Does ice cream melt quicker in the fridge or at room temperature?

Room temperature, because the fridge is colder so the temperature difference between the freezer and the fridge is not that much compared to the difference between the freezer and room temperature. Hope I helped.


How do you melt a ice cube?

Apply heat to quickly melt it, or leave out of the fridge to slowly melt it, or just get a hair dryer and melt it with it.


Why does ice often form on he outside of a glass beaker containing dry ice?

A beaker of Dry Ice will have VERY cold, glass walls. The moisture in the surrounding air comes into contact with the cold surfaces, condenses and freezes on them. Thus, your ice formation on the beaker.


Why does ice form on the outside of a beaker containing dry ice?

The air around the beaker is cooled by the intense cold of the dry ice, causing water vapor in the air to condense and freeze on the surface of the beaker. This results in the formation of ice on the outside of the beaker.


Why does ice-cream melt when left in the fridge?

It gets too warm.


Why does ice melt faster on counter top than in the fridge?

The temperature on the counter top is high compared to that inside a fridge. A high temperature usually makes ice to melt faster than a low one.


Why does ice melt outside a refrigerator?

Temperature is usually warmer outside of the fridge.


Where does the ice come from on the outside of the beaker?

The ice forms on the outside of the beaker when the cold content inside the beaker cools down the surrounding air, causing moisture in the air to condense and freeze on the outside of the beaker. This process is similar to how dew forms on grass in the early morning.
