In the pictures above, someone is holding ice cubes; it feels cold and they begin to melt. Which of the following describes what is occurring?

As shown in the pictures above, the ice is absorbing heat energy from the hand and the surroundings, which results in the melting of the ice- a process of change of state from solid to liquid. The hand feels cold .

Note: The question is incomplete as it is lacking some details.

Explanation:

Melting is a change of state process which involves the change from solid to the liquid state. Solids when they absorb heat, change to liquids at a temperature known as the melting point. This change of state occurs because the molecule of the substance acquires enough energy which to be able to overcome the intermolecular forces holding the ice crystals together, as a result, the molecules begin to melt.

In the picture,the melting of the ice held by the hand is because the ice absorbs heat from the hand as well as from the surroundings . As a result of this loss of heat from the hand, the hand feels cold after. The process of this heat transfer is by conduction whereby heat is conducted away from the hand in order to melt the ice which is contact with the hand.

the cytokine-activated janus kinase (jak)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (stat) pathway has an important role in the control of immune responses. dysregulation of jak-stat signaling is associated with various immune disorders.

the sunflower because each experiment got the same results

hope this !
