Depends on the starting temperature of the liquid being frozen, the melting point of the liquid being frozen, and the temperature of the freezer being used to freeze the liquid.

Of course it depends upon the temperature of the water being placed in the ice trays, and the temperature of the freezer into which the trays are placed ... but mine, room-temp tap water into a stack of 4 ice trays ... about 10 hours.

Is a ice cubes a renewable or nonrenewable resource?

renewable because when it melts it can freez many more times


When you make ice cubes at home does it cost money?

Yes, making ice cubes at home does cost money. The cost would come from the electricity used by the freezer to freeze the water into ice cubes. However, the cost is usually minimal compared to other household expenses.


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!


What is the difference between ice cubes made of distilled water and ice cubes made of tap water?

Ice cubes made of distilled water are purer and may appear clearer because they do not contain impurities found in tap water. Tap water contains minerals and impurities that may affect the taste of the ice cubes.


Is water with ice cubes is heterogeneous?

Yes, water with ice cubes is heterogeneous because it is a combination of two distinct phases - liquid water and solid ice. The ice cubes do not completely dissolve in the water, leading to a visible separation of the two components.

What if ice cubes are put in kerosene?

If ice cubes are put in kerosene, the ice will melt due to the higher temperature of the kerosene. Kerosene has a lower freezing point than water, so it will not freeze the water in the ice cubes. The ice will eventually melt and mix with the kerosene, but they will not chemically react with each other.
