QUESTION: How long does it take for an ice cube to melt in normal condition???

HYPOTHESIS: I think the ice cube in the sun will melt faste than the ones in the shade and the cupboard.

METHOD: 1.Put each ice cube on to three seperate plates. 2.Put one plate in a cupboard, on in the shade and in the sun. 3.Observe the ice cubes and record them every 5-10 minutes.

EQUIPMENT: 3 ice cubes 3 plates SUN ICE CUBE: 1/2 of the cube was gone after 10 minutes

SHADE ICE CUBE: 1/4 of the cube was gone after 10 minutes

CUPBOARD ICE CUBE: 3/4 of the cube was gone after 10 minutes

This shows the result of how the ice melts in ten minutes in the sun, the shade and cupboard cubes.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In conclusion i got my hypothesis right

MY QUESTION RESULTS: It took 22 minutes and 30 seconds for a single ice cube to melt in normal condition.
