Answer 2

When an ice cube sits out on a warm day and melts the heat goes into the ice

Step-by-step explanation:

When an ice cube sits out on a warm day and melts where does the heat go?

Firstly, temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body, while heat is the transfer of internal energy due to temperature difference.

When ice melts there is no temperature change. The heat needed to change it from its solid state to its liquid state any noticeable change in temperature is called Heat of fusion Q measured in joules.

Q=m
`L_(f)`

So the heat goes directly to the ice to change its state from solid to liquid without any change in temperature. Only to break its intermolecular force of attraction.
