Does ice melt faster in air?

an ice cube melts faster in water.it depends on the temperature of the air or water, if the water is warmer than the room air temperature, it will melt faster in the water.


How does water change from a solid to a liquid please you just got to do my homework pleasezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?

WikiAnswers is delighted to assist in doing your homework. Water in its solid form is called "ice"; converting sold water into liquid water is called "melting". Below 32 degrees F or zero degrees C, liquid water will freeze into ice; above 32F or ZeroC, the ice will melt into water. So if you put an ice cube in a small bowl on the table, it will melt - as long as the temperature is above 32F. The heat of the warm air will be transferred to the ice, and the surface of the ice will melt. (The warm air will lose heat to the ice and become COLD air.) Depending on how much ice you have and the air temperature, this may take a few minutes or an hour or more, but the ice will become water. If you watch it long enough, the liquid water will "evaporate" and become water vapor in the air.


Does the ice cube melt faster on water or land?

The melting rate of an ice depends on the temperature of the surrounding. If the temperature is higher in the surrounding then the ice will melt at a faster rate and if the temperature is low then it will take more time to melt. The process of heat exchange is important whether it is air or water.


How long would it take for 1 cubic yard of ice to melt?

It depends on the ambient temperature, and the rate of air circulation.


Which ice melt faster in water or air?

Assuming that the air and water in your question have the same temperature, ice would melt faster in the water, as there is a greater degree of heat transferance in water due to its greater density.
