Basically, the force supplied by a concrete compression machine is a definite value. For normal concrete strength application, say below 50MPa, the stress produced by a 150mmx150mmx150mm cube is sufficient for the machine to crush the concrete sample. However, if the designed concrete strength is 100MPa, under the same force (about 2,000kN) supplied by the machine, the stress under a 150mmx150mmx150mm cube is not sufficient to crush the concrete cube. Therefore, 100mmx100mmx100mm concrete cubes are used instead to increase the applied stress to crush the concrete cubes. For normal concrete strength, the cube size of 150mmx150mmx150mm is already sufficient for the crushing strength of the machine.
There is no standard size (or mass) for ice cubes and so the question cannot be answered.
If they are standard cubes - with numbers from 1 to 6 - the probability is 0.

The standard for concrete cube testing is to put the cube under increased pressure. The pressure is increased until the cube breaks and determines the cubes compression strength.
A standard box of Rogers sugar cubes typically contains 60 cubes.

I think due to the presence of Cao in the cement.... it may be the result of excessive drying of concrete cubes too...
The characteristic strength of the concrete is the compressive strength of the(fck) concrete cubes of size 150 mm tested at 28 days. And compressive strength of cubes should not fall not more than 5% of this fck.
If the number cubes are standard dice cubes, the odds of rolling 3 ones is 1 in 216.

It depends on the size of the unspecified cube size, and what and how they are to be used? More information is needed.

A regular can of 12oz coke has sugar equal to nearly 10 standard sugar cubes. see this website: http://www.sugarstacks.com/beverages.htm
