How does a change in temperature affect the melting of ice?

A change in temperature affects the melting of ice by either speeding up or slowing down the process. When the temperature increases, the ice absorbs heat energy and melts faster. Conversely, when the temperature decreases, the ice absorbs less heat energy and melts slower.


When ice cream melts does the mass increase if the ice cream freezes?

decreasing because in order to melt it has to be in a hotter surrounding than used to. so when that happens it starts losing its shape and melts than after a few hours it will be a warm liquidy subbsatance.

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.
