Why does silver melt ice?

placing a real silver item on ice will cause the ice to melt a bit quicker. However, that’s not because of any properties in the silver itself; rather, it’s because heat melts ice , and silver is one of the best conductors of heat, according to Tom Chandler, a Metallurgical Engineer who specializes in heat treatable high-temperature copper alloys.

Explanation:

silver conducts heat from the room it's in

Explanation:

As Chandler explained on Quora, silver conducts heat from the room it's in, so even if the room is only slightly warmer that the ice, the silver will still conduct that heat and transfer it to the ice, and cause it to melt a bit faster than it would otherwise.
