There is currently no way to reliably predict when an earthquake will happen, its strength or length. Earthquakes can vary in their magnitude, the size of the earthquake at its source, and length, lasting from seconds to minutes.
Research has shown, that shaking of an earthquake displays a characteristic pattern. After the first tremors start, building up in intensity, a peak is reached, followed by a fading shaking. Large and small earthquakes start the same way, but there is no way to say when the peak, the maximal magnitude of the quake, is reached.
Hi!
First of all, the melting of ice cream is not a chemical reaction, because there is no change in the components of the ice cream and if you freeze the ice cream again, you will get the same ice cream that you had previously.
The melting of ice cream is an example of a physical change, in which a substance goes from solid to liquid state, and it is an endothermic physical change.
When you freeze ice cream, the heat is removed from the ice cream, making it an exothermic process, when heat is liberated to the environment and it's taken away from the substance, in this case, the ice cream.
