What is melting ice cubes?
An ice cube melts from the outside layer in. As the outer layer of molecules gains energy it starts to vibrate and moves from solid to liquid phase, sloughing off and allowing the next layer to undergo the same process.
How are ice storms formed?
Ice storms are formed when a layer of warm air is between two layers of cold air. Precipitation that is frozen melts when it is falling into the layer of warm air and then it refreezes in the cold layer above the ground.
A liquid changing to a solid?
it is water iwould call this a ice cube
What layer of the atmosphere does a shooting star occur?
The mesosphere is where meteorites burn up. Most people call them shooting stars.
Why do ice cubes stick together in the freezer?
Answering the question and the question in the details below:Ice cubes stick together because the surface of ice is liquid-like and when the ice cubes touch, the surfaces freeze together. For more background, please view the answer to "Why is ice slippery?"The following answer gives some scientific details pertaining to ice:Water freezes at 0 degrees celsius, but the ice that comes out of your freezer is much colder.From the moment you put ice into water, the water gets colder and the ice gets warmer until there is one uniform temperature and all ice has turned to water. You can imagine how if the ice were cold enough, it could freeze all the water.Two cubes of ice at say -10C would easily freeze a thin layer of cold water surrounding them before they get down to the temperature at which they begin to melt.BUT I have noticed that often cubes that are half-melted will still stick together. How can this be? If it has been shrinking, the outer layer should be in the process of melting and therefore not cold enough to freeze its surroundings. I do not know the explanation for this. Perhaps I wasn't watching closely enough. Maybe they froze together when they were larger and for some reason the connections don't melt as fast as the other parts of the ice. More experimentation needed.

When the Titanic sunk why was the ice block there?
The icebergs had been drifting further South than usual.
Why is brownlow school open tomorrow?
because of all the ice drifting to town you would not feel it and because we don't have lot's of ice anyway

How does the layer of ice slows down the complete freezing of the water in the pond?
The ice layer act as an insulator.
Is Pluto made of organics and ice?
Yes and more the first layer is made of frozen nitrogen the secand layer is made of water and ice and the thired layer is made of rock
Layer’s of lord of the ring’s?
The layers of Saturn are impossible to get out of the top layer is called the Stratosphere then the Haze Then the Troposphere and the Ammonia ice and then Ammonium hydrosulfide ice and the last layer is the water ice that Frises you rocket’s on it making the rocket’s unable to start.
What planet have a slushy layer?
There is evidence that Jupiter's moon Europa may have a slushy ice layer below the hard ice layer, but we don't know this to be 100% accurate!Hope it helped.
