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.
What happens to the thermal energy if you drop an ice cube in a warm drink and it melts?
As water and ice have different temperatures, if we add them together then there will be an exchange of heat, due to which ice starts melting and water becomes cold. The heat required to melt the molecules of ice is provided by the molecules of water and this heat is the latent heat of fusion.
Match the type of heat transfer to the example a conduction warm air moves toward the poles b convection ice cubes melt quickly on a hot frying pan c radiation the sun bombards earth wi?
Conduction: Ice cubes melt quickly on a hot frying pan Convection: warm air moves toward the poles Radiation: The sun bombards Earth with light
When ice melts from a pond in the spring what happens to the air above it?
It becomes congested with cool water vapor(fog).
Why does an ice cube that is dropped into a glass of water melt?
Because cold slows down the hydrogen and Oxygen atoms (H2O) in water, they become more compressed (frozen). Heat, or temps above 32 degrees, tend to excite these atoms causing them to move apart thus causing them to melt.It only melts IF the environment is above the freezing point...in Antarctica it might never melt.Ice cube melts because when the room is in its normal temperature that is bout 25 degrees it melts the ice and when the ice melts a few minutes later it evaporates
Does the shae of an ice cube affect how it melts?
If there is more surface area exposed to warm air it will melt fasterthan if there is little surface area exposed to warm air. heat transfer
When does ice storm happen?
Ice storms happens when a cold mass of air and a warm mass of air combine to create a ice storm
Does ice melt fastest in cold water cold air warm air or warm water?
Warm air and warm water. Cold air and cold water keep ice cooler longer.
How do you smoke ice?
becausen exposed by air

What happens when ice is placed in a warm glass of water?
The ice will begin melting and will cool the warm water.
If we put pressure on ice then how can it melt?
Putting pressure on ice can melt it by helping to break it up into smaller pieces, as happens when ice is crushed. Smaller pieces have greater surface area that can be exposed to warmer air.
When dry ice is exposed to the air it changes to a vapor.?
Yes.
What happens when warm drinks are in a tub of ice?
As time passes, some of the ice melts, and the drinks become less warm.
What happens to snow if ti falls through a layer of warm air?
They will fall to the ground as snow.If the air is warmer than 0 degrees celsius , the ice crystals will melt.

sublimation
