Ice can melt to water without a change in temperature during a phase transition, where the heat energy absorbed is used to break the hydrogen bonds holding the ice structure together. This process occurs at the melting point, typically 0°C (32°F) for pure ice, where the temperature remains constant until all the ice has transitioned to water. The energy input during this phase change is known as the latent heat of fusion. Once all the ice has melted, any additional heat will raise the temperature of the water.

Does koolaid with water melt faster?

Depends on what you are comparing it to. For say, water with Koolaid and water without. Also, the temperature or the two kicks in.


Why doesnt temperature change when transferring from ice too water?

The thermal energy required to change state is taken from the environment; which in this case is the melt water.


Can you actually say water can melt do you not have to be a solid to MELT?

Water can melt if it transitions from a solid state, such as ice, to a liquid state due to an increase in temperature. The term "melt" refers to the change in physical state from solid to liquid, regardless of the initial form.


What is the heat of fusion for water is the amount of energy that must be absorbed for water to?

Melt.


How long does it take for 3 ice cubes of water to melt?

The answer depends on how large the ice cubes are, what temperature they are at the start, the ambient temperature, whether or nor the melt water is allowed to drain away or not, and so on. Without information on these factors it is not possible to answer the question.


Calcium chloride lowers the temperature at witch water freezes and can be used to melt ice on a city sidewalks and roadways. is that a physical or chemical change?

The use of calcium chloride to lower the freezing temperature of water is a physical change, as it alters the physical state of water without changing its chemical composition. When the ice melts due to the addition of calcium chloride, it is still water chemically.


What temperature of water is best for ice cube melt faster?

If Ice cubes are melting in water, the temperature of both the ice cubes and the water will be exactly the freezing temperature of water: 32F, 0C. You cannot change this. You can add heat to make the ice cubes melt faster, but the extra heat will have no effect on the temperature, It will all go to melting the ice cubes.


How do you calculate the amount heat required to change 5 pounds of ice at 32 degree to water at 32 degree?

80 calories of heat are required to melt one gram of ice without altering the temperature. There are 2267.96 grams in five pounds so you would need 181436.8 calories of heat to melt all that ice without raising the temperature.


What can melt rocks without changing temperature when their confining pressure?

The process of partial melting can occur in rocks under high confining pressure, where the minerals in the rock start to melt without the overall temperature changing. This happens because the pressure lowers the melting point of the minerals. The supercritical fluids in Earth's mantle can also cause rocks to melt without a change in temperature under the high pressure conditions.


What happens to the temperature when matter changes state?

Quite often, the temperature doesn't change. For example: if you melt ice, you convert ice at 0 °C to water at 0°C. You need to put heat energy into the ice to melt it, but its temperature doesn't change. (The change of state itself requires energy - this is a type of potential energy.)


What temperature does ice melt fastest?

Cold water will not melt the ice cube in record time, but hot water will, but salt water will also melt it fast, but if you add both together the ice cube will melt alot fast. Deceasing time alot.


Does salt water melt quicker than regular water?

water doesn't melt when salt is added to ICE it lowers the temperature at which water freezes.
