A biology class wanted to study the effect of different materials on the melting rate of ice. They placed pieces of ice, each with a mass of 10g, onto trays. Group 1 was covered in plastic, group 2 was covered in paper, group 3 was covered in aluminum, and group 4 remained uncovered. Each piece of ice was allowed to melt for 15 minutes.
