My hypothesis is that a cube of ice with a volume of 1000mL, and a surface area of 600cm2 will melt slower than ice cubes with the same volume, but different surface areas of 616cm2, 738cm2, 1,4982cm2, an 2,569cm2. ... Which Shape of Ice Cube Melts the Fastest?

Factors impacting how fast an ice cube melts on a kitchen counter or in a glass of water: ... I'm also going to suggest that you use ice cubes made with the same volume of water that are the same shape. Filling the slots in an ice cube tray with equal amounts of water should give you nearly identical cubes.

Purpose: To find how the shape of an ice cube affects its melting time. ... Okay, you put all your ice cubes in water, and they melt, and you observe, and compare which shape melts faster. Or you put it on a plate, let them melt, and compare which shape melts faster. THEY'RE THE SAME! The importance is that ALL THE CUBES ARE...
