tin foil
rubber square
cookie sheet

Answer 1

Ice melt fastest on metals and slowest on plastic materials. As metal are conductive material, they allow heat conduction which cause ice to melt faster. Plastic, rubber and foam material are non-conductive. That is why ice will not melt fast. They are also acts as insulating material to prevent ic efrom melting. Below is list in descending order which show the melting of ice from fastest to slowest.

1. Tin Foil
2. Bubble wrap (paper)
3. Cookie sheet (plastic)
4. Rubber square
