Not even close. It takes as much energy to turn 0 C ice into 0 C water as it does to heat water from 0 C to 80 C. The heat of fusion is very large. This is why ice cubes work so well in a drink. A little ice can cool quite a bit of water.

No, it takes more energy to turn ice at 0° into water at 0° than it does to change 1 degree in temperature.

No. Ice has less energy.

In order to turn ice into water, both at 0 degrees C, requires that you add heat to the ice to melt it.

That is why an ice bath containing ice and water stays at a constant 0 degrees C. If the bath gets a little warmer, the ice melts, if the bath gets a little cooler, the water freezes. As long as there is both ice and water, the temperature stays at 0 C.

This "latent heat of fusion" amounts to about 334 kJ/kg.

Nope. You can remove some of the energy from the water and make more ice at the same temperature.

yeh Pretzels right it will take 80 times the energy to melt a solid (ice) into a liquid without a change in temperature
