt increases, further perpetuationg the reaction.
What is a hypothesis for what is the best way to keep an ice cube from melting?
One way to keep an ice cube from melting away is if you keep it in ice water.
Do different containers have an effect on the speed of melting an ice cube?
Yes it does.
How long does it take a ice cube to melt in water?
That depends on (a) the size of the ice-cube, (b) the temperature of the water, and (c) the surrounding temperature.
what materials keep ice cube from melting?
saw dust aluminum foil and copper
Why if you left an ice cube and salt at the sun the ice cube melts and the salt doesnt?
Because the melting temperature of the ice is 32°F and the melting temperature of the salt is 1,474°F.
The temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid is called the what?
Simply, the melting point. Think of an ice cube. The melting point is the temperature at which the ice cube MELTS into a liquid.
Does an ice cube melt quicker as it gets smaller?
Melting of an ice cube mainly depends on the temperature of surrounding. If the larger ice cube is put at 50 degrees Celsius and small one at 25 degree Celsius the large ice cube will melt faster than the smaller one. Ice cube draws energy from the surrounding which causes it to melt and so temperature of surrounding is very important
What is the regular melting rate of ice cubes?
this will depend on the temperature of the atmosphere the ice cube is in and the surface area to volume ratio of the ice cube amongst other things....
How is melting a sugar cube different from melting a ice cube?
Due to their varying melting points (ice 32 and sugar 366°)
Can you keep a ice cube from melting?
you can put sawdust on the ice cube
What is the temperature of a ice cube when it is mealting?
as you might be knowing that freezing and melting point of ice(water) is same the only difference is that when water freezes it gives out its heat whereas while melting it absorbs the heat . so when the ice is melting its temperature remains zero degree .
Ice cube turning to liquid water in the sun?
Ice turn in water only if the temperature is over 0 0C.
Which will melt first an ice cube or an ice cube with salt on it and why?
Ice cube with salt. The salt disrupts the lattice formation in the ice, lowering the melting temperature. As the salt melts ice, the surface area exposed to the salt increases, further perpetuationg the reaction.
How is melting sugar different from melting an ice cube?
Because melting sugar turns color to form caramel. i.e. it has changed and specifically it has undergone a CHEMICAL CHANGE (Or chemical reaction). When melting ice, no chemical reaction occurs, and so it is just a PHYSICAL CHANGE.
How do you keep an ice cube from melting for up to 8 hours?
how do i keep and ice cube from melting with out foam for 8 hours
Does color effect which an ice cube melts?
The rate in which an ice cube melts is dependent on the temperature of the outside air. The hotter it is the faster ice will melt. The color of a cup or dish will not affect the melting process.
