Compare the temperature of water as ice begins to form with the temperature of ice as it begins to melt

Sagot :

They are the same temperature.

If you have 1 gram of ice  at zero degrees C, you have to pump 334 joules
of heat energy into it in order to just change it from solid to liquid at the same temperature.
