Why is the melting of ice a physical change? Change: There are three general types of changes in chemistry. Chemical changes occur when multiple substances interact forming new substances. Nuclear changes occur when the number of protons and/or neutrons in the nucleus change due to radioactive ...

Antarctica(南极洲)’s melting ice, which has caused global se a levels to rise by at least 13.8 millimeters over the past 40 years, was thought to primarily come from the unstable West Antarctic Ice Sheet(WAIS). Now, scientists have found that the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS)—considere...
MANY explanations have been offered for the electrification of clouds and precipitation involving effects such as the change of state of water between phases, selective ion capture, a thermo-electric effect in ice, the rupture of water films, induction charging when polarized particles collide, ...
Scientists have also scrutinised whether it is possible to block iceflow in Greenland with cables which have been reinforced, preventing icebergs from moving into the sea. Veil Albert Kallio, a Finnish scientist, says that such an idea is impractical, because the force of the ice would ...
