A student takes the temperature of a bottle of liquid water and a tub filled with ice. The student then places the bottle of liquid water into the tub of ice. After 15 minutes, which of the follow best describes what happens to the temperature of each? (1 point) Responses The temperature of the ice increases, while the temperature of the water decreases The temperature of the ice increases, while the temperature of the water decreases The temperature of the ice decreases, while the temperature of the water increases The temperature of the ice decreases, while the temperature of the water increases The temperature of both the ice and water decrease. The temperature of both the ice and water decrease. Both the bottle and the ice stay the same temperature

The best description of what happens to the temperature of each after the bottle of liquid water is placed into the tub of ice is: The temperature of the ice increases, while the temperature of the water decreases.
When the warmer water is placed into the ice, heat will transfer from the water to the ice, causing the water's temperature to decrease while the ice absorbs heat, causing its temperature to increase. Over time, if enough heat is absorbed, the ice may begin to melt.
