It MAY. If the ice is in the sunlight, a dark color will absorb heat, and cause faster melting. We spread wood ash on snow and ice in the winter to speed melting- darker colors.
yes! if the cube is clear or partially clear it will thaw quicker, but if it is whitish it will take longer to melt.
yes
sawdust
Not sure what you are asking here exactly, but Ice makers in the centuries before refrigeration often used sawdust to insulate ice blocks in the ice houses, to slow the rate of melting. And to prevent the blocks from sticking together.
The ice cubes get more radiation energy when in the sun.
Because ice cubes are less dense than water.
No - it is a mixture.
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.
Sugar has very little effect on melting point - it is too high molecular weight. That might answer your question, which does not make sense as written. Thus, it melts faster with sugar, because other ice cubes slow melting.

Ice cubes will melt faster in darker colour water than lighter colour water
No. The phase change requires adding heat, so melting ice cubes is an endothermic reaction.
Ice cubes explode in a drink because they are melting at a fast rate. The ice cannot contract fast enough to keep up with the melting, which causes it to crack.
Yes. Salt, for example, will speed up the melting of ice cubes.
At thirty-three degrees Fahrenheit ice cubes will melt in diet coke.
The dark fabric absorbs heat - which is transferred to the ice cubes, melting them faster.
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.
I don't know work it out!
