Potassium and calcium fluoride are both metals
The density of ice does not affect the melting rate. But, adding an object does affect the melt rate. The reason this is is because when there is an object, there is less to melt. Hence, affecting the melting rate.
- formula for density is mass divided by volume
therefore density of butter = 10.0g divided by 11.6ml = 0.8620689 g/cm³ ≈ 0.862 g/cm³ (3sf)
