Ice melts and forms at zero degrees Celsius or thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit. When an ice cube melts, the puddle forming beneath it may be the same temperature or a degree warmer than the ice cube.

When an ice cube melts does it have the same mass as before?

Yes, the mass of the melted ice cube remains the same as the original ice cube. When ice melts, it undergoes a phase change from a solid to a liquid, but the total amount of matter remains constant.


Does melting ice make the water around it warmer or colder?

makes it colder since the ice that is melting is taking the heat in from the water around it to cause it to melt that is why you put ice in your ice water and it gets colder


In which liquids will an ice cube float?

in water or anything which is denser than ice


Which is colder ice cold or rice cold?

Ice cold is colder than rice cold. Ice is typically at or below freezing temperatures, while rice is usually stored at room temperature or slightly cooler.


What causes alcohol to melt ice cubes?

There is nothing special about alcohol -- anything that is in contact with ice that is warmer than 0 °C will melt ice cubes (as long as the mass of warm object is comparable to the mass of the ice -- obviously a cup of warm water won't melt the ice on an entire lake for instance).When two objects of different temperatures are put in contact (as when you put ice cubes in a drink), the warmer one will always transfer heat to the cooler one. If the warmer one transfers enough heat to melt the ice cubes, then they melt! If not, they might just partially melt.It's actually possible to add ice cubes to alcohol and not have them melt at all! The freezing point of alcohol is well below 0 °C, and so you can have liquid alcohol be much colder than frozen ice cubes. If you add an ice cube to alcohol that is colder than the ice cube, the ice cube will be cooled by the alcohol!

How does temperature affect an ice cube?

Temperature affects an ice cube by either melting it or freezing it. If the temperature is warmer than the ice cube's melting point, the ice will melt into water. If the temperature is colder than the ice cube's freezing point, the water will freeze and the ice cube will grow.

Why is an ice cube surrounded by clouds?

An ice cube is surrounded by clouds because the temperature of ice is colder than its surrounding temperature. The "clouds" are water vapor that condensate when it comes in contact with the cold air.
