The right option is; c. total amount of water in the ice cube

Mass is an attribute of a physical body and a measure of the amount of matter present in an object. Mass is mainly measured in grams or kilograms.

The mass of an ice cube is the total amount of water in the ice cube. Ice is the solid form of water. For example, two pounds of ice cube will make two pounds of water after melting because its mass does not change. When in the ice form, the water molecules will spread apart and occupy more space or volume.
